The In the Air Tonight Scene is arguably the most memorable and famous scene from the Miami Vice television series, and is regularly cited as one of the greatest, most influential moments in the history of television. It occurs in the pilot episode Brothers Keeper, or, when the episode is split into two parts as it often is for syndication, Brothers Keeper (Part II). Miami Vice was considered revolutionary in its music, cinematography, and imagery, which made large segments of each episode resemble a protracted music video. A good example of combining these three aspects is found in this episode when Crockett and Tubbs are in the Ferrari Daytona Spyder, driving through a damp, nighttime Miami downtown heading to a somber showdown with a sinister, murderous drug lord as In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins surrealistically plays along. As Lee H. Katzin, one of the series directors, once stated, The show is written for an MTV audience, which is more interested in images, emotions and energy than plot and character and words.[3]
