It seems this was the last straw. https://twitter.com/MagnumPICBS/status/1089707130351964160?s=19 I guess the reminder of his inferior product was too much for his weak psyche. You horrible monster. Expect a visit from the Twitter trust and safety council. Seriously, what's wrong with this? Lenkov ...

Thank you! Just 1 question to all critics: How high are the chances that we will get anything better MPI than what is currently running on CBS? This question is baffling to me. Are you suggesting that critics modulate their opinion based upon the likelihood that they may not get something "better M...

I am truly stunned. https://www.cbs.com/recommended/news/1009029/cbs-renews-three-new-shows-for-2019-2020-tv-season/ I am not surprised it was renewed. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if it were to continue for three or four more seasons. It just needs to hit a target in terms of viewership to kee...

It's possible, but I think you're giving the writers too much credit. It stops at imitation, which is just enough to call it Magnum, PI. The operative word here, as it usually is with reboots, is lazy: "What's the absolute least we can do to fill a time spot?"

You, sir, have got your priorities straight.

Whoa, I just looked out of curiosity and the complete series is now $29.99 (in the US, for me) on iTunes. Get it while you can!

Nobody is forcing you to watch it, so change the channel and let those of us who enjoy both versions of Thomas Magnum continue to do so. I proverbially changed the channel after episode 2, but will continue to criticize this lazy and pointless reboot. How do this prevent you from enjoying it? If yo...

"deeply unnecessary"

I can only voice my emphatic agreement.

What’s funny is I’ve been talking a lot of Burn Notice as a contrast to the new Magnum, as generally better, but one thing I used to make fun of about Burn Notice was the pedantic over explanation in the voiceovers, always starting with “When you’re a spy...” or "when you're [insert spy activity he...

MiniMag narration: Now, typically when I open the car door it is so that I can get inside. Then I close it behind me so that I don't fall out as I drive. But today, it's a little different. I'm opening the car door so that I can get out. Then I close it behind me so that no one steals this expensiv...

I've seen most if not all of the episodes so far and find myself annoyed when they go into detail about things like the surfski. The original series had a certain level of trust that viewers could paint their own picture of why Magnum did this and that. This new one seems to want to explain every d...

Convincing.

You can watch on cbs.com, like I did tonight.

Oh sure, there are other options. But I can't get interested enough in the show to bother.
