Magnum P.I.

[Dark Raven]

this would the Navy seal Senor Chief petty officer turned NCIS agent LL cooL J play's in NCIS LA. of the under cover speacial project's division of NCis. where they run into alot of the spy world if they investgate the navy side to but this iswhat set them apart ofthe othe NCIS's is that more deep root in the world of Expeonage. or their supposed to be . That's sam on the left

there was Cross over with this series & Hawwis 5 0 but mcGarret 's actorwas haveing drug issue's and didn't him and Danno and the other on 5 O did the cross over instead. and the same thing happend again with mcguyver with jack dalton.

I don't watch NCIS: LA and stopped watching MacGuyver early on in the first season as I got bored.

I don't watch NCIS: LA and stopped watching MacGuyver early on in the first season as I got bored.

hmm, well I'm sure the only person which I did quote about a cross over which Hawii 5 O did with those two shows prior was the poster "SPO2 Dalisay." I know I quoted you too after wards

But I stayed to the suject of Higgans with yours . So I'm sorry but I don't get what that part had to do with you, til you asked the question of who Sam Hanna was. I'm not trying be be rude, though this may come of that way. which this isnot ment to be.

I was just talking on what SPO2 was talking as those shows were in the same universe. so that was between me and that poster on if mcgarret should finally show up and meet his buddys from his time in the Navy seals .

again yeah I did address you bit it was on the higgan love interest thing. in a seprate post.

But after two certain members of Hawii 5 O left, I kinda stopped watching too completly and i wasn't watching it as mush I did in season 1-2 . So i get what you mean with MacGuyver to a degree.

If your not feeling a show. there's no need to stay to it. or if your feeling your not likeing it ether.

Of course Prime Magnum P.I. had all manner of crossovers. The Simon & Simon ones I saw as I watched both series and have probably seen it in syndication over the years more often than Magnum. Never caught Murder She Wrote and skipped the crossovers when they showed up in syndication. I am vaguely aware of what is going on with faux MacGyver and the Los Angeles and Washington NCIS's

oh I was or should say old enogh to see the orginal series.

so I do know what your talking about . lol I even know of murder she wrote. lol this might be dating my self as I'm turning 40 this october the 16th. in my final year of the hype. Any way yeah CBS has made universe a with some of their shows where hawii 5 O 's involved .scorpion before it was cancelled was part of that.

NCisLA link is that both Sam Hanna & Mcgarrett know each from buds camp and were the seals. So it 'll likly they will do the same with magnum and his buddy that died saying they were all bud's camp and the same seal cell early on before they moved on and likely met Jack dalton from the current MacGyver.

I was just throwing out idea's since you mention that part here Mcgarrett's. and most of them are currently in the intelligence community/ law enforment . but formerly military

 

[SPO2 Dalisay]

I think that Magnum and Nuzo can't be anything but students to McGarrett and Hana. The timing with Lt. Commander McGarrett leaving the service 8 years ago compared to Lt. Commander Magnum and Major Calvin leaving 2 years ago is too far apart. The new character on 5-0, Junior on the other hand was a homeless SEAL veteran trying to join 5-0 upon his discharge

that's what I was thinking too. it looks like magnumeis lt commander but it's posible magaritt out ranked him as was he's a commader mostly mentioned . sam is a senor petty officer it's very possible.

as for TC this iswhyI said it's possble they were under the guy that was the handler for team scorpian. he 's a marin and former Cia guy turn homeland agent and was major too wayolder then TC. I can see him be part ofthat mixed unite as the leader. with jack's delta buddy as the third from three miltary departments.

 

[SPO2 Dalisay]

McGarrett was also a Lt. Commander. He has been medically discharged from the reserves due to receiving a liver transplant and radiation poisoning from the second time Hawaii got nuked.

ohyeah I remeber seeing and episode where they fought some free jumper criminal and both he and danny mentioned that they were still recovering from that. I thought McGarrett would have been promoted higher before he left the reserves. I guess in that case it's possible he'd would have been LT and magnum wasn't one in bud's til later where he and buddies be came POW's

 

[SPO2 Dalisay]

On the timeline McGarrett was a LT Commander 8 years ago working for Naval Intelligence and no longer on a Seal team when his father was murdered and Hawaii's Governor recruited him to run 5-0 and as a shield against her boss Wo Fat.. Two years ago Magnum was a SEAL officer in an Afghanistan POW camp. It is more likely that Magnum went from Lieutenant to Lieutenant Commander after his escape. And the team has been in Hawaii for two years with Rick making all sorts of local contacts but so far nobody is looking up their possibly ex boss McGarrett now a Hawaiian VIP.

It might have been possible for McGarrett to be given a bonus with his medical retirement by going from O-4 to O-5 and full silver oak leaf, three broad stripes, Commander. However McGarrett almost always introduced himself as Lt. Commander on 5-0.

I don't know as much about Sam Hana on NCIS but he has been out of the Navy at least ten years and presumably got his 20 years in before double dipping as a NCIS Agent. And he has almost 10 years on McGarrett, so a senior NCO while McGarrett was a junior officer. So a trainer of a young McGarrett while McGarrett could have been a boss/trainer of a young Magnum and Nuzo.

it's possble but sam like Gibbs ( the latter of the two in the orginal series who's a marine and way olderthen all of them is a gunery Sargent / sniper) is still known to be a reserest too .

I think it is possible they were all in buds camp but magnum may have ether been a young officer or may have just be comeone may be an ensen. And nuzu lower.

All I know for sure is that it's very likely Sam was in navy intel too with McGarret.

He could have trained them all before leaving for the Cia task force & met his wife.

BTw I'm pretty sure the shows push sam as slightly younger then LL cool J him self who's the same age as will smith. If Sam hanna left the Navy for the spy world / civilen Navy law enforcement . it's just possible he was their train and did some mission with them before all that. I know sam has a long history as train of agent inthe spy/ Law enforment under cover world.
it's possble he did the same in the seals too.

Caught the second episode yesterday, I really like this show, there's just a real charm and lighthearted fun to it. I was never a big fan of the original so I'm gonna be blunt, I prefer Jay Hernandez over Selleck who I never cared for as an actor until het got old and started playing roles like Jesse Stone, and I also think the new Higgins is a step up, sure she's beautiful but that's not it, she's a badass, she's got some dry one liners and her banter with Magnum is on point. I also think the new TC and Rick are very well cast.

As for whether Magnum and Higgins become a thing, I don't care either way but these shows are aimed at a demo that loves that "Will they? Won't they?" dynamic and it's clear the two have chemistry.

Nice to see Carl Weathers in a guest spot as well, he had two on TV last week.

As for this crossover, the Chicago shows do a great job with theirs so it can be done, I'd say streamline it though, McGarrett and Danno from Hawaii Five-0, Sam and Callen from NCIS LA and Magnum and Higgins from this show, not really sure MaGyver fits, it's goofier than the other shows. You can still filter some support characters in but stay centrally focused on those main pairings.

I didn't see it at first but her big sister was Sam in Foyle's War

I had no idea, now you say it though there is some similarities between her and Honeysuckle.

Sacrilege!

Jay Hernandez has a good voice for Magnum, I'll give him that. He has a kind of laid-back, Selleck-like delivery when he does the voiceovers. You need that for Magnum.

Apparently Perdita Weeks goes by Perdy. Well she is purdy.

 

[Dark Raven]

Another decent episode this week. Tim Kang has joined the cast too. Although I don't know why they need him and that other woman in the opening credits. They never had anyone else but the main 4 in the original series.

Higgins really is becoming the highlight of this show. She lights up every scene she's in. She's really pretty too. It's no wonder they keep using her much more in the action. Maybe she needs her own episode.

Magnum should cross paths with Sgt Duke Lukela.

If I remember the season finale last year, Duke was on leave due to his actions in a prior episode. I don't know if he's been mentioned in the last two episodes.

I forgot about that. I haven't checked to see if he's in the opening credits.

They should have a team up episode between Higgins and Catherine Rollins.

I n 2018 we are in a different place than in 1980. Remember Hawaii is mostly Asian and the showrunner is the same man with the political problem of seemingly favoring the white stars, or Scott Caan and his special deal in particular. 8 years ago there was plenty barking online about no ethnic Hawaiians on the cast and two Korean heritage actors playing a pair from a multi ethnic family.

I can't think of any legacy Asian character except LT Tanaka from the original Magnum. I However from that first trailer it looks like they renamed the HPD contact after reading the comments, just like they fixed TC's Staff Sergeant stripes and gave him a Major's oak leaves. But then after renaming the character when the actual HPD contact was recast the legacy LT. Tanaka name was already used. I am betting that there will be a lot more police contact in this show then on the original Magnum just like over on 5-0 Wo Fat had more appearances in the first 100 episodes of the remake than the original had in its entire run from the pilot to the finale.

I know that it is a remake of Magnum PI and not Hart to Hart t but the Magnum/Higgins team is working when they are together.

They could've just made Tim Kang as Lt Tanaka even if they used a different actor before. There's only been 3 episodes so far so the role could've just been recast. Pilots are often different from regular series anyway. It's not like they had to be bound by whom they cast in the first episode.

In the original Hawaii 5-0, Danno was played by a different actor to James MacArthur for the rest of the series.

I really like female Higgins. She is probably my favourite character on the show. I hope to see more of her. Maybe she'll go undercover one week.

Also, they must've filmed a few episodes before they created the title sequence. Some of it has scenes from the latest episode, eg Higgins swinging a golf club.

 

[Hunter Rider]

Another fun episode, probably the easiest watch on TV right now. Cho from The Mentalist being added to the cast is cool and it was interesting to see the lead from that short lived Magician cop show 'Deception' in a guest role.

Next weeks ep looks pretty cool as well!

 

[Webfoot Hero]

It's kinda too bad that so many people have vowed not to watch this show due to Hernandez not being Selleck and Higgins being a woman because it's actually quite a fun show. I think that while the new ones aren't exactly the same as the old ones, they're close enough for a reboot and I do find their chemistry to be one of the best things so far. I'd say that while Hernandez's Magnum doesn't have the inherent charm and manliness of Selleck's, I do appreciate his seriousness and earnestness while delivering the occasional one-liner. I do wish they'd make better use of TC and Rick since it seems they only appear maybe once or twice an episode. I liked Tim Kang on The Mentalist so it's good to see him getting work again on another CBS show.

As for that Magnum/McGarrett crossover, we have to hope this show gets a back 9 order since that's when Lenkov said such a meeting would occur. It's not exactly doing spectacular numbers and it's a co-production with NBC/Universal (meaning CBS doesn't get full revenue from it) but with H50 nearing its end, CBS likely would want to keep MPI going to take advantage of all the infrastructure and tax credits in Hawaii. Plus, considering it's going against The Voice and Monday Night Football and its lead-ins are two new comedies, I think CBS may give it a little more leeway with regards to its future renewal chances.

 

[Dr. Evil]

So what are the odds Willie Garson's character from 5-0 showing up here?

 

[SPO2 Dalisay]

I don't think that Gerald Hersch is important enough on 5-0 to get the look who showed up crossover audience from their fan base and putting him in, unless he became a Magnum reoccurring character takes away from magnum characters. Maybe transferring his crush from Kono to Higgins is a way but I don't see Juliet playing that. Him getting a spot takes a spot away from the Magnum reoccurring characters like Icepick, Carol, Agatha....

Now Dog the Bounty Hunter being in state so no flying an actor over, and in a related industry to Magnum's makes a good fit.

.

Truth be told, I was thinking of a way to make their past history be told before they became the men they did today. this doesn't necessarily mean they have to use thee very same actor's through out I was think prequel befor they all went to the places they are currently. it'll explain how jack from MacGuyer know those 4 seal's and two marines from magnum. current day that's another story that part I have fully worked out yet. but it's like not every from each will meet up. but the villain will have from those characters share military past
in joint unit. seals, Marins & Delta.

hmm, ofthe two rick seem to have more time to help magnum and shas access to fire arm's tc seem to be a full on civilain now that does favors compared to the orgial thatwould get into fire with magnum . anyway hopefully they do show more of them.& hopefully what you said on the latter happens .

 

[Dark Raven]

I still think TC and Rick are a bit generic. They could've gotten more interesting actors for those two. Roger E Mosley stood out far more than the actor playing the new TC. And the original Rick was far more distinctive. Those two now just seem like a couple of random dudes.

Higgins, on the other hand, is very distinctive and could easily have been the female lead on any show. It's no wonder she overshadows the other two.

 

[Hunter Rider]

They should move Blue Bloods to a Sunday night and put Magnum in the 3 hour Friday block with MacGyver and Hawaii Five-0.

Hawaii Five-0 didn't start off there originally. Maybe they don't want to put Magnum in the typical Friday night death slot. Maybe 3 hours of that is too much too. 2 hours might be doable.
