I've always pondered the "Robin Masters Theory". There were many inconsistencies that would lead you to believe he is not Robin Masters for the duration of the show.

Thanks for the replies! In retrospect I thought about the reasons why I have such a strong affection for Magnum P.I.. Sorry if I came across as bitter in my original post (but it is kinda hard to NOt when thinking about what your life may have been like living in Hawaii!). Upon more thoughtful intro...

I'm not sure with Rick and T.C., but I'm quite sure their age was never mentioned. It's obvious they must be about Magnum's age, but it's never said. In real life Manetti (Rick) was born in 1943 and Mosley (T.C.) in 1938. UPDATE: I'm watching Season 7 on DVD and in "Death of the Flowers" Rick revea...

Well, Tom Selleck was born in January 1945, so in when Magnum PI premiered in 1980, he would have been 35. Diandra, I believe he's asking about the characters ages, not the stars real age. It seems that most character's ages are younger than the actor/actress who plays it! But not Jonathan Quayle H...

Oddly he plays basically the Jeff Spicoli (Fast Times) character in Magnum and now he is pretty hippy-dippy nowadays. He comes across as very selfless but obvs this doesn't always work as others will take advantage of you (see Euro Migrant Problem), but his heart is in the right place. But maybe tha...

They all look late 30s but I can't tell. His love interests are clearly in their 30s though but I would like to know what the ages of Magnum, TC & Rick were.

In "Murder 101", which I am currently watching, I noticed that a unique name popped up, Tom Shadyac. He plays a stoner student in Magnum. I recognize the name because he is now a famous director who has made like 100 million as a director who lived lavishly but decided to live a simpler life and mov...

I liked all the episodes with Luther Gillis, private detective.

I always had a problem with Higgins being Robin because there were several episodes where Robin would be addressed by others in third person as not being Higgins. Unless Higgins hired people to make-up such stories. On the other hand, it would also be a good idea for Higgins to pretend he wasn't Rob...

I mostly agree about what you said but I think what made Magnum really great to me is the perfect balance he seems to have in his life: adventure, friendship, relaxation & lack of technology. By adventure I don't mean getting shot at but the "newness" that was always around the corner. However, i do...

I love the idea of life like it was back in the mid-80s being like Magnum. I have had Magnum fantasies for at least 20 years!!! I am not even kidding. I remember getting flashbacks of episodes watched back in 1995... - The friendships seem stronger in the past where at best you had an answering mach...
