What I remember from the original broadcast airing that is missing from the syndicated reruns as well as the DVD are the "flashes" of the shooting that the "ghost" magnum kept experiencing. I particularly remember when Magnum is at the King Kamehaha Club bar on the beach and Mac is talking to him, t...

Excellent suggestions, especially the Kualoa ranch. My girlfriend is a huge Lost fan (as am I), so I would love to be able to get some Lost locations in as well. Anyone know where the fuselage / crash site beach is? Or any other notable location (I would imagine a lot of Sydney and other flashback l...

The Magnum - Hawaii Bucket List

Ok, maybe not a bucket list, but at least the "gotta do" list when visiting Hawaii. I'm going to start saving for a trip to the islands, and I want to plan out the places to go and things to do that would be essential to a trip there. I've seen the great pics some of you have shared here taking a sw...

There's someone that lives about a mile down the road from me that has a red ferari. It's usually under a car cover, but I've seen him out on the road a few times over the past 4 years. I haven't gotten a close enough look to see if it's a 308, but it sure looks just like it. I get a warm fuzzy feel...

Welcome! I'm pretty new here, too, and was happy to find such a cool site. My magnum watching experience is similar to yours. I did watch the first run shows, but really started watching a lot during the syndication years, when I could catch it on 3, sometimes 4 times a day (WGN, WWOR, local Charlot...

Too bad they didn't include "Nice Guys Finish Dead" from The Rockford Files. Our TS AND Larry Manetti are in that one. Not to mention James Whitmore Jr. ('Nuzo'/'Billy Joe Bob'), James Luisi (in ep. "Forty"). But that was a season 6 Rockford ep., and they're only up to releasing season 5 (in Januar...

FYI for anyone not familiar with the tvshowsondvd website, it's a great resource for upcoming releases, but also archives all of their announcements and news.

You Lance White / Rockford fans (and I'm one of them, I've got all the DVDs released so far) will be excited to know that the Season 8 DVD release of MPI will include as a bonus episode the Rockford ep "White on White and Nearly Perfect". So we get Magnum and Lance White on the same DVD! I posted in...

I just got the notice from tvshowsondvd.com that Season 8 has been officially announced by Universal for a MARCH 4th, 2008 release date. This time there's some actual bonus material: 3 commentary tracks! I know what you're thinking, and you're right; It's about damn time! "Pleasure Principle" Commen...

Re: Top Ten Signs You're Obsessed With Magnum PI

TOP TEN SIGNS YOU’RE OBSESSED WITH MAGNUM, PI 3. You have the Freebairn-Smith MPI theme song as a ringtone on your cell phone. I think if you even *know* the name Freebairn-Smith or how it relates to MPI, that's a sign you're obsessed w/ MPI. I have the Mike Post version as my ringtone, does that s...

First, let me say I love this site. Hopefully this one will stay around and not disappear like some of the other MPI fan sites did. I remember a scene (I don't recall which episode) where Magnum is knocked out and falls to the floor. The camera shot they cut to clearly shows TM's face as he lay unco...

I've wanted to visit Hawaii since I first started watching MPI at 9 years old. Seeing these pics and knowing that I can enjoy the tidal pool as if I were a guest of Robin Masters makes me want to start saving now and putting a date on the calendar! The advent of google earth, being able to zoom arou...

I almost certainly have it. I started videotaping all the episodes around 1986 (getting syndicated versions on WGN or WWOR or my local WBTV in Charlotte), but also started taping the broadcast episodes for the last couple of seasons. Those tapes have been in my basement for the past 4 years as I've ...
