On September 28, 1984, Miami Vice made its premiere on NBC, and a new kind of cop show was born—one in which grown men weren’t afraid to pair pastel T's with white Armani suits, music was an integral part of the storytelling, and pet alligators and sweet Ferraris were all within reach of an undercover narcotics officer.
The show, which for the most part still holds up today (well, the first three seasons at least), is also famous for giving a break to dozens of then unknown young actors who’ve since moved from the underbelly of South Beach to the top of the Hollywood A-list.
Here are 27 of them.
