I posted this on Facebook but thought it might make an interesting discussion here too. What actor or actress would you most like to have had as a guest star on Magnum, PI?
I am going with Betty White. If I had a time machine, I'd go back and tell them to move heaven and earth to make this happen. Invent a character and write a script specifically with her in mind. JUST DO IT!

He's my favorite actor of all time, and the producers wanted him, including Selleck, I believe. He wouldn't work for Universal though, during a 9-year lawsuit concerning The Rockford Files and injuries he incurred on, and profits from the show.

Deja vu...I'm pretty sure I've posted these answers before.

Jim Rockford is a gimme, sign me up for multiple crossovers/guest appearances! But we know they tried and it didn't work out.
To get really creative, I'd like to see Robert Conrad .... as Pappy Boyington, with Wk Stratton, Jeff MacKay, Red West and . . . Larry Manetti . . . Reprising their roles in a Flashback style episode.
