Re: Sexism

Have to be honest I don't see the point of this point other than to perhaps troll? Because let's be real here Magnum is a guy's show. It has always been a guy's show very much like The A Team, Knight Rider etc. There's certain aspects that only the male audience would appreciate and there's nothing...

Re: Recent Passing of Stars

Just saw George Maharis passed away at 94 earlier this week. He played Buz Murdock on Route 66 along side of Martin Milner. I saw that also. Didn't know he was a prevert. https://y.yarn.co/3f15b8a3-1af5-4d78-935b-9ade6e880beb_text.gif Hi Chris, I usually enjoy your posts, they are fun, and when you...

Re: Recent Passing of Stars

Not making a call on this one, but after not being convicted of the murders, he was convicted of armed robbery. https://www.npr.org/2021/12/15/1064465486/oj-simpson-early-release And he paid his debt for that one. But, since he's been out... https://blacksportsonline.com/2021/08/o-j-simpson-says-he...

Sexism

Totally forgot about this shot until I watched it again and got me thinking. How many sexist (sexism) events or comments occurred during the run? I can come up with 2 off-hand, well, actually 3. First, the old slap on the butt. https://i.imgur.com/yRUrNqw.gif And then Edwin Clutterbuck and TM. Clutt...

Re: COVID19 Protocol

At the very start, we canceled all engagements. Two weeks? Sure, I'll do "two weeks to flatten the curve." But then it turned into 3 weeks, then 4, then ... by 6 weeks I told my wife that this was never going to end, and we were done. We have lived our lives like normal since 6 weeks in. There were...

I went back and looked at the beginning of this thread. It started THREE years ago. I don't mean the thread particularly, but this whole bullshit virus thing. "Do as you're told!"

Re: It Got By The Censor/In Jokes

FCC Chairman Newton Minow famously termed television a "vast wasteland" during a 1961 hearing before Congress. The proud king of lowbrows, TV producer Sherwood Schwartz, took offense. He had his revenge two years later when he created the pilot for Gilligan's Island(which no doubt even now is perpl...

Re: NHL Playoffs

I can't remember the movie, there was line in it from one teen to another that would have fit into this discussion. Sometime in the future, 50 + years(?), one kid said to the other something to the effect, "We'll be dead by the time the Maple Leafs win another cup."

Re: NHL Playoffs

Used to be a HUGE Canadiens fan. I remember when they were really good in the 70's-80's. But as I got older, I got tired of the non-stop cheap shots and pushing after every whistle. I didn't even know they were in the finals 2 years ago until after the season was over. When all that crap went down ...

Re: COVID19 Protocol

I had the same experience with Bond unfortunately. Not sure if it's a language barrier or just sensitivity thing, but the responses often seemed unreasonable. A shame. He loved Magnum and was a good contributor. I apologized, told him to come back and that I'd never bug him again. Wasn't enough. Yo...

Re: “Paper War” Poll

Watched Paper War for the first time in a while today while working out. I’ve evolved over the years. Thomas was way over-the-top from the get go. Overly childish and kinda rude and hurtful too. Used to side with Magnum. :magnum: Realized I’m now Team Higgins. :higgins: Here's to Uncle Otis https:/...
