Film and TV beauties. SAUNDRA EDWARDS.

Saundra Edwards (March 12, 1938 – June 2, 2017) was an American actress and model. Edwards was Playboy magazine's Playmate of the Month for the March 1957 issue. Saundra's acting credits include a few films such as The Crowded Sky (1960), Parrish (1961), A Fever in the Blood (1961) and many television roles on shows such as Sugarfoot, Hawaiian Eye, Cheyenne and Maverick. Having previously been married, at age 16, to Lorin Kopp, her business manager, with whom she had a daughter (Camille, born in 1956 and a son, Steven, born in 1959), Edwards married actor Tom Gilson in December. on November 8, 1961 and had a son named Thomas S. Gilson Jr., who was born the same day. She separated from Gilson in August 1962 when he became abusive and violent towards her, after which she moved in with her sister and brother-in-law. On October 6, 1962, Edwards killed Gilson with a shotgun blast to the heart when he broke into the house where she was staying. A coroner's jury later ruled the shooting a justifiable homicide. The scandal, however, abruptly ended her acting career.

“Miami Vice:” The Series Finale

Crockett and Tubbs embark on one last rodeo before parting ways in the series finale of “Miami Vice.”

Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas, as they appeared in the series finale of “Miami Vice,” titled “Freefall.” (NBC)

It was the show that hit it out of the park. Starting with a timeless pilot episode directed by Michael Mann, theme composed by Jan Hammer, and stars Don Johnson (Crockett) and Philip Michael Thomas (Tubbs), “Miami Vice” encapsulated the height of 1980s fashion and pop culture.

They routinely went undercover in Miami’s criminal underworld as members of the fictional Miami police vice squad. They also drove nice cars (Ferrari Daytona and Testarossa, Cadillac Coupe de Ville), dated beautiful women, and Crockett lived on a yacht in Biscayne Bay called St. Vitus Dance (most recently docked in Key West).

It was a life of vice, and they were just living it.

The last episode of “Miami Vice,” the 21st and 22nd of the fifth season and 113th and 114th overall, first aired in prime time Sunday, May 21, 1989 on NBC.

In “Freefall,” Crockett and Tubbs are recruited by the feds to protect a corrupt South American dictator involved in illicit drug trade, as the two find themselves increasingly disillusioned with the work of vice.

Original supporting cast members Michael Talbott (Stan), Saundra Santiago (Gina), and Olivia Brown (Trudy), as well as Edward James Olmos (Marty), appear in the two part, two hour conclusion of the series.

Some Miami Vice-related links from Tubi (free, no login req, works best on desktop) that y'all might find interesting!

^ At the 53:20 mark is a segment specifically about Don Johnson and Miami Vice, including old photos of DJ and an interview. Apparently in the early '80s a diverse group of actors and rockstars used to get together every weekend to play Trivial Pursuit!

The rest of the doc is very good too btw, and DJ is in more than just that segment.

Johnny Carson Show Interviews

Tubi lacks a comprehensive or even complete listing of episodes for this show, so these actually took a while to find. imo, JCS is cringe and so are these interviews, but they are historically fascinating

Don Johnson - aired 9/25/87, 17:03; one of two appearances

Saundra Santiago - aired 9/17/86, 28:35; one of seven appearances (JC liked teasing ditzy women)

Philip Michael Thomas - aired 4/25/86, 24:25

You can probably find these and the missing ones on YouTube as well.
