Magnum P.I. Quizzes @ FunTrivia.com

#1 Post by Sisophous »

I usually visit this website, funtrivia.com to take quizzes on Geography. But, I came across Magnum P.I. quizzes at this site that are fun to try out. I usually score just over 500, or, in other words, answer more than half correctly. Some questions are ridiculously easy if you follow this series and some are near impossible, like the license plate numbers of vehicles or the helicopter aircraft ID number.

If you want to visit this site, I suggest you sign up first before taking any quiz, then sign in, there is no obligation and it takes seconds. This way, all the quizzes you take will be remembered by cookies. It is also fun to compare your results with the average results of others who took the same quiz.

If you get a security warning pop up like I did after clicking on the link, click on submit. All you are doing is taking a quiz and cookies remembers which quiz you took.

Enjoy and let me know if you score perfect on any quiz the first time you take it, no cheating either. Only the first time you take a quiz does it really count.

Select Untimed game if the option is there, it is better than HTML as the untimed game addresses each answer you gave before going on to the next question.

P.S. If you click on "scores" for each quiz, most people go by the name of Guest if they did not register. Some retake the quiz and it shows if they repeated it.

Missed one: Higgins admitting he is Robin Masters in the final scene of the show. I said no; quiz states he did. I think I am still correct.
Fun, but way too easy!

Yes, I came across that question too. It explains what happened. Higgins originally admits to being Robin Masters and later denies it. So, the question is confusing.

Try the season Quizzes, they are much harder. I scored very low on Season 2.

Well this is going to just wreck my productivity.

First quiz was surveillance and I did OK, got only one wrong - the chopper serial #'s. Nailed the rest, well, one took two tries . . . I did think TM was Surface Warfare before going into NIA, but . . .

I got 7/10 on surveillance, how you knew the gift Magnum got on his 40th birthday and the Ferrari license plate number before it became Robin I is beyond my grasp.

Weird. The one where they said he throws with his right, so how would he swing the bat to the left or the right. I think that takes it from Magnum Mania to Magnum Stalker-a

Maybe it's random each time and it only gives you 10 at a time.

:lol:

Ah, OK. I had that one. I thought it was an Al Kaline bat question or something.

I agree. Since the final thing he says is that he is not RM, assuming he isn't, his earlier statement that he was wasn't an admission, it was misdirection. That's the only one I got counted wrong on too.
My essay "In Country: Place and Historical Connection in Magnum PI", about the importance of the Honolulu/Vietnam connection in the show:

That's three of us. I missed the same question and got a 9 out of 10 too. Lots of fun, though.

The question about Higgins admitting to be Robin Masters is confusing but he did admit to it and then denied it. So, regardless if he denied it, he admitted to it initially. I got that one right but was not sure at first.

I'd like to know how fans faired on the Season quizzes? They are far harder. I only did well on Season 4 and have not yet taken seasons 6 and 7.

Here are my results:

Season 1: 7/10
Season 2: 3/10
Season 3: 5/10
Season 4: 9/10
Season 5: 4/10
Season 8: 6/10
