Re: Who's the hottest babe on Magnum P.I.?

Voted for Bibi Kiamani in "Black on White", but could as well have voted for Mandy in "No Need to Know". It is difficult, too many gorgeous women in this show... Even in the pilot, you see two babes after less than five minutes or so :)

Re: Black on White (3.6)

Just watched this episode again, it is a very good one IMO, in short: They have managed to blend some of Higgins' history with a thrilling story and a twist. Also, locking TM and JQH in a room with TM behaving like a teenager puts the spotlight on their relationship. Rick and TC are doing a good job...

Re: Past Tense (3.5)

I really liked this episode despite it's shortcomings (landing in a prison with a helicopter to rescure an inmate is not realistic IMO, yes, however, lots of similarly unrealistic scenes can be found in the series and we love it anyway). Past Tense is one of my favorites because while watching, I im...

Re: Robin's Nest visit April/May 2015

Interesting to have a clear view of the gate house. Also, when I was there, I took a picture of the main house similar to the one posted (from the beach). Ah memories.. Thanks for sharing! By the way, during my visit of Pahonu, there was a dog in the neighouring estate, a German Shepherd, which kept...

Re: Favorite Quotes

Magnum (to guest): "I prefer to be called private investigator."
Higgins: "He prefers to be called. Period."

I forgot which episode that was.

Re: How did you get into Magnum?

As I have posted elsewhere, I can't quite explain why, but watching MPI transports me someplace. It isn't Hawaii or Pahonu per se, but it just feels right. I can confirm that! It is really like taking part in what is happening. There is a number of series I have grown fond with, but for me, Magnum,...

Re: How did you get into Magnum?

When Magnum was airing, I guess I was too young for it, or perhaps the would not air it early enough in the day (I was a schoolboy back then). Anyway, I have no recollection of watching it during the 80s, but I did watch Simon&Simon, that much I remember :) I started watching it later (probably not ...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

There will always be the Magnum spirit, regardless of who lives there. I realized this the other day when I was watching a Youtube video of somebody filming at the beach (briefly showing the boat house, then the turtle/tidal pool). I could hear the sound of the ocean and, rather subdued like in the ...

Re: If the Magnum is Reborn, Then What Sports Car Gets the P

Not a current model and very different from the 308 GTS, but a red F50 would be perfect in my opinion if we are confined to Ferrari. It looks stunning, especially without the roof. I think it's their masterpiece, even better-looking than the F40 (in turn, the F40 sound is just breathtaking). There a...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

It kinda' makes me sad :( Thanks for posting! It's that music that's making you sad. Yes, but even without music, it is a bittersweet sensation. Too much daydreaming, I guess :) I could care less who bought it. Yep, it's just a "some rich guy buys expensive property" situation, which happens often ...

Re: The Marks Estate

I was just looking to see if there was any new filing for the Marks Estate to see who purchased it, but I discovered it's back on the market! JP Morgan Chase has dropped the price from $5,643,000 to $5,361,000. Oh good, now I can afford it. :shock: http://www.hawaiilife.com/articles/2015/03/histori...

Re: The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

If it is really Obama, will the estate be "Barack's Nest"? Will he even have time to visit or will the place rather be run by a mayordomo looking after things? Who will be in charge of security and will they also live in the main house or in a separate house somewhere on the estate? ;)

Re: The Absolute Worst Episodes

Interesting thread, will start thinking about the series this way. Of course, the attempted Airwolf spinoff episode will be a part of my negative list, I couldn't even watch it to the end. I was especially angry at this one because it started out promising. I felt scammed out of watching my Magnum e...
