Just finished Evan. For those who haven't had a chance to see it yet, I'll post the link in the comments where I found it.

I had first heard some vague plot point about the episode when I first started watching the show earlier in the year, and then I got to season 4 and realized I hadn't watched that episode, then found out it wasn't on most streaming services. Finally got a chance to watch it, and it's definitely got to be in the top 3 episodes.

Really moving, great visuals and cinematography, great storyline. It was great to revisit Season 1 Miami Vice after getting through almost the entire series. Now all I've got left to watch is Freefall.

I'm wanting to do a backpacking loop that starts here. I heard someone say you could overnight park where the trail to the east intersects with the road, and also saw a blog (from 2014) saying they were able to overnight park at the Cade's Cove store in that area.

Does anyone know anything about where you can overnight park to access this trail from this area? Thanks!

It's interesting watching through this series for the first time. I kept hearing things like Season 3 starts to drop off or feel different, and Season 4 really drops off. I get where that comes from, but in a lot of ways Season 4 felt like a return to classic MV for me.

Maybe I just have forgotten how good S1 and S2 were by comparison during this watch through. But besides the obvious bad episodes, there were still some bangers in S4, as well as some pretty good ones.

IMO, the great episodes were:
Death and the Lady, Child's Play, God's Work, The Rising Sun of Death, Baseballs of Death, Indian Wars, Deliver us From Evil

The good/decent ones:
Contempt of Court (not a great choice for the season premiere though), Amen Send Money, Vote of Confidence, Honor Among Thieves, Hell Hath No Fury, Blood & Roses

I was whatever on the Sheena Easton episodes, but appreciated that they built up to a larger story arc.

The bad, obviously: The Big Thaw, Missing Hours, Cows of October. Also Bullet for Crockett since it was just a clip show.

Although I still had fun watching Missing Hours, since I had heard about it and was kind of excited to see how weird it got. Also, I love Miami Vice when it's serious and cool, but some of the stuff people might consider campy, cringe, or dated, I still enjoy because of just how over the top 80s it is, lol.

I'm gonna be standing on the beach staring at the water and listen to Godley & Creme's "Cry" when i finally finish the series.
