I will only watch if Tom Selleck plays a character who beats the **** out of the new Thomas Magnum.

For some reason, CBS isn’t coming in on my TV. any more. Started 3 weeks ago. Haven’t cared enough to check it out.

No cable, I use a rooftop antenna.

Might be the TV too.

No. Magnum P.C.

Much worse than Magnum P.U.

We should probably take up a collection for pboyington to get more tums and malox if he continues to review more episodes of Maggot PU. I’m eternally grateful that I watched the original version. Great review too, that’s a tough FReeper.

I looked at the billboard for this show and said to myself- - “ so - Hollywood made Magnum gay”

It was a hokey from the first episode. A PI in Hawaii riding around in Ferrari’s, helicopters and living on the beach with clients who all appeared to be fashion models?

It had the credibility of Mr. Ed.

The "Lads" had the best lines and portrayed the widest range of emotions.

The pilot began with Magnum conducting a HALO (High Altitude Low Opening) parachute jump from the International Space Station into North Korea,

To give them a break, they were reading this from Robin Masters' book and laughing about it.

My question, why do you need the stealth of doing a HALO jump (from spaaaaaaaace!) when you have a helicopter just a couple miles away to provide support and escape?

Hollywood has not only run out of ideas, but they can’t do a remake of an original movie/series without f*king it up with SJW/PC bullsh*t.

They actually tore down the Robin Masters house in Waimanalo a few months ago. The rumor is that a front bought the property for Obama. Not clear what is going to happen to the property now.

I don’t know what channels it’s on, but it’s being advertised on Prime.

I thought to myself...no thank you.

“the new Thomas Magnum.”

A short metrosexual (gay) Mexican Magnum.

It was absolutely dreadful.

I was not impressed with the acting, story line nor the character changes. Even the “action” scenes were pretty crappy.

The only scene in the whole show with which I was impressed was the dive sequence - that had to cost a little penny or two.

I feel very confident that was my first and last viewing. Even my wife was NOT impressed.

I just watched the new show, “Manifest” on Hulu. Give it a shot instead of the remake.

"I would hate to see a remake of My Three Sons’, bet they would screw that up in 1 minute..."

The two older ones would be fags. The youngest one would be a girl getting an "operation" to become a boy.
