Re: Find Me a Rainbow (6.18)

To clarify, I do know above all (and what I meant before is) that the main cause for these accidents is driver disregard for motorcyclists and it's awful. :( I don't know if Magnum's dive for the football into the bushes is the first Chariots of Fire homage (probably not), but it's certainly one of ...

LOL! I like that, but I can see why the writers went with the Henry Higgins reference.

Also, I have a feeling that if Magnum took his prize vacation, Higgins might not even let him have the time off. :lol:

Re: The John Hillerman Thread

A little while back I saw him in Paper Moon (1973) and What's Up Doc? (1972), with the former film definitely showing him significantly balding before Magnum . In the latter film as the hotel manager he actually does what Higgins failed to do and kicks out the young trouble-attracting guy. :lol: Cin...

Re: Carol Burnett

D'aww. ^-^ I have a Cairn Terrier mix who's nuts but lovable. :P Yeah Ceebs' guest shots definitely vary significantly. Gomer 's are great, as are any of her shots on Lucille Ball's shows, SVU , Mad About You , Hawaii Five-0 , and others I'm probably missing. :P If you're looking for an 80s Carol fi...

Lol poor Higgins. Every one of his digs at Blanche went right over her head. At least Magnum always understood what Higgy Baby was saying. :P

Re: Past Tense (3.5)

Anyone else notice that Higgins' explanation for telling his stories to a shot T.C. was so T.C. wouldn't slip into a coma? In "Under World", Higgins' stories are exactly what rouses T.C. out of his coma. (Granted, it was because T.C. didn't want to hear said stories anymore, but it's heartwarming no...

Re: Find Me a Rainbow (6.18)

Higgins: "Oh. My. God. Magnum! What are you doing here? Leave the premises E-ME-diately before someone sees you!" I don't know why, but that scene always cracks me up. I think it's the way he acts horrified that someone might actually see Magnum there. :lol: LOL! This despite Magnum actually being ...

Re: The Welcome Wagon

Hello! Been on here since February but neglected to introduce myself. I knew about Magnum since I was a child but didn't watch it regularly until I was about 16-ish. Then MeTV (then KVOS) took it off their schedule and I got into other interests for the next few years. Then in 2013 I had eight teeth...

Re: Magnum on Blu Ray!

Hopefully Universal will indeed restore Magnum like FF has (I assume FF would have had to contact Universal for licensing purposes anyway). The only way I could imagine the qualities being different is if it were like a movie and had been owned/released/distributed by different companies depending o...

Re: Limited Engagement (4.5)

My question with the ending is, couldn't the cops just simply go back to the Fountainbleu to arrest the sisters? :P
It's like an easier version of the "Tran Quoc Jones" ending. :P

Re: Let the Punishment Fit the Crime (4.17)

To add, for those who don't know, Olga Marr (Sylvia) also played Lady Ashley in season two's "Computer Date". EDIT: Magnum says earlier that the terrorist group "[wants] Britain out [of Hong Kong]", even though the handover talks were going to make that happen anyway. Maybe Britain wasn't leaving fa...

Re:

Sir Cedric was involved in talks surrounding the, at the time, future exchange of Hong Kong between England and China. Eric and Sally was part of a group who preferably saw that Hong Kong remained under the British crown. I always thought that was a little weird. Not that pro-government or pro-colo...

Re: Let Me Hear the Music (5.18)

Is it just me or do the opening credits to this episode have louder drums? I watched the opening to the previous episode for comparison. I know sometimes the opening theme would be altered slightly for only an episode, but this instance isn't mentioned on the episode page. :?:
