http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Tnyp9tRXRo Scene from the Miami Vice pilot, uses Phil Collins’s “In the Air Tonight.” Bill Simmons, in his pretty useful YouTube Hall of Fame, says: “Two great things about this one: First, it still holds up -- even now -- and "Vice" is about as dated as it gets. Second, up until that point, there had never been anything on TV even remotely resembling that scene. Remember, this was the same era when A) they were still freezing people's faces mid-laugh during the opening credits of any sitcom; and B) nobody realized that you could use music to accentuate dramatic TV scenes. So this was like watching Bill Russell block someone's running hook shot in the mid-'50s for the first time.” 22:11
