Re: Roger on reboot.

I just read that Roger will be appearing as "T.C.'s" barber on the reboot. I'm 49 years old, and Roger / T.C. has been a hero of mine since I was 10. I have never felt so let down by a hero in my life. What's next, Larry appearing as the guy who shines Rick's shoes? As my mom always said when I was...

Re: It seems Peter Lenkov can't take the heat

...I might also add, I recall reading that in the original version, the creators looked to add some female roles to the show because the female demographic watching it just to see Selleck without his shirt was dropping after the first couple of seasons. They specifically developed the Carol Baldwin...

Re: It seems Peter Lenkov can't take the heat

...Millennials don't want storylines. They want blood and guts and lots of crashes and sex. And has to be PC... The original Magnum had lots of gratuitous violence, car crashes, and sex. I don't believe that Millennials demand shows to be "PC." That's ALL that's ever offered to them. If you look at...

Re: My TiKi Bar

The above ground pool in the OP is classic. Being from California, I moved to Vermont for a while in my early 20s, and traveled quite a bit in eastern Canada. One of the things that struck me was the pervasiveness of those above ground pools. Especially as soon as you get out of the big cities into ...

Re: My TiKi Bar

If you're ever in LA, and are into Tiki, try to get to Clifton's in downtown. They have a "secret" tiki bar on the 4th floor. While I personally like the other floors of the place (1920's, High Sierras, Gothic, etc), it has a really cool semi-"secret" tiki bar. Come early or on a night when its not ...

Bear in mind, I never attacked him personally, I did respond to many of his tweets with gifs from this site however.

Guess he's a little sensitive.
Aren't you the ultimate Magnum fan? That's sacrilege. :lol:

Only half full is still better than half empty.

I assume it would be 7/6 of an episode if you watching one episode and the opening credits of a second.

Re: Who's the hottest babe on Magnum P.I.?

While I haven't watched any of the reboot episodes and have no desire to, perhaps some of the "peaches" from the new series should be added to the MM site? :twisted:

Re: Death and Taxes (7.6)

I hated Miami Vice , so I didn't like this episode either. Also, the killer had an incredibly annoying voice, annoying laugh, and annoying style of talking; not to mention he had an annoying face with an annoying gap between his teeth that the annoying camera man decided to constantly zoom in on. I...

Re: One More Summer (2.17)

When i watched this episode a year ago, i was surprised to see Dick Butkus on opening credits. Not that i'm a fan of American football, i don't even know the rules, i'm not from USA. I was surprised to see Lithuanian last name as i, myself, am Lithuanian. I instantly googled it and got confirmation...

Re: Jay Hernandez and Twitter

...Yes, I agree with everything you 100% here, which is part of the reason I am curious as to where some viewers are seeing a political angle. Maybe conflating Tom Selleck with Magnum? I can see how this might happen. Anyway, just to repeat, I'm truly not looking to argue this, just want to know mo...

Re: Moonlighting

I'm wondering how they could ruin a "reboot" of this show. I would love more episodes, but I don't see how it would work today. I would love to see them attempt it though. Removing the sexual innuendo and what today would be called "harassment" would be bizarre. I'd watch just to see how bad it woul...
