Re: Magnum PI in HD on ITV4 on SKY in UK today

Found some HD rips of Magnum from a german group... the episodes look fantastic that I've seen so far, not cropped and not upconverted from SD masters. So here's hoping for a bluray release or a possible HD airing here in the States!

Re: Current estate condition

I don't know what you're talking about; I would never send a letter telling her what to do with her house; maybe that was in an earlier post, I haven't read the whole thread. Anyways, shrug, I don't want to get in an argument, it's her house and she can do whatever she wants with it.

Re: Current estate condition

I agree, but it's pretty obvious from seeing it in person that it's in disrepair, but it's her house; who are we to judge. She also is an heiress, so I'm fairly certainly she has enough money to fix it up, but once you get to a certain age, you probably don't want to worry yourself with trivial thin...

Re: TV then & now

It amazes me how very good television was during the MPI production years & how deplorably bad it is today. Hawaii Five-0 coincidentally is the only show I can think of which comes close & interestingly is doing pretty good in a time when most television shows don't last more than a single season b...

Re: Magnum PI in HD on ITV4 on SKY in UK today

Found some HD episodes of Kojak on usenet, they look like the real deal; HD, full frame (not cropped). Hope MAgnum receives the same treatment!

Tom Clancy's Magnum script

IIRC, Tom Clancy was supposed to write a script after the show ended for a planned movie, which obviously never happened. Did the script get written and has anyone read it?

Re: Visit Magnum film locations

IS the guide being updated? Curious. Also, is there a different way to view it, like a list? Would be great to print it out for the next trip.

Re: Current estate condition

I haven't been there in about two years but I recall a lot of shrubbery that protects the house in a way that wasn't there during the show (for instance if they were on the lawn looking at the ocean, nothing was blocking their view, however now it's completely overgrown). If I owned it, I would leav...

Re: Seasons 1-4 are Superior to Seasons 5-8

I kind of noticed this too... perhaps it's because the show became routine; most cop/detective shows become dull after a while. Magnum is one of the few shows to have never jumped the shark; it was the same four guys throughout the whole show's run, no precocious kids added to show for comic relief ...

Re: Magnum PI in HD on ITV4 on SKY in UK today

Hopefully someone will record these and possibly share them somehow! :magnum: I'll be interested to hear if they're simply upconverts from the DVD masters, and if they're possibly cropped to 1:78 to fill the frame.

I'm half tempted to fly out for this event, I have enough miles on HA I think. I know both those guys make appearances at conventions here and there, but how cool would it be to see them in Hawaii and with the chopper too!

If you've seen Seinfeld in HD on TBS, you can see exactly how this effect would look like. From what I recall, you gain picture at the sides, but lose some on the top and bottom. I read that they mainly cropped the bottom. It's actually kind of weird seeing it in HD... it's almost unreal. I'd kill t...
