Ok, one fakes his death and does so by crashing his plane while he has spectators. Where was the body? Where did the body of the pilot go? No mention about this in the script. I know these episodes are intended to be creative but they should include some basic, fundamentals, there would be no readin...

Why would the KGB get an American pose as Masters' former schoolmaster? And why didn't Magnum or Higgins suspect? It struck me as from the beginning... Actually I think the script writers did this to completely throw the viewers off course. When it is mentioned that it was Robin Master's former sch...

Another hilarious episode. Is this the season where the show hit its stride in hilarity? The episodes of season three seems to have more humor in them than seasons 1 & 2 did. Spot on Right!!! You know what is funny and very strange, I did not like this episode the first time I viewed it but on seco...

How times and perceptions change. I rated this episode as just 2 stars after first viewing it. I now rate it as a solid 4 stars. Some of these episodes are very slow to get going and this episode is one of them. It focuses almost entirely on the tennis theme and does not have a lot of action with gu...

Another great episode with a hot headed Texan. Every few months I rent Magnum P.I. episodes from Netflix even though I had seen them at least once before I get a kick out of watching them again. This was a blast. Season 2 has a lot of great episodes. I found the simpler episodes with few characters ...

It's funny how people love some episodes while some find them unappealing. This episode was quite different with a rebel Darren McGavin. The ending was unique and caught me by surprise. It was basically a man committing suicide and Magnum not stopping him. The hang gliding was terrific and McGavin h...

"I thought Hillerman was an English actor, boy was I surprised I found out he was from Texas! " The mark of a good actor. Yes, same here, I found out about a year ago that Higgie was from Texas. I think for an actor to really deliver a convincing performance they have to actually take on the person...

This is one of my favorite episodes, much of it is hilarious and Higgins has an arrogance and swagger to him that really cracks me up. I am surprised it only ranked as #16 in the top 40 episodes. The plot is very simple and it gets off to a great start with a snobby woman complaining to Higgins that...

For me the ultimate evidence that Higgins is NOT Robin Masters: I wish they never tried to keep the public guessing in the later series about whether Higgins is Robin Masters. It is completely idiotic that someone hires a person to live on their multi million dollar private estate in Magnum, but th...

This is one of my favorite episodes in this entire series. I watched it for about the third time and it stood out from the other episodes. Some of the things I really liked: 1. Picture quality is sharper than almost any other episode. 2. It captures Hawaii, from the roads, the water and the beach. 3...

Not sure I should bring this up but since we have so many critique experts that point out the most intricate details I thought some may appreciate my latest encounter. So........... I did this for you. During the opening 3 minutes of this EPISODE, LEST WE FORGET , there is a Beach Scene at Night , o...

That's him, thanks. He reminds me of Pee Wee Herman but with a lower IQ.

I am surprised no post here about the Goofball kid that was hilarious. I think he was a relative of the guy trying to hustle Robin's Estate in the Softball game and ended up ratting his Boss out at the very end. Who is he and anyone else besides me find him the highlight of this episode? As other me...

I really tried to give blueBloods a chance. But every time I happen upon it while channel surfing, I get a silent scene with Selleck, chin on chest, brooding. Or a somber quiet scene of him gazing out a window onto a hella big ugly city, and he is again, brooding with a big concerned frown. Long dr...

between all the Jesse Stone movies and all episodes of Blue Bloods.....you can probably count on 1 hand the number of times you see either character smile. I have tuned into the Blue Bloods series on CBS only a few times, for a few minutes each time and always I see Tom Selleck looks angry, depress...
