The longish hair, rookie mistakes, and VW bug make this a fun one along with the 'early' TC and Rick. Cindy Pickett (Karen Teal) certainly could have returned to the show I think, but settling TM down would not have worked. The Michelle story arc is huge and long across TM's life... and I don't thin...

The Parade interview is a good one...

Now if we would only get an update in a few months - "Tom Selleck to Produce Magnum p.i. Movie"

Dream a little dream.

Well... HI! Hope that Magnum hasn't taken over your life too much. I've gotten almost done with season 4, and season 5 is waiting. But I try to hold my obsession to one or two stories a week. I try to savor the Magnum-ness. I hope that you are enjoying your 1980s trip - no cell phones, no Facebook, ...

I wonder if TS would consider buying some of the rights to the show to make a made for TV movie?

One way to make it happen. I know what you're thinking...

AND from my "read" on Tom Selleck's quotes I think HE REALLY WANTS TO PLAY MAGNUM AGAIN!

A wonderful script and one that showed that Higgins could have his own show! As a long time Holmes fan (I have the Annotated Sherlock Holmes 2 volume set by William Barrie-Gould copyright 1967) it was great to see a Holmesian mystery, inside a Magnum p.i. framing story, with Jonathan Higgins playing...

Just don't tell me that Magnum was really Robin Masters too!!!

"Who's Dot Matrix and what has she got to do with this?" One of the best guest star lines...

I always liked anything that Eugene Roche was in!

This Tom Selelck quote was in last weeks's TV Guide mag: Would you like to play Magnum again? I keep hearing about a movie. Universal has the rights, and they don’t call and they don’t write. That said, if you took a poll tomorrow as to who should play him, I can almost guarantee I would win. My fea...

Ms. Laurie Foi who was in two episodes (Did You See The Sunrise & Try To Remember) suffered a stroke recently on Oahu but is recovering. She played, respectively a nurse, and the hostess at the Crouching Lion Inn in those shots. From the Star-Bulletin: LAURIE FOI, the local casting agent for ABC TV'...

I've realized that when I mute the sound over the end-of-scene images of waves, etc. I can "hear" Mike Post's familiar theme from a certain show.

Rick dodging over the lava filed looking like he was running on eggs... Egad! Carol Channing in a punk club? The 'drama' of Rick over his sister's death was so unrealistic. Only when TM gioes to see Higgins and tells him what has happened is there any believable emotion. And 'they had it coming' whe...

Idea for a TS cameo:

McGarrett and Dan-o are on the beach walking to see whomever, as a figure on a surf-ski comes ashore. McGarrett gives the guy a wave and says "Hi, Thomas!" Dan-o asks "Who was that?" "Oh, he's a retired p.i. Used to run all over the island."

Did you watch Five-o last night. What did you think?

It certainly started with a bang. How many bullets got fired in the episode? A lot! But interesting characters, even if Grace Park's gal was a bit light on the dialog, I think.

Hawaii is back.

I read in the paper today (Sep 20) that we will see more of the characters back stories and that McGarrett will be "flawed."

Now where have we seen that before??? I suppose that modern TV productions can learn from the past.

I just bought Seasons 4 and 5 at FYE at a 60% discount. So this episode, as always, packs a punch. For me it is one of the top 5 or 10 Magnum shows. The flashback scenes are all tied into the present with clever words or pictures. Bellasario wrote this so it is very well done. But why in the world d...
