Ricardo Tubbs

Detective Ricardo Tubbs is one of the two lead characters of the NBC series Miami Vice, played by Philip Michael Thomas across all five seasons (1984--1990). A Bronx-born former NYPD detective who travels south to Miami to avenge his murdered brother, he is partnered with Sonny Crockett and -- after settling at the Miami-Dade Vice Squad -- brings a sharp-suited East-Coast street style that contrasts neatly with Crockett's pastels (Wikipedia)
