This new Magnum show better have


a shit ton of helicopter action! I care more about the casting of T.C. than Magnum.

I'm all about Zeus and Apollo, Carol, Mac, Agatha, Ice-Pick, Orville and Higgins than I am about T.C. or Thomas!

Higgins is probably the most crucial casting. They'll probably make it a woman.

I bet they go pit bulls for the dogs.

reply

That'd be a mistake I think.

reply

Dobermans aren't popular anymore. They gotta cater to the audience. But yes, it would be a mistake.

reply

I agree but pitbulls would still be a mistake with how they are seen in the general public.

Alsatians would be the safest choice for today's audience I reckon.

reply

They already made major changes.Higgy baby's a young woman now and they ditched the iconic mustache.I guess ditching the stache is ok.It looked good on Selleck but it doesn't work for every actor.But Higgins a woman.As Higgins would say in disdain OH MY GOD!!.

reply

Is young Higgins junior still a Higgins or is she a Masters?!?!

reply

they haven't even mentioned Robin Masters.I wonder if the character is even a part of the new show.

reply

It's not Magnum without Thomas wondering about who is paying him HorrorFan!

That'd be like...well...a reboot of Magnum that didn't stick to any of the original cast or story and thought they could make it up as they went along and not be spitting in the faces of fans of a masterpiece.

They wouldn't do that now, would they?

Look how that worked out for Ghostbusters 2016.

A prime example of Hollywood thinking that a brand name is more important than source material.It was the actors and characters that made the original what it was not the title.

If they play their cards right they'll have a pile of old fans and a whole slew of new ones on board for this Magnum.

If they play their cards right and respect the original material Hf.
