Not a chance. All eight seasons have been released onto DVD and Universal doesn't seem to be interested in special features on DVD's other than ones that plug their own TV series and films.

That clip compilation was taken from an outtake program because you can clearly hear laughter in the clip from a studio audience. As for the episodes that they were taken from I'm sure that somebody here would know.

I found it curious that the natives who chase Magnum and co. in this episode always seem to have sparkling clean yellow outfits. They live in the wild and, although they obviously wash their clothes it seems that they have access to some kind of detergent in order to get their clothes so clean.

It would be nice if the Beach Bar section could be split into several categories. At the moment it just includes everything and as such the topics are varied. I would like it if it was split into categories such as Music & TV, General Discussions and a Have Your Say board (one where we can discuss o...

Just a note saying on how good this website is. Over the past few days I've been reading some of the episode guides and all of the other little bits of info here and I think it's a very informative website on Magnum. It's well written and I can't think of any other Magnum website that goes into as m...

I've just finished watching a documentary on Tom Selleck on the Bio channel (a UK channel that specializes in TV biographies). It was quite interesting to find out what Selleck had done since Magnum. His career seemed to have covered almost every kind of role in the industry from cowboy's (in variou...

Personally, I wouldn't want to be a PI. Sometimes it can get a bit too risky especially when you've got somebody out for revenge on your tail. Although Magnum was only a TV series it did deal with some of the more dangerous aspects of being a PI.

Hillerman's portrayal of Higgins Irish half-brother is probably one of the best roles he has played in Magnum other than his main role as Higgins. The character may be a stereo-typical Irishman but it is the best of his 'other' roles in the series.

A nice episode and one I watched first time around as a bonus episode on the season 4 boxset. It's nice to see that Magnum is just a normal human being and not an invincible television PI when he is first seen wasting away his life after witnessing the death of somebody he loved. Him seeing Mac agai...

I enjoy all of the episodes where John Hillerman plays multiple roles. It shows him to be a great actor with the ability to even put on suitable accents for the characters he portrays.

It would be interesting to have a British guy to play a British character but I'm not sure who would be ideal. Either way he wouldn't be able to emulate Hillerman's portrayal of the character.

I only have a goatee beard but my mustache doesn't look anything like that of Magnum's. A person at work however has a mustache that looks so much like TM's that people have nicknamed him Magnum before in the past!

If the much hinted at movie ever appears I don't think I'll bother with it. From what I've read on both the net and in newspapers it will star a whole new cast - the advantages of which will mean that it can logically take place during the original 80's timeframe. Unfortunately, it just won't be the...

I don't mind the original theme tune. It doesn't quite fit the style of the show in my opinion but it is a good one nonetheless.
