In news\\u2026

There is a lot of news to talk about in the month and half between  Miami Vice episodes so lets rapid fire a few stories. On March 26 the  USSR held its first free elections, selecting Boris Yeltsin. On April 15 96 people died in a FA Cup match later called the Hillsborough Disaster. The on April 19 47 crew members of the USS Iowa died in an explosion in the Number Two gun turret. 

The biggest news of this timeframe was the Exxon Valdez  oil spill in Prince William Sound, Alaska. The ship struck the Bligh  Reef, spilling 10.8 million gallons of oil into the sound. Duo to its  remote location, the spill cover 1,300 miles of coastline and 11,000  square miles of ocean. Numerous oversights led to the disaster including  a drunk captain and the senior officer who was supposed to be in charge  asleep in his bunk. 

In Sports\\u2026

On March 22 goalie Clint Malarchuk  suffered a life threatening injury after two St. Louis Blues players  crashed into the net. During the hit a skate from Blues Steve Tuttle cut  Malarchuk\\u2019s carotid artery. Malarchuk lost 1.5 liters of blood and 300  stitches to patch the 6 inch wound. 

In Music\\u2026

In this time period there are technically five songs that would reach number one on the Hot 100, one of them I will skip until next time. First up is The Living Years by Mike + The Mechanics. This is one of many number one hits from the band who makes constant appearance in Miami Vice. 

Up next is The Look by Roxette and rounding out our rapid fire look back is She Drives Me Crazy by Fine Young Cannibals. The last song and the one I\\u2019ll spend a little more time talking about is Eternal Flame by The Bangles. 

From the album Everything the love song would be a worldwide phenomenon. The Bangles were perfect for the MTV generation and this music video played around the clock throughout 1989. 

In Movies\\u2026

As with music there are four movies that would claim the top spot at  the box office during this timeframe. First up is the unnecessary comedy  sequel Fletch Lives starring Chevy Chase'
