The director, Lawrence Kasdan, wrote the script for Indiana Jones and I think the Sam Weber as JT Lancer was a nod and a wink to Selleck for having to turn down the Indiana Jones part..............

In the movie, they all watch the J T Lancer TV show opening, with theme song, girls, guns, and cars! I tried to find it to post. Maybe someone with better skills can find it, and post it!

Higgins: Magnum, you are clad only in your undershorts.
Magnum: Of course I am.
Higgins: Even for you I find that just a trifle casual.

Great movie and one of the best soundtracks of all time (funny how the opening sequence of the JT Lancer series has a shameless ripoff of the early cross of lorraine Magnum opening)
