Magnum Mania!

I've been watching episode after episode of Magnum over the past few years, renting them on Netflix, only Season 1 is no longer available on Netflix.

The other week, I finally noticed something that happens on virtually every episode, the line spoken by Magnum....... "I know what you're thinking" is used repeatedly. In fact, it happens I think in virtually every episode.

Does anyone know if this is intentional or coincidental?

Without any inside knowledge of the show I would say it was totally intentional. There are things we always see/hear like that and "Hi, guys" and of course old Dusselfdorf in a long neck bottle...

I love when he says, "I know what you're thinking," because most of the time I'm not thinking it!

Yep, a well established trademark phrase from the show.

Ya, it's definitely intentional. It's his catch phrase. Like...

"Party on"
"Not that there’s anything wrong with that."
"Whoa Nellie!"
"Kiss my grits!"
"Here I come to save the day."
"Eh, what’s up, doc?"

You get the idea.

What'choo talkin' 'bout, Willis???

I thought you guys were talking about me for a second!

That's pretty funny. Here I am asking a question about a catch phrase that I hear in almost every episode meanwhile a member uses the line for their profile name.
