Selleck is in the Kutcher movie where he is a spy marrying/married to Kathrine Heigel.....can't remember the title...........is this a valid possibility or just the result of someone trying to put 2 and 2 together? Maybe the connection on this movie would net getting a Selleck appearance in the new ...

solid show...........not the most dynamic, but the lead characters grew on you. Problem was it ran up against must see tv on NBC..........CHEERS. That was a tough battle. Inevitably I would catch Simon/Simon repeats during the summer.

the Christmas Eve episode on an uninhabited island used for war game blasting was a bit weak.

honestly I think the makeup ws used to emphasize his brush with death.........I don't think they were going for medical accuracy.

good call on NCIS.........they have a lead character that has a military past that they can tap when they want for storylines, ala Magnum. not much has really changed. We still have the primary genres of DRAMA television that have always sold..... Medical Courtroom Police only the names/faces change.

so it sounds dead...........or at least until the point Selleck is incapable of pulling it off even in the eyes of the fans. His Jesse Stone movies only add ammo to the argument he can do it. They'll have to wait until the original actors are either dead or in a retirement home.

as posted in another thread........Gerard Butler.......plenty macho as King Leonidas in '300' and has a softer/comedic side.........as in P.S., I love you (chickflick). He can do an American accent. hate to quote myself, but I offer another piece of propaganda to support the idea of Gerard Butler a...

I don't doubt the job she'd do, but she is not that strong of a box office draw on her own. Her name/looks wasn't enough to keep her tv show afloat.........and that was the heyday of her looks....

John Hillerman is only 76...........unless he is ill.......I'm sure he could pull off Higgins again.

I have said it before and I will say it again. If Hollywood is worried about the "older" demographics of the original cast, the fan base and the ticket buyers, concentrate on casting and marketing the Lily character. Lily would be in her mid to late twenties so cast her with a hot draw actress (Jes...

Rick was like the tag along little brother........and someone that both TC and Thoams felt they had to look out for.........whereas TC and Thomas were comparable in size and that breeds a certain kinship.

unfortunately........the only way we will see Selleck and crew in a big screen version of Magnum would be cameo roles other than their original characters....ala the Brady Bunch movie amongst others. The sad part is the movie makers will go for the money grab by casting a bankable star like McConaug...

without the quality of seasons 1-4...............5-8 never would have happened. They set the tone and sucked us in. They got us to care about a Vietnam Vet beach bum/PI and his buddies..............and as the series grew we learned of their more complex histories that added tremendous depth to the s...
