| Crime Story | comment |
This 1986–88 NBC crime drama was Michael Mann's darker and grittier answer to Miami Vice, set amid the dregs of 1960s Chicago and later Las Vegas. Detective Mike Torello (Dennis Farina) and his band of roguish officers track mobster Ray Luca (Tony Denison) as he goes from small-time racketeer to casino mogul. | |

Good Is Not Nice | |
| Crime Story / int_21f3aa44 | comment |
Good Is Not Nice: Torello. Subverted if you're a victim, but God help you if you get on his bad side. | |

Breather Episode | |
| Crime Story / int_80a247a9 | comment |
Breather Episode: Lots in the second season, most notably "Pauli Taglia's Dream", which was part clip show, part "how we got here" and pretty much all slapstick comedy. | |

Black-and-Gray Morality | |
| Crime Story / int_8767b1f3 | comment |
Black-and-Gray Morality: Luca and his crew are unequivocally bad, but Torello and his band of officers kill at will and defy legality to catch the bad guys. | |

A Day in the Limelight | |
| Crime Story / int_9c8701b5 | comment |
A Day in the Limelight: Again, lots more in season 2 where they fleshed out Torello's crew. Luca even had one, where he was arguably the main protagonist dealing with a business too shady even for him, Hollywood. | |
