Re: Tom Selleck's screen test for Indiana Jones

Tom Selleck got better at downplaying roles later on, Jesse Stone is like that.

Magnum could be a bit "shouty". They may be the role more than the acting though.

Re: The John Hillerman Thread

His accent is very good and usually his pronunciations are too to but occasionally he uses the American pronunciation.

Status, herbs, and rations are some I can think of. You would think that Higgins, of all people, would pronounce rations "properly".

Has anyone notice that the character often is sporting high pants? What is that about?

That's the classic Higgins look, with the Clarks' Wallabees.

Welcome!
Cheers!

I forgot to mention, I started watching Magnum again because the first two seasons are free on IMDB TV in the UK.

Re: Deja Vu (1) (6.1)

Did they ever explain why Geoffrey St Clair, who was British, was serving with Magnum in the U.S. Navy in Vietnam?

UK forces didn't serve in Vietnam so did his family move there or did he move to the USA and enlist like Rick Rescorla?

Re: Reason why TM goes by Thomas not Tom

Well he does always insist on being called a Private Investigator rather than a P.I.
