Re: Pilot to Ep2 Ratings and Beyond

I have watched the first episode, and about 20 minutes of the second episode. None since. Evidently people do watch.

Re: Just got blocked from FB page

What FB group is this? I saw a few.

Amazing how sensitive people become when someone disagrees with them. I was booted from another group by an overzealous admin who reminded me of the grade school hall monitor.

Re: Just got blocked from FB page

I have been here for like 8 years. I was told on the FB page that Magnum used a kit car over a corvette and i said they where wrong, and that they used the 308, and Miami Vice used a corvette. After that i was banned. Wth! I didn´t want to start a storm. I thought one of the kit cars was a Fiero un...

Re: What would a sequel look like if Magnum ended w/ Season

Some of this has been discussed before. It would be so easy, and wouldn't alienate most of a generation.

All they have to do is introduce Magnum's daughter as the new "Magnum" or central character.

Re: The Lads

I just got a doberman. This dog, even at 11 weeks, is scary smart. I also learned about something that happened in the 80s called the Magnum effect. They are worried it will happen again, but I think not given the "redo" is so terrible. https://www.ildoberescue.com/featured-slideshow/the-magnum-p-i...

Re: Who owns the DVDs?

I just think people could get the DVDs and not worry about what is aired and when.

Who owns the DVDs?

I see posts of people waiting for Magnum on Encore and other TV. Since many seem to be diehard fans, how many don't have the DVD sets? I bought them all at once about 15 years ago and have watched all from start to finish many times, taking two or three every other night or so. The best part was, th...

Re: Jesse Stone on Bluray

I got the whole set on DVD really cheap somewhere - maybe Walmart. The whole set wasn't more than $30 I think. Problem is the chronological order of the movies weren't in order on the disc, so you kinda had to figure that out. And the audio for the first part of one movie was really bad. But it was ...

Re: OTHER SHOWS YOU ARE WATCHING

I couldn't get past 2 episodes of the Magnum redo. But I watched Fauda (Netflix), Collateral (Netflix), and Body Guard (Netflix). I highly recommend Fauda. The lead actor and producer was a member of the IDF. The realism is there. Plot lines don't always end after an episode. I discovered Crossing L...

Re: Aloha Magnuma- Larry Mannetti's tell all book

Maybe I'm missing a thread that already exists about this book but I just received it as a birthday gift and can't wait to read! It was written by Larry in 1999 and is currently out of print. It can be purchased on his website with his autograph (I'm very happy as mine is one of the autographed cop...

Firstly, I apologise if this has been posted before. I did have a quick look through this thread, but didn't see it. I just came across this on YouTube.

Re: Let Me Hear the Music (5.18)

This goes down as one of the few episodes I couldn't follow. I watched it a few months ago and even after seeing it maybe a half dozen times I still couldn't follow it.

Re: T. C.’s Island Hopper Helicopters

You can scrape a skid on the ground. That is why they are called SKIDS! When we do autorotations, the helicopter can typically slide 10 or 15 feet before it stops. Typically the rotor craft flight manual does not recommend run on (sliding) landings any faster than 30 knots. But landing skids, and t...
