So he’s going to be sofa surfing at a chick’s mansion this time?

That’s an improvement over the gay guy.

As much as I LOVE Magnum, P.I. AND Tom Selleck, I gotta vote NO on this one, too.

Is there ANYONE out there with any ORIGINAL ideas for new TV series?

(Yes, I’m STILL bitter over the cancellation of, ‘Firefly’ by the p*ssies at FOX!)

Also, this thread is USELESS without pictures! (I’ll get right on that...)

The new Magnum P.I. follows Thomas Magnum, a decorated ex-Navy SEAL...[and] what it means to return home an ex-soldier...

Typical Hollywood -- they don't know the difference between a sailor and a soldier. This won't end well.

Ooohhhh....

So this is why CBS has been calling me.

Never mind.

My wife looked at the screen and said CVS, the pharmacy called.

It seems the ointment for my rash is in.

Well, I’d have made a good Magnum.

Except for having to stop every hour to put on some ointment.

I guess it would have been like Fred Sanford in Hawaii.

A sure hit.

Oh sure, all PI's live on the Hawaiian coast, drive exotic cars, and all their cases involve all these beautiful female clients.

Gak...That world is just the opposite. Stupid Hollywood.

They’ll ruin it. The original was funny, and a little reverent about vet issues. This will be a scoldy, whiney, crappy one.

Are there no original ideas left?

Magnum P.I. was one of those “lightning in a bottle” things. Right actors, right concept at the right time and all that. It still holds up well on DVD (old cars aside).

I predict colossal failure. I also predict that, given today’s social justice climate, that Rick and T.C. will be gay lovers and that Magnum’s Ferrari will be replaced by a red Prius.

Its not the worst idea I’ve ever heard.

One good thing about these reboots, is that it keeps the original series alive (to some degree). Otherwise, it would just slowly fade away with its fans.

They destroyed Hawaii-5-0 and they’ll do the same here.

One of the few shows I watched in the 80’s. I wonder if it’s available on HULU, Sling or some other non-cable venue.

There can be only one Magnum, one Higgins and two lads. Sorry.

I'm still waiting for a remake of the TV show The Fugitive, this time instead of a doctor falsely accused of murdering his wife, an illegal alien on the run for killing people while DUI.

Co-written by Lenkov and fellow Hawaii Five-0 executive producer/showrunner Eric Guggenheim, Magnum P.I. will feature the same central quartet of characters but, instead of four guys, it will consist of three men and a woman, with Higgins (played by John Hillerman) reconceived as Juliet Higgins.

The limits of modern day creative thought, swapping gender or race in an endless parade of remakes.

Next up Laverne and Shirley, with Laverne as a tranny.

I never was a fan of that show. Did approve of his choice of sidearm, however.

There will never be another Tom Selleck.

Who is going to play the new Magnum? He will have big shoes to fill.

A transgender PI in Magnum shorts. It’ll be great, honest!
