You are so right! This is a great site. It might have something to do with why MPI attracts us?! There is a great forum question on just that subject in the not too distant past. I think the site rocks for a number of reasons but mostly because people who like the show admire the values and relation...

What a surprise! I popped in Season 1, episode 12, Thicker Than Blood and the intro was the original version of the one we all associate with MPI. I think somewhere in You Tube world I pulled this up but really didn't know where or when it happened. They have refined it slightly for Season 2 onward ...

Thoroughly enjoyable episode with quite a few memorable moments. First, the new intro theme happens but not in it's final form. Still, it is much better than the earlier intro. Gorilla mask, Groucho nose and glasses, all firsts. We get to know TC better and start to see the depths of the friendships...

Worst review ever. The guy clearly has his own agenda. Probably never got past the intro or, at best, he watched a few episodes. I guess to be politically correct these days one must include "homoeroticism" as a category. Let's see...."The Beverly Hillbillies" scores a (-3) and MPI, oh golly, it's u...

I like Steve McGarrett going head to head with TM. I like the voice of Sean Connery as Robin Masters. Think of this! Had the writers chosen the guest stars better maybe they would not have had the letdown during seasons 5-6 that some of us experience. Heck! A two-parter with Jack Lord vs. Magnum.......

OK, I felt a drag during Seasons 5-6 but some of the episodes were excellent. I think what must happen is that the writers simply begin to struggle. "What can we do now?" They want to keep the ratings up, money, gotta keep working, etc., but they still struggle. They picked up the pace in Season 7 m...

I liked this episode more than most of the forum. Maybe it was because I was dumb struck by Rebecca Holden's classic beauty. Wow! Long red hair and stunningly blue eyes plus an exceptional figure. Again, she might be the prettiest actress to grace the series. Other than that.....what was this about?...

The only part I enjoy from Season 1's intro is the sound of the Ferrari starting up. The rest just sounds very generic. Is there anyone who doesn't like the intro from Season 2 onward!? In fact, I was at a wedding a few weeks ago. One of the groomsmen and I began talking. The subject somehow got ont...

golfmobile.......not worthless! Spend a rainy day putting it together as best you can. You need one to display and one in the box, unopened and shrink wrapped, a collectible. I'd bet you could sell yours on eBay just as it is. I have mine on display, still shrink wrapped. I agonized over whether or ...

Carol, I think you are correct. I'd bet the studio added the scene to avoid catching grief. I was in the Navy and served in 'Nam' as a helicopter pilot and I cannot envision anyone that was over there making a big deal out of it. That whole scene was a classic. One recurring character trait....TM ca...
