Re: 1980s Actors that you'd have guest star in Magnum, PI...
My picks would be: Meg Foster : She could easily be cast as a sort of character who you wouldn't be sure is on our heroes' side or not, and of course be a pretty welcome change for a love interest. Ken Howard : I'm actually quite surprised the late Mr. White Shadow himself never appeared! He was on ...

Re: Misc. MPI Newspaper Articles
"Surely the gimmick won't work. A flop." :lol: I didn't think there'd be critics who dismissed it this harshly. I guess with TS as the lead they wrote it off as a purely escapist show with no real point or weight to it. Also, that Burt Reynolds comparison is even more hilarious now, having seen "L.A...

Re: Legacy From a Friend (3.19)
Same. :D I didn't completely get how Marcus was killed either, as I thought Rose was blackmailing Mrs. Chase merely for her affair, and that Marcus had probably started ripping off Rose for the money. At least "Fragments" provided us with a formal explanation when Rick asked what exactly Archie's pl...

Re: Did You See the Sunrise? (2) (3.2)
Good point. Magnum killing Ivan is indeed a lot easier to hide than T.C. and his chopper, especially with T.C. still likely being on probation from "Thicker Than Blood".

Re: The Love That Lies (8.6)
Eileen Brennan is terrific in this, even if the big 80s hair doesn't help the already-heavy subject matter. :P And how has no one on here brought up Rick in drag pretending to be Carol yet? :lol: http://i.imgur.com/bwtNaMk.png (Excuse the play button there.) With that wig, he looks like a late 70s/e...

Actors you'd want to have guest-starred on "Magnum"
There were a lot of TV, movie, and frequent guest stars who appeared on a lot of other shows of the time but never on Magnum . (I'm guessing the location was a factor for some.) My picks would be: Meg Foster : She could easily be cast as a sort of character who you wouldn't be sure is on our heroes'...

Re: Misc. MPI Newspaper Articles
Thanks RG, at least Teaser's a better band name than Shnazz. :lol: Actually, while gay clubs are a standard comedic setting nowadays, it would be quite neat and progressive had Magnum featured a scene in one, knowing that the writers generally wouldn't resort to stereotypes. Actually, it would make ...

Re: Torah, Torah, Torah (5.21)
I love T.C.'s Island Hoppers apron too. :P Shame Universal never capitalized on that. :lol: Redbubble currently has several Island Hoppers designs but none on an apron as far as I can tell. Who wouldn't love that as a gift? :lol: I liked Rabbi Asher Solomon a lot. It's too bad he never returned to t...

Re: Misc. MPI Newspaper Articles
Great articles Rembrandt's Girl ! :D The buzz for Magnum seemed to be huge, especially coming off the heels of Five-O 's finale, but one can sense enough caution in these writers' voices that was eventually quelled by the show's success, likely exceeding everyone's expectations. It's so easy to forg...

Re: Photo Play (6.21)
I think the main thing that tips the scales for annoyance with Shelly is that Betty was at least a bookish, focused woman who ultimately just wanted to do the right thing. Shelly on the other hand seemed to talk far more and felt the need to comment on everything (smudged makeup, etc.). :roll: My gr...

Re: Misc. MPI Newspaper Articles
First of all Rembrandt's Girl , thank you so much! :D :D :D You went above and beyond! I've always been curious as to how she and Magnum met. :) Even though quite a few articles had been written at the time about Ceebs' 80s "rebirth" as it was, this is by far the best I've read so far. ^-^ And I rea...

Re: Misc. MPI Newspaper Articles
What I got from Roger's article was that it was racism towards African-Americans in the industry in general (although I can certainly imagine the other possibility as well), which while since improved, his remarks can easily apply today, sadly. :( Hawaii is a very different place from California, th...
