Re: How do Magnum Mania ranks work?

I wonder how many fleet admirals there are in the actual Navy. According to Wikipedia there are no current fleet admirals in the Navy. The last was Chester Nimitz. Good heavens. If they’ve run short, they can always come here. LOL!!! :lol: I'm sure I can drive a boat, or do they prefer "ships?" ;)

Re: Season 1 Episode 16: Murder is Never Quiet (1.16)

I'd say your buddy has it right. It could be seen as a bitter attitude but it is a real one. And I agree with him. I'm not a veteran. My father served in Vietnam, and experienced quite a lot of the problems veterans faced when they came home. He rarely talks about it. Still it really bugs me that pe...

However, cotton seems to shrink over the time when it has been washed. Rayon not so much

Good point. :) I usually hang dry my Aloha shirts for that reason. :) I'll give the rayon a go and see how it fits. :)

Re: Magnum's Hawaiian Shirts

I have the Jungle Birds shirt in both, cotton and rayon. In my opinion, the rayon shirts wear much better, so you should get them as long as they are available Is the fit the same for both? I have to drop some pounds. School and work have not been kind :) Plan to get the same size that I have in co...

Re: Season 1 Episode 16: Murder is Never Quiet (1.16)

This episode left me flat. The plot was predictable. Rick and TC don't have paying jobs that occupy any of their time, and I really hate how modern shows trundle out a veteran, ogle over them, and then make some trite statements. Comparing this last point to the original show. I felt the original m...

Re: Magnum's Hawaiian Shirts

The fabric for the shirt has also gone through some changes over the years. Prior to 1983, the shirt was made of 100% rayon. From 1983 to 1991, the shirt was made in both 100% rayon and 100% cotton. Then in 1992, Pacific Clothing decided to make it only in 100% cotton. This cotton-only fabric remai...

Re: When the Reboot Eventually Ends...

Something like this would be awesome :) Love to see it happen. I still wonder if they plan to introduce the is Magnum really RM into the story line. We haven't seen Robin yet, and I could see the new Higgins wondering how Magnum got the connection he did. I doubt this will happen though since they ...

Re: Rick's devotion to 70s style?

I do recall something in LM's book about how he was able to keep the tailored clothing from the series, and was quite pleased because of how well they were made. Being a kid raised in the 80's I think I have a tendency towards pants that taper to the ankle. Certainly over today's "skinny" jeans and ...

I'm looking forward to seeing Mr. Mosley in the role. And as a barber who gives the new incarnation of TC advise, well I think its a good fit.

Re: Season 1 Episode 15: Day the Past Came Back (1.15)

So the ex-fiance is evil? My guess is there will be all kinds of twists and turns involving this woman as she was or is part of the intelligence community. I'm also betting that here will be a huge fight between this woman and Juliette Higgins as they can't really have huge blow out fights between ...

Re: Season 1 Episode 15: Day the Past Came Back (1.15)

I hate how they make new character with original show's character's attributes and then brings the character from the original without his attributes... This is part of the balancing act the reboot is trying to maintain... hardcore fans get upset when it's different, but we also complain when the r...

Re: It seems Peter Lenkov can't take the heat

I trust that Lenkov was a fan of the original series and also wants to put his own spin on it. The guy has 3 series that I know of that he is on (MPI, Mac, and H50) so I imagine much gets farmed out to writers etc, many who probably only saw a few shows. I think they should spend some time re watchi...

Re: Where to find new red shirt?

The last two shirts are not the traditional cut of Aloha shirts. Look more like what I've heard referred to as a "camp shirt." Whatever that is :)
