looks like somebody made it into a dvd set. the mag was on the team in the 1980 one and was the captain for cbs in the 1981 episode - looks like they would be complete in this set. one of the youtube links i posted had a teaser in there where they started to do a bio of TS with some cool old footage...

man,,,,,i have such a hard time watching the rick-centric episodes. i like larry as rick when his character is just normal and casual. but when his character is pushed into being emotional - angry, sad.... i find larry's acting really hokey and teeth-grittingly painful to watch. the other 3 really o...

concerning the paternity 'issue' - they exact dated the little girls bday - Karen
states in the same sentence that she is "4 and a half and is a Pisces" - thus
giving TM the info to determine her birthday....or month.

obviously "4 and a half and is a Pisces" is the "post-TM" era in Karen's life.

I finally got back from my holiday to good ol' Magnum PI and this was the next episode on the DVD. Good episode, another fun "whodunnit" episode. I also think I noticed a flub. In the scene where Higgins comes with the diamonds he found in his "double-v c" Rick calls Cynthia for Cindy. It might jus...

might be a flub - i noticed this when i found the video section of this site and watched the original airing end credit sequence. Devon Gaurd, a small player who appeared i think in 3 other magnum episodes (the look, who is don luis..., and the sixth postion) ....never appears in resolutions II........

I enjoy the silly episodes that ensure the show does not take itself too seriously. Actually, I am kinda sure the producers intentionally had a certain amount of "silly" episodes to ensure the show was not ever perceived as taking itself too seriously and maintained its "escapist entertainment" motif.
