On the eve of his 60th birthday, Magnum retires from the Navy with full honours having had another distinguished career including involvment in both wars in the Middle East and a stint in anti-terrorism. He decides to head to Hawai...

"Just why does this series mean so much to so many? Do others experience the same great sadness as I do, knowing that we will never see these great actors again as they were in the Magnum series?" Great question Lily. Things I like about the show are wish-fulfilment angle, the action and adventure, ...

Brilliant beginning to this episode. At first we are led to believe this will be this week's excuse to involve Magnum in a case but then we see the Ferrari at the bottom of the cliff... The Amnesia is handled well with Magnum never actually having it being an interesting plot twist but it's the char...

Really enjoyed this one. One of the things I'm liking about the show on this go round is how they slightly skew established TV cliches. So far we've had some stock stories that appeared on every 70's/80's Cop/detective show and yet Magnum PI has put a nifty twist on most of them. Plots like "Falls i...

Whilst the plot telegraphed the bad guy from quite early on I really enjoyed this episode and am surprised this isn't rated higher. The show received many accolades for its portrayal of Vietnam Vets, and rightly so. In this episode we get to see a character depicting the more commonly held conceptio...

Watched this one last night with the kids. Really enjoyed it. Some excellent interplay between the characters (Rick & TC especially), and some very good characterisation (Magnum acknowledges that it would be childish to engage in a race with Digger - and does it anyway!), the magnificent rescue of H...

Just wanted to say 'Hi'
Newbie alert! Just wanted to say what a great website! I watched Magnum when it originally aired here in the UK and then it dissapeared until a rerun in the early 00's when I caught a few episodes. To my surprise the show still held up very well but it being on every morning at eleven am meant I mis...
