I dare say that one of you might be tempted to photo shop and post a hairy chested Juliette Higgins. But as that would be like putting a Magnum mustache on
the Mona Lisa, it's safe to assume we are above that here as it would have been at good old Boxley.
Seeing there was no Boxley Finishing School...

And yes, that is TS actual hair. I do not skimp.

We all did. But, in the haze of many, many rum and cokes, all of the 'ladies' looked good.

Frankly I am speechless! To quote Higgins, "Even for you Magnum(Chris109) this behavior is bloody outrageous!" I guess we can count ourselves lucky
you didn't add hair to Miss Weeks armpits. I'm sorry but I am compelled to rat you out and report this appalling breach of taste to current Magnum Mania Maven
ConchRepublic and the Super Secret Magnum Mania Star Chamber.
And with any luck, one day soon a outraged Perdita will cross your path and give you a good licking.

Higgins blurts out a rather tame OMG when she sees the dirty Ferrari which suits her character, but still doesn’t seem right when you think of JQH yelling it. She still has the moves when it comes to the fight scenes....I think they stretched it when Juliette kicked some butt with her hands zipped tied behind her back though......she couldn’t beat the terrorist with her hands free, but tie them behind her back and look out.....Lenkov taking it too far again! The girl is definitely in shape though.
Hi Kenji,
In my humble opinion the only time this series comes alive is when Perdita Weeks is on screen. In addition to her good looks, she is, as you note, "definitely in shape"
and she is one of those stars, as they say in Hollywood, the camera loves. She is also one of the few real actors to appear, probably because
Jay's acting chops suffer by comparison and it is distressingly apparent he is too callow to carry a TV series and the Selleck legacy.
As many Magnum Mania members suggested before we even knew how Magnum junior would be presented, it should have been about Lilly Magnum.
Perdita has the both the acting chops and arresting sexual appeal to carry it off and unlike with Jay nobody would be missing Selleck's hairy chest.

Hi Dobie,

I agree with you that Perdita is the star of this (sad) show and a Lily spin off would've been the best route for this reboot.
I wonder if Lenkov and CBS are thinking the same thing now. :wink: :lol:

If they did, would she be speaking French with English subtitles?
