Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Yes, yes, yes! I think so many people struggle with this because they can’t let go of the simple fact that it’s NOT a guesthouse. It wasn’t conceived of as a guesthouse. It wasn’t designed as a guesthouse. It wasn’t built as a guesthouse. Thanks for clarifying this. So if some excentric billionaire...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

Just returned to the forum after a lengthy break, not suspecting anything (I admittedly have been living under a rock lately), and the first thing to read is about the remake (mixed feelings here), and then the shock about Pahonu. This website should have come with a warning! My first response was a...

Re: Guest Stars that never were

I agree with Richard Dean Anderson (was suggested above). Imagine him being locked up in the whine cellar and figuring a way out :) Also: Lee Majors, perhaps parking his truck on the estate and destroying some of Higging' flowers in the process :) However, the two (LM and TS) have met anyway in The ...

Re: 308 Ferrari hot item!

Was overtaken by one on a bicycle tour the other day. I was going uphill and slowing them down because there was traffic in the opposite direction, but when they accelerated to overtake :o definitely louder than expected! Perhaps, it is just me, but they probably tuned down the volume a little for t...

Re: Music That Reminds you of MPI (but wasn't on the show)

Not really an answer to the OP, but somehow related - I was listening to some music I had brought with me when exploring the islands in a rental, and there was that one song that was on when going to Waimanalo (I was listening to it quite a lot at the time). It has nothing to do with Hawai´i or MPI ...

Re: If the Magnum is Reborn, Then What Sports Car Gets the P

I'd say the most understated of all Ferraris is the California - convertible though, not a spider. I like them, too. The 250 GT California was used in Ferris Bueller's Day Off - seems they had a thing for red Ferraris in the 80s. But then, they are timeless... By the way, didn't the actor playing F...

Re: Props for sale

Speaking of which, is it ever mentioned or at least hinted where Magnum got his watch from? It is a rather expensive one, and Magnum is usually broke, he cannot pay his parking tickets or reimburse TC for fuel etc. Unlike the Ferrari, he actually possesses his Rolex. Was it perhaps a present from R...

Re: Holmes Is Where the Heart Is (4.18)

Fantastic episode. Well delivered by "Holmes" and "Watson", nice side story about Magnum trying to find out what Higgins is up to, but in this one, Magnum just had a minor role. Came across as somewhat dark, or at least melancholic, compared to other episodes. Well done, and it shows the versatility...

Re: Stories they could have done

[...] I would've liked to have seen some episodes that show us how Robin Masters and Magnum first crossed paths, or of how Higgins and Robins did as well. I also would've liked to have seen some shows that show what Magnum was doing in intelligence in the years following his return from Vietnam bef...
