Re: Find Me a Rainbow (6.18)

This was one of the many episodes where Magnum's client lies to him to get to some other hidden agenda and he has to solve the case while sorting through all of the lies on both sides. This one was a little sloppy about it because not everything ended up adding together, but I liked the overall stor...

Re: Tran Quoc Jones (5.9)

I actually rather enjoyed this one. There was a lot going on in the episode, but they made it tie together fairly well by the end of it. I didn't really have an issue with the Tran Quoc Jones character being annoying. I thought he did a fairly solid job with it. I'm not sure if this counts as a flub...

Re: The Black Orchid (1.16)

They never explained a lot of why Windham would send guys with loaded guns that fired shots if he was simply looking to "scare" Magnum and his wife. It was also unexplained why the one sister wanted to murder her sister. I could only guess at there being mental illness. This was also not so much of...

Re: The Black Orchid (1.16)

This one was REALLY strange. I couldn't come up with whom had the bigger mental disorder between the sisters. Both were, clearly, not on good terms with reality. Then Magnum did not fit the profile of what was needed for the "game" yet was hired and paid triple his normal fee. While I felt the episo...

There were various types over the years. Also pickled egg is another one.

Re: Magnum and pizza ....

The entire plot of "Professor Jonathon Higgins" revolved around Magnum having won a contest from Mama Pegorri's Frozen Pizza.

Re: On the Fly (7.15)

This was a pretty good episode. It blended some comedy in with the action and drama pretty well. It was also interesting to see Magnum wanting to pick up a steady job so far from Hawaii. The part I didn't totally enjoy was Magnum's landing the plane played mostly as comedy. I wouldn't mind some come...

Foods on the show

There were often a lot of scenes where food was involved. Magnum was seen eating everything from steak to ice cream. Can we come up with a complete list of the foods eaten during the course of the show?

Re: The Life of Robin Masters

I'd like to think that Robin continued to operate as he always had. Hawaii was just one of a number of homes he had and he rarely was in Hawaii so he probably wasn't too worried that Magnum finally left the guest house. He, likely, hired another security expert and went about his buisness of writing...

Re: Your favorite comedy episodes?

I think "I Witness" may be the best pure comedy episode. Usually they'd blend the elements together, but this one was strictly for comedic purposes. "Pleasure Principle" is also a really great comedy episode. They wanted to tone it down with how serious the previous episodes had to be. Higgins and M...

Re: One More Summer (2.17)

This one was really a mixed bag for me. I am not a fan of American football at all so the story wasn't going to appeal to me all that much based on that. Taking that into account, I found it to be pretty poorly done. I can see Magnum being hired to help protect this player that used to be his back ...

Re: Favourite Higgins Moment?

I enjoyed it when Higgins was tied up and had Zeus bring him the phone and then explained the situation to Magnum while the lads worked on his bonds.

Re: Paniolo (6.8)

This was a really interesting one. They managed to get all of the main cast together on a different island through different means. It makes sense to me that Magnum would be hired and have to travel to one of the other islands to do the work. Not every case could be done so that he could swing by th...

Re: The Elmo Ziller Story (2.21)

This was not bad as a comedy episode, but it didn't seem to know if it was going more for comedy or serious. I always find it odd when Magnum has a case where someone's life is in danger yet he treats it as a huge joke. I can see him thinking it was at first, but to accept the case (and presumably t...
