Several recurring characters from first two seasons, such as Valerie Gordon, Noogie, Ample Annie and Tommy, are dropped for the third season.

What happens to Elvis is never explained.

Appearances of Elvis, Crockett's pet alligator, are gradually phased out this season and he will only be mentioned in passing from now on (except for a picture in " Love at First Sight" and a flashback in " A Bullet for Crockett", both from season 4, and briefly during the closing montage of season 5's " Freefall").

As such, Stan Switek becomes a more focused supporting character, particularly in subsequent seasons, and handles the team's surveillance duties on his own.

Larry Zito dies in " Down for the Count (Part I)", and is not replaced.

Crockett's sidearm from season 1 and season 2, the Dornaus & Dixon Bren Ten 10mm is gone.

These will last only through this season.

Further to the fashion changes, Crockett relinquishes his beloved Ray-Ban Wayfarers for Persol 69218s.

Some of the new fashion even violates Michael Mann's famous "No Earth Tones!" rule that he implemented when developing the wardrobe for the show.

The pastel clothing is largely eschewed in favour of greens, yellows, blues and dark greys, a move severely criticised by fans at the time.

Tubbs' hair becomes short, whilst Crockett's becomes shorter and spiked in appearance.Crockett's car changes to the Ferrari Testarossa in " Stone's War" (although his Daytona, which is destroyed in the premiere " When Irish Eyes Are Crying", reappears mysteriously in " El Viejo", indicating the network changed the running order of the episodes).In line with the general tonal changes, the music that is featured shifts away from the popular, upbeat synthpop and soft rock heard in the first two seasons towards darker material, including new wave, electronic and metal sounds.The storylines, along with the general tones of the show, become grittier and nihilistic more episodes end abruptly after a violent climax that leaves numerous people dead, both good as bad alike.The pink lettering of the word "Vice" is also changed to purple. The Miami Vice logo in the opening sequence is illuminated in ice blue instead of pink.More so than at any other point in the series, notable changes to the show's format occur at the beginning of the third season.
