Dire Straits Brothers in Arms - Miami Vice, Out Where the Buses Don't Run 

Miami Vice truly was a concept years ahead of its time. A concept that would only have worked in the magical decade that was the 80s. The cast, the cars , the settings, the soundtracks, the production and my personal favourite, the clothes. And for this reason I'm strongly against any reboot of this magical series. They tried it with the Colin Farrell movie which in my opinion was an embarrassment to the original version. A truly magical era in television.

A truly superb piece of television. This episode, Out Where The Busses Don’t Run is considered to be the Miami Vice ep that all others are judged by. Excellent acting, editing, direction and production and the final unraveling dark mind of Hank Weldon brings and end to a long story for he and his partner played by David Straithairn. Brothers In Arms is perfectly slotted into the ending, as has only been used dramatically in 2 other TV series, being The West Wings “Two Cathedrals” and the final ep of “The Americans”. Thanks for posting.

I remember watching this episode when it first aired, it was a warm Friday night a week or two prior to Halloween. Little did I know then I was witnessing a masterclass in screen writing and acting. This was by far my favorite MV episode. Kudos to all and to YT for allowing me to relive the culmination of the greatest 6 minutes in TV history

When you see Hank alone in a deserted street saying "Tony Arcaro is here where I am", you know there is something weird

What a haunting yet beautiful ending

one of the top 5 best scenes in the show and in all of the 80s!

Great memories of a great TV show, i wasnt really born in the 80's, or 90's. I was born in the early 2000's and i say my favorite decade is the 80's, and Miami Vice is my favorite, and i also like Magnum PI, but Miami Vice is at my heart.

It was a masterclass from acting, I don't know why this episode didn't win an Golden globe or thinking higher: An Oscar!

"I helped him build the wall. He was my partner! You understand? You understand!"

I know what you gonna need! Marty the Man

The best programme ever on TV 📺. Will never be matched. And was one of the first programs to be broadcast in the UK in stereo.

Michael Mann Masterpiece

EPIC... TIMELESS..

Don Johnson is a great actor. He reacts to Hank lifting that piece of metal almost point him with his gun.

Meilleur année 1980 la classe internationale ❤

Epic

Always felt it was a bit sanctimonious of Crocket to criticize the partner for helping cover it up. He would have done the same ,and expected the same from his own partner

👍👍

Alter... 1:13 ....jedesmal Gänsehaut...😢

compare it to nowadays....nothing to say.

What episode is this actually? I checked s2e4 but it's not

Who else thought it’s Patrick Bateman in the thumbnail

Goose flesh

You can feel the hot summer night, very atmospheric. It looks and sounds so that the music was especially written for this episode. Great piece of TV, one of the best ever. „He was my partner, you understand? You understand? Yeah“ gives me shiver…

Many many years later and I still get the chills watching this scene.

Even the Daytona just driving trough those empty streets, howling in the dark has something so sad and reliving. What a beautiful ending.

One of the best bits of television I’ve ever seen. Simply masterful.

who will ever beat this in TV future? No-one will ever get to that level where Miami Vice has been.

An incredible show that wavered a bit in later seasons when the actors were allowed to write and direct their own episodes but, as a whole, it was great. Truly a part of the '80s. Could you imagine it being made now? Crockette would be gay or trans, Tubbs would be a woman, Castillo would in a wheelchair-thank God Hollywood hasn't destroyed it...yet.

It were scenes like this which make this series immortal!

The perfect marriage of soundtrack and action.Beautifully powerful and evocative.

Ther Eighties were gold.

miami vice knew when to rip out the tunes for the scenes.

Great episode, great story, great sensations.... Every time I drive my car alone in the night I listen my music like this...just to try to feel the same mood

Something about this episode really took a back seat on the gangs and drug empire to focus on something more psychological horror based personal and psychological. Hank Weldon was clearly mental and to focus the episode on him was Eerie. The whole episode was. Even Crockett's 6th sense earlier. It made the Miami Vice universe seem like there's so much more to colourful clothing, drugs, fast cars and everything. Plus that reveal at the end was if Crockett and Tubbs didn't know what to do in the end. It was almost like they were dealing with something supernatural just by the mental state the characters were watching Hank Weldon be in.

So many memories of the 80s come back to me, the best decade, because an incredible amount of that time still has an impact today. Suddenly so many tears come to my eyes, from joy, from sadness... only this music can do that. Anyone who wasn't there may never be able to understand it properly...

I remember this episode. I was 6 or 7 years old. I was shocked how people can be cruel. And that sight of a person inside the wall follows me my entire life.

Miami vice must be the best soundtrack ever so many great songs

"Hank." "Tubbs, I got him, man. I got Arcaro." "You've got Arcaro? Hank, where are you?" "He's spilling his guts, man. Confession time. I thought you guys might wanna be in on the bust." "Arcaro's with you?" "Get the wax out of your ears, pal. Tony Arcaro is here, where I am. Not 75 feet away. Beige suit, straw hat. Dollhouse, middle of the block. 114 South Waters. You and Crockett want in on it or not?" "Go". "114 South Waters. Lieutenant, we're gonna need some backup." "I know what you're gonna need." ( These mist covered mountains. Are a home now for me. But my home is the lowlands. And always will be. Someday you'll return to. Your valleys and your farms. And you'll no longer burn to be Brothers in arms. Through these fields of destruction. Baptisms of fire. I've witnessed your suffering. As the battle raged high. And though they did hurt me so bad. In the fear and alarm. You did not... ) "Weldon!" (...desert me. My brothers in arms. There's so many different worlds. So many different suns. And we have just one world. But we live in different ones... ) "Freeze!" "Tired of waiting. Took him myself. Miranda-ed him. The whole drill. Funny. He's just a tired old man. Guess he's kind of relieved it's over. He spilled it all. He's in here." ( ...Now the sun's gone to hell. Hell. And the moon's riding high. Let me bid you farewell...) "Say hello to Mr. Arcaro." ( ...Every man has to die... ) "There's no one here, Hank." "He's right there." ( ...But it's written in the starlight. And every line in your palm. We're fools to make war. On our bro--...) "No siree, Tony! You're not getting away this time!" ( ...--thers in arms. ) "Book him!" "Hey, Hank." "Marty, we got him." "Yeah, Hank, we do." "You knew. You knew he killed Arcaro." "Yeah, I helped him build the wall. He was my partner. You understand? You understand?" "Yeah." UPDATE: Thanks for all the likes. Thank you.

Alle Darsteller sind hier die beste Besetzung die man haben durfte, für die beste Serie aller Zeiten ❤❤❤

The ending to this episode and 1988's 'Forgive us our Debts' are truly haunting. The music perfectly pitched in each case.

The best episode out of the entire five seasons. Like many earlier episodes of Miami Vice, this one replaced the usual fatuity of standard police procedural drama, with cold dark cynicism of the highest order. The ending was equally significant with its noir realism.

The series was (and still is) a masterpiece, that scene especially. Saw the show about 10 years ago for a very first time (re-watching it again just now), and that scene's been following me since then.. It's just.. I dunno.. but there's something superior about it - perhaps it's that Dire Straits' song following the characters who eventually discover the truth... It's just real good yet a sad scene. It made a very big impression on me back then, and honestly, it still does it today.

Pure Geordie genius of Dire Straits.

My absolute favorite episode and scene / song combined

I call it a Masterclass in cinematography

Was a teenager when this show was first aired. Miami Vice night was always accompanied by a pizza. This scene gives me goosebumps, such a great show. Please no remakes. The acting in this scene is amazing, even the way EJO just stares at the floor saying nothing.

Very much like the scene in Heat where Al Pacino pursues Robert De Niro. Mann is a phenomenal Director.

Tanks for posting.. a masterpiece.

Classic song episode

Best show ever and I still remember that scene from the day I saw it the first time 😊

Bonjour à tous il faut savoir que toutes ces belles voitures ont été saisie par la justice américaine et pretées pour le téléfilm c'est blufant .Yves BONNARD .Auteur les éditions du panthéon 75015 Paris.Assistant Juridique

Awesome music fade out at the end before credits roll!

I wonder if they knew at the time how groundbreaking and how good this actually was.

Miami Vice was the best resume of 80's and earliest 90's culture.

Great TV series,Well up when Brothers in Arms by Dire straits plays in this 🥺The acting along with the plot was Gripping ,Bruce McGill was brilliant as the unstable agent who suffers and finally reveals all come the ending ,Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas were also great in this.But all Credit should go to Bruce McGill who should have been given an Oscar for his performance.Still greet when watching this 🥺😪

-It Is So ULTRA CLASSIC Part. And Always Will Bee...

They don’t make television like this anymore….

Will we hear anything like knopflers guitar magic again I doubt it

The Americans have given this world many remarkable things and even millions of.movies and series i m from 2022

It's really cool to see how well this show has aged since i first watched them as a 10 year old kid.

Old best times ever

Nothing will ever match miami vice. Well before it's time i was 15years old when it came out .

I can say first time I saw this I couldn't see the twist coming

J ai beaucoup aimer cette épisode

I just watched the ending of The Grand Tour and they used this song with shots of the boys driving, it immediately reminded me of this episode and the Daytona driving.

Eyegasm & eargasm. #MiamiViceForever

Watched this when first came out

get the wax outta you ear man

I love the way the light from the police cars reflects on the walls and their faces. There's just something about those old rotary light bars that the modern LED's can't compete with...

The car soundtrack was a Ferrari Daytona but the actual car was a kit car,built on a Dodge Challenger donor car I think? Anyway Enzo Ferrari was watching this particular episode and heard the Daytona soundtrack then saw the kit car and was incensed? He rang up the producers and said if you’re going to use a Ferrari then use a real one,so he sent them a white Ferrari Testarossa and the rest as they say is history!

The greatest show ever to grace our TV screens in the UK. The Ferrari 365 GTS/4 Daytona......

This scene should be in a Museum of Art. Thank you Mr. Mann, you changed the TV for good.

That Were Awsom Like The Music❤❤❤

1:24 gave me goosebumps 😎
