If I can count two parters, I'd vote for Did You See the Sunrise then.

Cheerio.

I'm taking this to mean the best non two-parter or two hour show. Unfinished Business. I still believe this would have been a better finale than "Resolutions." Though of course we wouldn't know that TM rejoined the Navy. Now if someone votes for "Home from the Sea." We'll have the three best (IMHO)....

I don't remember the exact first time I watched, But I do remember watching "Did You See the Sunrise" the first and discussing in in JR high school with buddies. If I remember right, MPI both first run and syndicated was a big part of my High School experience. Would Syndicated eps have been on afte...

I think this is part of why the show the works, these characters are best friends, a friendship forged in war. Even Higgins gets included in this as the show develops. These guys don't just tolerate Magnum, the love him. They love him a lot more than the annoyance of his mooching can ever offset. I ...

I like this episode as well. I only wish that they had brought Joey up in other episodes of the series.

What if MPI was made today?

Stemming from thoughts generated in another thread: What would Magnum PI have been like had it premiered current day rather than in early 1980s?

I'd like to think that JAG or maybe even NCIS would give us some hints. But perhaps not?

Thoughts?

I for one believe that the ferrari is overated as a show element. I am clearly in the minority in this belief. I think that the show would have worked without the Ferrari or the Hawaii location as well, so long as they had diffentiated it from the gamut of other cop shows in southern california. Per...

Quoted from N1095A above (clearly I did it wrong) Magnum's MIA bracelet had the name Kenneth Ray Lancaster, and here is Lancaster's story: SP4 Kenneth R. Lancaster was a team leader assigned to Headquarters & Headquarters Company Long Range Reconnaissance Platoon (LRRP) of the 9th Infantry Division....

I agree that TM re-upping in the USN was a shock, but wasn't that the point? they could have set it up better of course --i.e. a visit from a still serving buddy - one who was not in trouble - and a long talk over old dusseldorfs would have been a nice foreshadow. Or maybe even a marine buddy of Joe...

It seems to me that this was a subplot that developed later in the series and that is why there are so many conflicting references throughout the series. However, it could be that the JQH as RM was retconned late in the series. So are the inconsistancies just because they didn't decide to make him R...

Another Vote for the Bridge on the River Kwai. Though the rubber chicken was the first thing I thought of.
