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...

You are missing nothing.
(I watched the first episode and maybe 15 minutes of the second and left it there.)

Re: Operation: Silent Night (4.10)

This is one of those episodes I remember when it first aired on TV. One of my favorites.

Also, it's one of the episodes where Magnum doesn't do any detective work, which the writers always seemed to do a good job with.

Re: This Island Isn't Big Enough (6.16)

Contrasted to other episodes, I didn't think the characters showed a believable concern or urgency for a friend who was missing - other than the trip to the morgue. It's like everyone was going on about their business. You would think they would think Rick was dead and had been tossed overboard (whi...

Re:

I am sorry, but I really didn't enjoy this episode very much. Maybe I had expected it to be more like the real Indiana Jones and Selleck would be more like Harrison Ford. I havenät seen this episode for years though, but I recall I didn't particularly liked it. Wasn't it to much humour, too funny? ...

Re: Pleasure Principle (8.2)

Good episode with one flaw - they didn't have to play the Conga every 8 minutes.

Re: Any boaters?

My second boat was a 17' fish and ski. I spent a lot of time in it but eventually had to sell as I ran out of time to spend on it. While 17' is a good size, there is a big difference in that and a 21' (or more). I personally wouldn't take mine out beyond 5 or so miles. My advice, and I'm serious......

Re: T. C.’s Island Hopper Helicopters

Anyone notice during the chase scene at the end of Distant Relative how close the skid comes to touching the ground? A few feet lower and that could have been disaster.

It also appears in the opening sequences.

Re: The Eighth Part of the Village (3.4)

Question. When Magnum goes to get the crate, he is unable to drag it from behind the line over to the van. He later tells Higgins, “There weren’t any books, just her.” She can’t weigh more than 130 pounds. Why was the crate so heavy? And if the crate was supposed to be full of books Higgins had ord...

Re: Magnum PI APPEARS to be Leaving Encore...

Just get the DVDs. There were a few episodes Encore missed airing for whatever reason.

I just finished season 8. About every other year, I start with season 1 episode on and go through them all. Funny how many things you never saw before.

Re: I can't watch this

There was no way a Magnum remake was ever going to work. As I've said before, it is a show of it's time and can't be transplanted to the modern day. The world has just changed too much culturally and politically. What is Magnum without Vietnam, the Iron Curtain, a WW2 father figure etc? Just anothe...

Re: Should I move to Oahu?

A lot has changed since the early 80s. About 10 years ago I considered this (work there at one of the bases) but after really studying everything, doing some dry run calculations, just couldn't justify it, much less actually really afford it. I don't have school age children anymore, but at the time...

Re: So . . .

In my opinion, they blew this really bad. I got into a debate with a person on another board who had argued this reboot was for a "new generation" of audience they intended to go after. Ok, then why try to redo it to begin with? Why not incorporate story lines from the original series, and have this...
