Dennis Farina (1944-2013) worked for 18 years for the Chicago Police Department before a consulting job on Michael Mann’s Thief led to a lengthy acting career. Often cast as a cop or a crook, he had sizable roles in films like Midnight Run, Get Shorty, Out of Sight, and Snatch, and regular TV roles on Crime Story and Law & Order.

I always liked him in Miami Vice.

He was born on February 29th. So by the time he died, he only had about 17 birthdays.

Dennis Farina was not on Miami Vice. I believe you are confusing him with Edward James Olmos

According to imdb Dennis Farina was on just 3 MV episodes. I don't remember him being on it either, but it has been 30 years since I watched that show.

3 episodes out of the 112 episodes that ran on TV. I guess that makes him regular on that series :rolleyes:

I always thought he did a great job with what he was given to work with. The format change and the shortened versions I didn't like.
