Watched both parts the other day. The last time I saw it was in Feb. 1985 when on vacation in Maui. We were staying in Lahaina and remember getting ready for dinner with the TV on and it all fit with Magnum on the tube. The crescent moon was shining over the palm trees, and my pregnant wife was wear...

Aloha!

Nice little model. Do they sell palm trees too? :-)

Revell made a 1/48 (or maybe 1/24?) scale injection molded plastic model in the 80's.

Extras not withstanding... the thing that drove me crazy about this one was that TC laying in a coma in the ICU at the point of death. This should have been an INCREDIBLY tense episode, but the actors looked and acted like they were sleep walking. What a drag. Although Higgy-baby spending his dough ...

I enjoyed this story, the most remarkable thing being that Laura was able to act on her visions.

I don't think it usually goes like that - the rational part of me starts to poo-poo this kind of thing!

Seeing those shots sure make me smile! Ah, the water, the sky, the palms, the air... the state of Hawai'i!

Thanks Kev for sharing those pictures. The beach erosion is sure awesome.

Well the prequel plot line brought Star Trek back to the big screen, didn't it? I like the prequel IF it has to reboot the whole thing with new actors.

However, ahem, most of the magnum-verse wants to see the one the only Thomas Magnum in a movie!

Definitely not the greatest Mpi episode, but fun to see one of the older stars (Pat Hingle) in this one.

I'll bet the Norm comment was there to honor Cheers, though.
