Cross over picture

#1 Post by Laohu »

I think this picture is from this up coming seasons episode that has a major cross over with Hawaii 50 . Far as the plot goes from what I can figure out it involves a bank hold up .

Hawaii Five-0/Magnum P.I. Crossover Status: 'We've Narrowed Down a Story'
Matt Webb Mitovich

The Lenkoverse is back on track for another two-show team-up.

Though a full-on crossover between CBS’ Hawaii Five-0 and Magnum P.I. did not come to fruition during the latter’s freshman run, Peter M. Lenkov — the showrunner for both of the Aloha State-based procedurals — told TVLine as part of our Fall Preview Q&A that he is resolved to making it happen this TV season, and “sooner rather than later.”
When last we spoke, Lenkov said that the writers rooms had just begun bandying about ideas. Now, weeks later, the prolific producer has passed along this update: “We have narrowed down a story.”
Lenkov’s Five-0 reboot previously has crossed over with CBS’ NCIS: Los Angeles (not a show he runs) and, more recently, his own MacGyver reboot (in a singular March 2017 episode that saw Chin and Kono giving Mac & Co. an assist). Now, if Lenkov has his druthers, a two-part crossover between Five-0 (entering Season 10) and Magnum — airing back-to-back on Fridays this fall, with MacGyver on hold for midseason—will take place.
But until then, watch for some micro-crossovers. For example, Five-0‘s Kamekona (played by Taylor Willy), Duke (Dennis Chun) and Noelani (Kimee Balmilero) are all set to pay additional visits to Magnum, as they did last season. New to the crossover mix, meanwhile, are Five-0‘s Shawn Mokuahi Garnett (whose Flippa will make his Magnum debut) and guest star William Forsythe, who will reprise his Five-0 role of P.I. Harry Brown in an early November episode of the sophomore drama.

Hi Lahou,
Maybe Lenkov has gotten off his lazy butt and is actually trying to be creative again. This might actually be interesting. Hopefully they brought in some new writers
who want to make a splash and not just collect a check. MASH for one was re-energized when they brought in new people behind and in front of the camera,
as the repetitive story lines involving Frank Burns weren't making it anymore while the new Major Winchester character(and previously BJ) was a breathe of fresh air.

I really not sure what you are talking about .” Lenkov getting off his lazy butt ?” The man is running 3 shows this does not strike me as lazy at all . As For new writers that may or may not be a good thing many of the shows were very enjoyable in season 1 they just need to focus on what worked last year and they will be fine . Magnum Pi is a different kind of show from MASH . To bring in many more Characters then what they have you have to cut screen time of the Characters that we love . I don’t want to see any less of the 4 major characters but as I understand it they will add another reoccurring character this year .

I have reference to the mess that is the reboot of Hawaii 5-0 that could only be produced by a very lazy person. McGarret was miscast from the get go.
Dressing like a 16 year old boy who had stolen Justin Bieber's wardrobe from 10 years ago, with a perpetual 3 day beard is a ridiculous take on the role.
No professional peers that he interacted with would possibly take him seriously.
Almost all the regulars - except Perdita Weeks - on the Magnum reboot are terrible actors. The cop Lt. is so wooden I'm afraid the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz might
show up at any minute and chop him down. The clown cast as Luther Gillis has already sewn up the award for worst actor in the history of television.
Lenkov is lazy because because he settled for hiring these clowns instead of working to find actors worthy of carrying on the Magnum PI legacy.
The almost weekly mass firefights are beyond stupid. Lenkov has no understanding of what real violence is and the DAMAGE it causes, it's a 14 year old boy's fantasy
version. I noted it before but it's always worth repeating combat veteran Lee Marvin's reaction to his portrayal of violence:
"It is what it is. Anything less is farce."
Lenkov is just another Hollywood slob looking to make a buck off the name of a great TV series, he doesn't give a damn about living up to the original as that
would entail a lot of effort.
His is the slob's take on a work of art. Ask him do do a update on the Mona Lisa and he'd unveil a topless Rosie O'Donnell.
I'll watch the new series because if you can forget the original ever existed, it's a passable time waster as one does a crossword puzzle. Throw in the
always beguiling Perdita, Hawaii, and curiosity as to what next Lenkov will do with the Magnum legacy such as a male version of Agatha Chumly, and
I am there. It's the slowing down to look at a car wreck syndrome.
Laohu, you are certainly entitled to your opinion and to enjoy the remake. But for me it's just not good enough.

Hi Dobie
If it is not good enough in your opinion why do you waste your time with it ? You spend time in the reboot part of the form when you could be discussing how much you love the 80’s version in the rest of the forum. You also spend time watching at least two of Lenkov’s shows . Seems kind of strange to waste so much effort in something you claim not to enjoy .
Well I guess it is your time to waste enjoy it 8

Just wanted to add, that my impression is, that Lenkow is far from being lazy. He‘s put a lot of heartblood and effort in H5O and the MPI reboot and it shows.

As for the clothing style, I guess that the same can be said about ‚classic Thomas Magnum‘ if we are really seriously analyzing it.

But I won‘t do it because the magic of a tv show is how these little things are put together and often it only shows after a very long time and repeated viewings.
I agree about Luther Gillis rebooted as for the rest: Man, chill, it‘s a tv show!

If you are really dissecting and hard analyzing classing MPI the same way, you‘ll be finding similar complaints.

Well said, Dobie!! :magnum: Great quote from Lee Marvin too!! Not that it means anything to the fans of MiniMag who probably don't even know who Lee Marvin is. I'm sure they never saw nor have any interest in classic films like THE DIRTY DOZEN, POINT BLANK, THE PROFESSIONALS, EMPEROR OF THE NORTH POLE. Too slow and too old for them probably. Old movies... ewwwww!!! They need pretty boys with CGI action.

You are so far off the mark it really makes me laugh . Was watching Route 66 the other night and was not only surprised to see Lee Marvin in it but Lee only had gray hair on his temples .
And remember Donald Duck is down at the cross roads with a Machine gun .
