By the way, has anyone recognized you on the street? :magnum:

Thanks for a great March full of Magnum Madness, Conch! Job well done! I’m so sad it’s over :(

I agree with RG, great job Peter and I hope they bring you back next year. In the interim maybe you can suggest to them a 4th of July mini-marathon with you providing trivia about the show, locations, flubs, etc. By the way, the COZI fans picked a good winner; Home From The Sea, not a bad choice at all...........

Thanks guys! It was a lot of fun to do (once I realized I wasn't going to puke on Len's shoes) and I do hope they do something like this again. I already mentioned we should to do something for PI Day next year 3/14.

I was very happy (and a bit relieved) when I saw the Final Four and then what the winner was. So much is made of the beefcake factor - the short shorts, the hairy chest - that seeing such a character driven episode like Home From the Sea win made me feel better about how the the rest of the MPI fans out there who voted see the series.

As for being recognized, I have been, once, and it before even this Magnum Madness thing. It was last Spring after I did the SuperFan spot and when I was at the supermarket. I was distracted and a little harried. I pulled over to go over my list when a man approached me, introduced himself and asked if I was on TV. I really didn't know how to react, but I said I did do something for CoziTV recently. He said he thought it was me, the guy they see one the train in the morning. He introduced me to his boyfriend (to quote Seinfeld "not that there's anything wrong with that"). We spoke for a few minutes, they said they loved the SuperFan spot, the tiki bar (they couldn't believe it was in Queens) and then we went on our way. I still see them from time to time on the train in the mornings. My first fans!

Ditto!

Keep on doing what you're doing! It would be awesome if they could host it from Flemingo Key one time

(Obviously not March Madness time)

Magnum Pi Day! LOL! Everyone has to watch episode 3.14 ("The Arrow That Is Not Aimed")! :)

Great job again with the Cozi spots Peter! You'll probably get recognized all the time in Manhatten. "Hey, arn't you the Magnum guy from Cozi TV? Yeah, yeah I seen you on the TV! Hey! I ain't never had a problem with my stache, either!... Tell Len I said hi!" :)

That's already what I call Thursdays what with multiple Magnums on Esquire channel, Encore classic and of course COZI. You can have 14 or more episodes on that day................(Also known as Jungle Bird shirt Thursday).............

Cozi received a cease and desist letter from the NCAA for the Magnum March Madness promotion. The links were all pulled down.

Sorry to hear that Conch! The NCAA will have the rights to March Madness so their lawyers are going to protect it....too much money involved not too.
Maybe Cozi could tweak the name to just Magnum Madness or Magnum March Mayhem...I know it's not the same, but it beats the alternative. Their legal team will probably still initiate a full court press on Cozi stating it's too similar.

At least we completed the whole promotion . . . except I downloaded nothing from the site to save for future use.

That'll learn me.
