Magnum Mania!

The chief of Hawkins is watching magnum first episode

There were several callouts to Magnum. I don’t want to give anything away, but I counted at least five.

Yep. And he would be a better magnum than the one there is now!

Once again, you Maniacs beat me too it!

I just started watching it today and noticed that right away. Put a Big Smile on my face . . . even if they got the year wrong . . . I guess it was a rerun?

David Harbour is in full Magnum, P.I. aloha shirt tucked into jeans glory.

I’m just gonna tell you this bit of dialogue from a later episode. No context so it doesn’t spoil anything.

HOPPER: Stop this ride! Now!
CARNIVAL WORKER: Not on your life, Magnum!

Daughter sent me this.

To be fair to Jay Hernandez that entire show is hot garbage. The problem is the writing and the tone, not his acting, he was the second best part of Suicide Squad right behind Margot Robbie, and he was really great as Dimitri Havelock in The Expanse. To the point I’m actually more aggravated with the new MPI because it will probably keep him from reprising the roll in the fourth season, which is a real shame, that character had a really fantastic story in the book the forth season is going to be based on.
