Gotta agree with Carmen on "two birds of a feather". It starts off great but after TM disappears that's it for me.

Well, watched this one again last night and it's a so so ep. Perhaps the only redeeming feature of this one is the lovely Katherine Cannon. Higgins was pretty funny too especially after TC hoists him out onto the balcony.

The DVD's are an absolute godsend. I remember in the days when we had the VHS tapes, we'd frantically search around for all the best bits. Now, of course it's easy to find the best bits, the great clashes with Higgins, arguments over the wine cellar, use of the tennis courts and the Ferrari and of c...

Some of us are beginning to show our age here as a result of this thread. You young whippersnappers have no idea how good you've got it what with DVD's, HD, NetFlix etc etc. Way back in the heyday of the show you had to wait until the show was aired to tape it and sit there and hit pause to edit out...

What was the first episode you videotaped and when?

After reading through various threads about flubs and videotaped episodes from the 80's I just got nostalgic. So, can you remember what episode or from which season you first videotaped MPI? For me, it was Italian Ice, taped around April or May (Spring anyhow) of 1982. It was taped using a JVC HR770...

I actually like The Love For Boat Sale, mainly because of the excellent Jeff Mckay. To me he was great as Mac or Jim Bonnick or whoever. A funny, warm and talented guy.

Wow what a selection? not one of those episodes would be rated less than 9.5 out of 10.

Two Birds Of A Feather - Just lame, pure and simple


These two would be a close 2nd

Echoes Of The Mind - Just utter pointless nonsense

LA - I really do like David Sanborn but must he play that irritating riff each time Dana Delaney appears on screen.

I've gotta say that this two parter is a real turkey. I've tried and tried to find something that might redeem it but I just can't. Firstly, why on earth would Magnum fall in love with a total psycho like Diane/Deidre when he knew for some time that they were one and the same. As much as I like Shar...

We do get E here in the UK but I don't recall ever seeing this. I guess we'll just have check the listings and wait.

What a shame.

Just watched this episode again as part of my random watchathon and it is a great episode. The comic banter between TC and Rick at the beach club was superb, easily one of the best laughing scenes in the entire series.

Great stuff

Interesting to see how Mac is far away in the lead. He was a really enjoyable character and I loved his sense of humour, especially when he became the con artist we know as Jim Bonnick. It's also interesting to note just how much Magnum always thought about Mac, he obviously cared very much for him ...
