I agree the dialog was powerful. The Vietnam war was very political. Many people dodged the draft and later proclaimed themselves experts on the subject (Bill Clinton and others). It took guts to fight in this or any other war. It took no guts to run away from duty... We are free today because of o...

Me too. Christmas Vacation is one of my favorites. Great movie.

Awesome RC! Thank you for taking the time to create that list of places to see.

Merry Christmas everyone.

I doubt he was a US citizen. I rememebr in the pilot ep. he said to Magnum not to put ice in his whiskey..."I'm not a bloody American!" I may have it slightly off but that what I'm remembering. Higgins may not have been a U.S. citizen when he made the "I'm not a bloody American" comment, but that d...

I just wondered who everyone thought was the better bar boy for the KKC. They both did basically the same job just two different actors. By the way, don't let Keoki's criminal actions influence your decision :P Since Rick is the manager of the KKC, I'd have to say Moki , because it was Keoki who fi...

Mike, Okay, obviously Michael's memory was off. However, there was this one: http://media3.dropshots.com/photos/136319/20081206/143322.jpg But it's not yours either. Wonder which episodes the pocket knives he did have and this fixed blade knife WERE used in . . . . golf This is a photo of a bayonet...

only looking wrote:Hey guys I can't seem to remember or find the episodes that Magnum wears his UDC cap or the episode where he wears his Detroit Tigers AWAY cap..The one with the ornage D instead of white.

I believe Magnum wore the Detroit Tigers away cap only once in "Squeeze Play" (season 4).

I was just watching Elf on USA network and a promo for Monk came on with the Magnum, P.I. theme called Monk, P.I. , with similar font for the creidts used in Magnum, P.I., similar intro, etc. It had Monk driving a red convertible mustang, Monk using his finger as a pistol, etc. I wonder if the produ...

2. After Magnum becomes trapped under the plane and he sees the spider web for the first time, you can tell the web is a prop, which looks to be made of fishing line or string. The web is very symmetrical and flawless in appearance. However, when you see the shot of fly struggling to escape and the...

Check this out... Joy is apparently a fan of Judas Priest! She has a Judas Priest songbook with her (along with a "Feelings" songbook). LOL! http://magnum-mania.com/images/4_21_w.jpg http://magnum-mania.com/images/4_21_v.jpg That would have been great if she had ripped through a piano version of "L...

When was Rick a POW/MIA? I thought it was Cookie who was being held by Ivan along with Magnum, TC and the imposter Nuzzo. Rick didn't join the team until later.

I always thought that Higgins had Dual citizenship. In "Pleasure Principle" Magnum implies that Higgins is a U.S. citizen, when Magnum becomes suspicious of Higgins' relationship with Rosita. Carol asks Magnum "Have you ever considered that maybe, just maybe, she likes Jonathon?“ Magnum says “Yes, I...

However, on the other hand, as long as MPI stays popular and the DVDs keep selling, then he gets a cut of that, right? And we all know how much he seems to need money (or says he does anyway). Actually, I think I remember him saying recently that he and the other actors do not get a cut of the DVD ...

As a former wrestler and wrestling fan I can say that the wrestlign stuff in this episode is really silly. They didn't even bother to get the names for the moves just somewhat right, though I like that they hint that it's not "real", something that was a big no no back then, and could get you beat ...
