I'm new too and have learned so much from the episode listings which can be found from the main page. The forum is a very relaxed group. I haven't seen any flames in the brief time I've been a member. Have fun!

Watched it tonight. One of the best. Action, history, romance, great Higgins-Magnum-Rick-TC interplay. I think Agatha says it best at the top of this page. This style of epsisode is why in syndication and DVD I gravitate toward the early years. I think the series is really starting to hit stride at ...

Even the rock band KISS has to change their logo in Germany because the SS in KISS looks too much like lighting bolts. But editing MPI. That's the worst I've heard yet. It's not that the SS look like lightning bolts, they're exactly the same design as the Nazi Schutzstaffel. That's a no-no in Germa...

What or when is the watershed Jay? The last time I was in Scotland (2001) I thought there was no censorship in the UK. I remember some local show on the hotel tele, with a Scottish punk rocker who beat the crap out of his girlfriend, terrorized the neighbourhood, and swore every second word. Canada ...

A real life Higgins?

I have always thought Higgins military record, achievements and VC were a little over the top. Nobody could have served in so many theatres in the war not to mention MI6 and his other post war services. Of course this is all after his being sent down from Sandhurst and having to work his way up as a...

Funny story about the Tecumseh statue. I actually had that as a flub initially! Thankfully somebody corrected me (I can't remember who it was now)! So you see, the site is really a big "Peer Review" project! At least we can still nail TC for that left handed salute in his picture with Alexis in Par...

I love the seller's marketing pitch. From the listing:

'Earrings are large about 3" in diameter, and would look great with todays fashion.'

Yeah right! In a pig's eye or is that ear.

Yes Styles, likely a vendor started it. Look what else came up by following the links: http://cgi.ebay.com/COSTUME-SILVER-ACRYLIC-EARRINGS-MAGNUM-P-I-TV_W0QQitemZ160270809391QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item2550e2792f&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116 Egads!

Found another link for those not in the US. You have to remember that there was an actual fiber cereal commercial on TV at the time that this skit parodies: Edit: I removed the link to the other non-US site. Although it looked good to Norton, I didn't like the add-ons that it asked to run after play...

The last of the 80s fun

Just like there are no half hour sitcoms, no 1 hour shows like Magnum, comedy is also in the tank. Clever stuff like this doesn't happen on SNL anymore: http://www.hulu.com/watch/10304/saturday-night-live-colon-blow This was from November '89, just before we slipped into the TV abyss of the 90s.

Carmen,
I'm in the suicide camp with you. That's exactly how it hit me.

Two things you gotta love about this episode:

1. Smoking in a hospital bed.
2. Nurse Wilson. (She's hot and I read she sings too)

Could it be that she turned the scalpel on herself? She did agree with Magnum that it was over. I think it's great mystery to leave us guessing.

Thanks, I didn't know about the mocking up of the injury. I agree it's poorly done if this scene is an indication.

Yes, I'm sure they are money pits. Maybe that's why we like the show, because a down to earth guy like Magnum can have all the toys we can only dream of, without the headaches.
