Re: Suggestion for the Higgins role
I think a couple of ideas for a recast Higgins for a movie are terrific ones. I really like the idea of Michael Palin playing Higgins' role in a movie. That actor has a real sense of history. I loved the travel show he used to do. I think Michael Palin would really nail that sense of Higgins as a ki...

Re: World Cup
I wonder what kind of story Higgins would have concerning his time with the English football squad. Maybe some kind of tale set in the late 40s or early 50s? Maybe even besting the French team? Would Higgins be a player, a coach or a leader of his own team of hooligans?

Re: The Absolute Worst Episodes
Hey Sisophous. Thanks for the reply. I was thinking while I was watching Echoes of the Mind that Michael Douglas was lucky the studio owning the Magnum rights didn't sue him for copyright infringement. Basic Instincts sure seems to have borrowed heavily from this Echoes of the Mind. I'm not totally ...

Re: Who's the hottest babe on Magnum P.I.?
I still fall for the character of Rita Parker every time I watch "Innocence... A Broad" in season eight. I will also have to mention Diana the police officer. I would've liked to have seen that Diana featured in an episode.

Re: The Absolute Worst Episodes
I like all the episodes of MPI. All of them except for one. And I HATE this episode. I cannot stand the two part episode "Echoes of the Mind." Honestly, it makes me want to vomit, and my mind refuses to recognize it as part of the MPI library. Oh, I hate so much about it. I could never stand Sharon ...

Re: Funniest episode sub-plot
My favorite is the fight Thomas and Higgins have over the remote control airplane in the episode "Distant Relative" from season four. Get a kick out of Agatha flying the role of the Germans and the destruction of Higgins' plane twice in the episode. Before I rediscovered Magnum last year, that fight...

Re: Magnum The Prequel idea
Thumbs up from me on this creative idea! I have thought that a "prequel" featuring Jonathan Higgins would be cool. Higgins' historic era and background are ripe with possibilities, and I fear a lot of younger people (Oh, my God! I just typed that. Means I'm old now) are losing touch with that histor...

If the Magnum is Reborn, Then What Sports Car Gets the Part?
Lots and lots of great casting ideas for parts in case MPI would be reborn with new faces. But I was wondering what kind of sports car would take the place of the famous red Ferrari? I don't know much at all about sports cars. Does anyone have a cool car to drop into the role, and any pics to go wit...

Re: Chris Evans as Magnum
Should a new actor be recruited to step into the shoes of Thomas Magnum. I kinda like Matthew Fox, who played the role of the Doctor Shepherd on Lost. I think's he's got that tall, lean and dark look going on. And he isn't too young. To me, Thurber looks too polished for Magnum. And I never liked th...

Larry Manetti and Tales from the Darkside
I received the complete series Tales from the Darkside on DVD from my brother this Christmas. We've both been watching them and laughing to remember how much we loved that show when it aired while we were kids. I jumped up an down to see Mr. Manetti in two Darkside episodes - "Baker's Dozen" and "Pr...

Re: National Lampoon's Vacation
Hey Birdman.
I must admit I was being a little sarcastic (a bad habit of mine). BUT, that vista cruiser on Lampoons does So remind me of the King K Club's Waggoner.

Re: If Magnum P.I. was a current show...
I am going to chime in a bit on the other side of the coin here. I think that MPI could very well fly today. I think there are a lot of themes at the heart of MPI that would do very well in a transplant from the 80's to the 2010's. First, I think you have the theme of healing following the trauma of...
