Magnum PI, Redux

[OZZIE4DUKE]

Just as long as we don't get a My Mother the Car reboot.

Freshman year - a guy in my dorm insisted there was such a show and couldn't believe I hadn't heard of it. I should try to find an episode somewhere to watch. Was this how they got the idea for Kit in Knight Rider?

I watched both when they were new! And the Monkees, too!

I confess that I am old enough to have watched it live but I lived out of the country and missed it totally.

This travesty must be addressed. The commercials for the new reboot are extremely offensive to this dyed in the wool Selleck fan. A very significant part of my youth was dedicated to gazing dreamily at the teevee at Magnum's 6'4" fabulosity wearing his Detroit Tiger cap.

I am deeply offended by this ridiculous development.

And I do not care that Selleck gave his supposed "blessing." I'm calling shenanigans on that.

Agree completely, Weezie. Have met Tom Selleck -- at the WaDuke, no less. I have no confidence that this new fella can measure up. I don't compare this reboot to the
"Five O." one. No one on the original version of that show had much sex appeal. However, that is a strength of the new version.
