Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)
Although, I loved the ending, but how did Higgins know the result of the game? He hasn't ever liked the American sports (maybe he is rather like the rugby).

Saw it on the news? Either that or one of the others mentioned it when he was present.Lord Ickenham wrote:Although, I loved the ending, but how did Higgins know the result of the game? He hasn't ever liked the American sports (maybe he is rather like the rugby).

Everybody has, once their lives, gone ahead and watched something they had no interest in just because of someone else's interest in it. For example; soccer, or even the Mag reboot.K Hale wrote:Saw it on the news?

I think that's the fastest Higgie Baby ever moved in these eight years. Karma would come back around to him, though; in "Photo Play" he did not get to see the end of the snooker tournament because he himself accidentally recorded a baseball game instead.Chris109 wrote:Everybody has, once their lives, gone ahead and watched something they had no interest in just because of someone else's interest in it.

I have watched things I had no interest in, but I never can stay awake while watching it. I've slept through innumerable sporting events, horror flicks, rom coms, "Gone With the Wind," etc.

Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)
I confess, I have never interested seeing sports. I liked to play soccer at my childhood, I played tennis and table-tennis, but I don't watch tv sports too often.

Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)
Is there a fall/winter commencement at the Naval Academy? And if there is, does a December 67 graduate count as "Class of 67"? In Lest We Forget, Judge Caine says that he had Magnum checked out, despite Robin's recommendation, and mentions "Annapolis, class of '67. Three tours in Vietnam." I can only assume, when people say "Class of XX" they are usually referring to the spring graduations?KingKC wrote:Good one!!!!!K Hale wrote:Ah, OK. Well, maybe they did take 5 years.

I don’t think this is a flub. There are lots of buildings that are different heights in different sections of the building, especially those that are wider at the bottom floors with a central tower that goes higher. Carol and Magnum go through an emergency exit that opens onto the 3rd floor parking level, which is wider than the higher (including 4th) floors of the building. The stairs are centrally located to run through all floors.Flubs wrote:When Magnum and Carol are being chased by the two bad guys in the office building, they enter a stairwell and descend one flight of stairs. They then exit the stairwell and find themselves on the roof of the building! Is there an invisible floor above the roof?

Re:
I just looked that up out of boredom after watching this episode. Magnum's stats (3 TD) would fit into the actual score if all of Navy's scores were TDs and they had only one extra point. Not that anyone should care; there is no reason why Magnum's stats should have been possible in the real game. That would be like expecting Magnum's name to be the same as the real QB in 1967.Tuan Vu wrote:Just one bit of trivia: The Midshipmen won that 1967 game 19-14 in Philadelphai, PA. Source:

Way to go, Magnum!
Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)
The song heard at the beginning in the background when Magnum and TC are playing catch is Navy Blue and Gold, the Navy Alma Mater. You also hear another brief version of it when Magnum is chasing down the guy at the end on the beach. It was my high school's fight song. SR

Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)
This is one of my least favorite episodes, since Carol’s manipulation is way above and beyond any that TM does.
His little manipulations aren’t so contrived. I know after all these years it shouldn’t make me mad, but really… calling Higgins, Rick and TC and lying?
I agree with another poster that this was lazy writing. And I could never forget what Carol did, and it soured me towards her character for the rest of the series. I would have preferred to see TM make the game and have a good mystery to solve during the visit.

Re: No More Mr. Nice Guy (4.13)
I saw this last night and noticed on this thread that I gave it my worst score ever (6 - pretty bad) when I re-watched this 10 years ago but I didn't comment, so I'll remedy that now:
I hate everything about the Carol Baldwin character ! From her relentless lies/manipulation to her fake "drunk acting", her ridiculous greying poodle hair and her justification of her behaviour when her lies were discovered with TM does the same.
This reminds me why I detest any episode with her in it so much.
Now I feel better for having got that off my chest.
