Re: Forever in Time (8.5)

Just re-watched this one and I was struck again by the Vertigo elements - but I also thought I saw an accidental stray punch? When Magnum is thumping Branscombe during the fire toward the end of the episode, it looks as though he accidentally glances a blow to Victoria's hip during the follow-throug...

Re: All Roads Lead to Floyd (1.13)

Always funny watching Magnum struggle with Floyd's tiny car :D Someone correct me if I am wrong but one of the questions on the MPI quiz in another thread asked about the fact that TS/TM could not put the top on the Ferrari because with the top on he couldn't fit in it. I am only 6'2" but there are...

Re: Poor colour/contrast on DVDs

Ace thread - glad we have MPI on DVD of course, but seeing the dip in quality is a real shame too. Still very interesting.


Do later seasons have a big quality shift?

Re: Italian Ice (2.16)

Forgot how funny it was that Higgins started to tell a story on the phone, even while shot, lying on the floor and bleeding!

Re: Quiz

Cool!

Got 32 - can't remember all that I missed, but I chose TSM III and that was one of 'em.

Re: Top 10 all-time favourite episodes

During my next series re-watch I'm going to list my top three after finishing each season; sort of a Gold-Silver-Bronze kind of thing. It's just a different way of putting personal favorites out there and this also gives me a chance to give episodes that might otherwise be left out of my top ten. A...

Re: Dead Man's Channel (2.2)

I thought the epsilon did explain Rick and the boat? He was using the boat as a venue for illegal gambling for some shady characters. I meant more along the lines of they didn't explain why Rick was doing that. They alluded to his betting on sports and having connections that could tell him about a...

Re: "How To Be A World Class Private Investigator" - List?

Found 3 more rules but I can't quite be sure if I remember the episode correctly - 90% sure it's from Almost Home (3.11) which is the one Kathleen Loyd first appears in, (not playing Carol though.) Again, he didn't number these rules but called them 'cardinal rules' (and I'm paraphrasing a bit too) ...

Re: Little Games (5.12)

Great ep, I'd forgotten how much fun the final twist was.

Part of me wonders whether she'd have checked the box/case/felt the weight difference? But if she was stressed out about the job (as the episode set up earlier) then why not?

Poor Magnum, unlucky again
