Not quite as macho as the NFL, but a small feature on TS is in the current Good Housekeeping magazine. The subtitle leads me to think the author (and editor?) may not be quite as familiar with Magnum as all of us are (badge?!?) ... **************** Man of the House: Tom Selleck "Magnum P.I." may hav...

I can't seem to figure out how to get a link to just the video, but on tvguide.com, there's a video about "best return to tv" in 2007, and TS is one of the top ten. Won't spoil the fun and tell you where he landed, but if you go to his page at: http://www.tvguide.com/celebrities/tom-selleck/177210 i...

Yes, Golf -- actually, quite coherently! I guess that not getting the Sleuth Channel was the really big missing link!

Thanks -

OK, I give up! I've read this entire thread and still can't figure out which Tom Selleck pilot it's all about. Was it something called The Chinese Typewriter? I'm confused!

My 12-year old son was WAY impressed when I pointed out the Mrs. Krabbappel "link" when we watched this episode many months ago. I think that connection alone has made this his favorite Magnum episode ever! Wait till he gets a little older and discovers the attributes of Erin Gray, Dana Delaney, and...

OK, maybe it's a bit of stretch to classify the Ferrari as a "cast member," but it seemed to fit when I found this article out on the Web. It's on a number of Websites, but I pulled it off KCRA.com ... TV Cars Race For Title Of Most Memorable Craig Clough, Staff Writer On Feb. 17, fans of David Hass...

Yes, Golf, I heard/saw it too. But I was spacing out, in a cold-induced fog, watching the stream of OJ pouring out, when my husband said "Isn't that Tom Selleck doing this OJ commercial?" Good thing for the hubbys, eh? I guess I'll keep mine after all!

If anyone is interested, I came across a Magnum PI Message Board on aetv.com, which contains a lot of information about the Halifax filming of the Jesse Stone movies, including "Thin Ice." I think it originallly turned up via a Google search, and then when I went back to look for it, I had a heckuva...

I got curious and checked out ebay -- and there are actually quite a few copies of the DVD available -- with very low bids on them, go figure!

Perhaps this helped TS fund his portion of the country club purchase: "LAKELAND | The Florida Department of Citrus hopes its new OJ ads will have a "magnum" impact of sales. "Tom Selleck - perhaps most famous as the star of the long-running 1980s detective show "Magnum, P.I." - is returning to telev...

Yes it is. The info about the sale of the club was at the end of an article that started off with:

... during this weekend's Target World Challenge at Sherwood Country Club in Thousand Oaks, ... With Tiger Woods hosting - and leading - the event ...

From avocados to a country club. LA Biz Observed notes that: David Murdock, the octogenarian billionaire and health enthusiast who owns Westlake Village-based Dole Food, unloaded Sherwood [Country Club in Thousand Oaks] over the summer for $20 million.

Just stumbled across a 2-year old interview, which included this Q&A: Zap2it: With the first season of "Magnum, P.I." now out on DVD, and the second season coming in April, are you glad the show is getting its due that way? Selleck: I was a little worried at first. Our first season, there was a musi...

Anyone else notice the resemblence between Magnum, GI and Derek Sanderson, Hockey Player for the Boston Bruins back in the seventies. Now that you mention it ... And did you know that Derek Jeter's middle name is "Sanderson" and he was supposedly named after The Turk, because his parents were big f...
