That was probably for the best. You never know, some 10th-or-so generation Lads could have been on patrol and wound up chasing you across the property.

Re: New Sea Quartz!!

Congrats on the Sea Quartz and the signed book! Sounds like they would make a great photo together. It took me a while, but here's a couple pictures of what I'll call my study, complete with a little Scotch. :higgins: https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/fa/7e/7xMrNqmH_t.png https://thumbs2.imgbox.com/3e/a2/...

Re: New Sea Quartz!!

I received my Momentum Sea Quartz last week and I'm very happy with it.

Coincidentally I also received my copy of Larry's book "Aloha Magnum" last week too. And as I've seen mentioned in another thread, it was autographed (thanks Larry (and Nancy))!

Re: Season 5 Episode 6: Dead Ringer (5.6)

It was hard to see the address clearly, but it looked like Kalanianaole Hwy. was right to me and Wamanalo looked incorrect as you mentioned. It was hard to see if the "i" was missing or not in Waimanalo.....it was a bit of a blur. Having said that I was squinting too when she flipped the envelope o...

Well played, with regard to the image above from "Paper War"! I'd try to add something along those lines, but I'm no match. :wink:

It took me a few tries to interpret this part. First I wondered if the Lads had bitten off some fingers, ears, etc. :shock:

Re: US Blu-ray release of the complete series, March 22nd, 2022

Sorry if this has been asked/answered before...but, which Blu-ray set is best? I’ve read before that the Fabulous Films Blu-ray set from 2016 has original, uncut/unedited episodes...whereas Mill Creek’s set from this last year (and the previous DVD sets) used syndicated reruns for the episodes. But...

Re: The Unique and Iconic Bond Between Magnum & Higgins.

I'm predicting that later on in season 5, the two of them will have a big argument one evening. Magnum will get really drunk that night at La Mariana, and end up sleeping with a girl that works at a copy/print shop. After one close call, Magnum ultimately can't keep it secret from Higgins, and they ...

Re: "Special Magnum P.I. Catch-Up"

To clarify, the part where each cast member thanks the fans, as in the video linked in another thread on this site, wasn't shown on this clip. It did start with a general thanks to the fans and pointed out that's largely why there is a season 5, but the main purpose of the clip was to show each cast...

"Special Magnum P.I. Catch-Up"

Some NBC stations aired a 3-4 minute "special Magnum P.I. catch-up from the whole cast" this weekend. My DVR caught it overnight Friday night/Saturday morning just after 1:30am. The cast remarks were in the same set-up as the video clip of them thanking the fans, but thankfully not in the vertical c...

Re: Magnum pi on getTV

Late notice... but the pilot episode/movie (2 parts) started a bit ago. The frame is vertically squished (with horizontal bars above and below), and horizontally cropped (but by a miniscule amount). It also shows more compression artifacts, though that could be specific to my local affiliate. To com...

Re: New Sea Quartz!!

Thanks Philip Jennings! A great name from another fantastic show! Thanks, it seemed all the good Magnum, P.I. names were already taken on here. That, or I'm just not very imaginative. So I went with basically the same time frame (January 1981 to December 1987, fits well within the MPI time frame), ...
