It has always seemed to me that there has always been a "tension" in the Magnum/Carol relationship. Carol is "interested" in TM -man to woman- while TM is only interested in her as a friend. I had this sort of relationship once upon a time, but I digress. It sort of echoes the Agatha/Higgins thing, ...

What a great set of characters: Ex Navy Seal who lives off the generosity of a world class writer and shuns authority. Lifelong British Army Solider in the employ of the same world class writer who worships authority. Nightclub manager who has ties to the Mob. All American Football player now Millio...

Has it struck anyone that TCs house would have been awfully expensive?
Perhaps he played a few years in the NFL after Grambling?
Or he comes from money?
Or his helicopter business is ALOT better than the show makes it out to be.

I have a photocopy of this article which I got from Television: The Critical View. New York: Oxford University Press, 1976, 4th Edition, 1987. In college a communications prof referred me to it, but it took me a while to track it down. I found it in the library at grad school. the article spends con...

Prior to Deja Vu, I imagine that there was a "scene" between Higgins and TM in which Higgins described the appropriate dress while in England. He undoubtedly got Magnum to buy/wear it by threatening him with Ferrari, tennis court, Wine cellar et al privileges.

He probably earned a fair bit of money while in the Navy. He may have a reasonably sized bank account. He did always seem to have money when he NEEDED it. Just not when TC or Rick wanted him to have it.

I watched this last night. Great episode. Some of the best Higgins/Magnum moments here. In the scene toward the end with TM talking about paradise, he alludes he specifically came to Hawaii to get away from the horrors of war. Is this flub: When Clutterbuck arrived at the estate to tell Magnum that ...

I love the idea that Robin Masters made his money in high tech, rather than as a novelist. Maybe he owns the Dallas Mavericks too.

I think this is one of the things that makes MPI (and MPI fans) so great. This same sort of thing turned up on an old list your top 10 eps thread too: There are so many episodes, in different styles, done so well that many different people have different favorite episodes. By my count there have bee...
