seacliffsal November 17, 2021 Share November 17, 2021 I enjoyed this episode. It was nice that Magnum was on his own (old school) and was able to show his charm and skills. It seems like with Magnum and Higgins are together, she shows off and he is just waiting. Liked that Rick, TC, and Shammy had a bit more focus on their stories. I'm all for the MI6 plot as long as it keeps Higgins in a separate sphere (I don't hate her or anything, but, the show is called Magnum after all and I like how Jay plays Magnum). 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-7123742

Why were the words 'witness protection' never even mentioned in this episode. Sure, his buddy had no proof that he had killed the Fed in self-defense but the fact that the Albanian mafia was after him means that he's got pretty valuable info and therefore some leverage 🤷♂️ As much as I enjoyed Higgins and Katsumoto's reactions to Kumu's knowledge about E.D. meds I think there were more than enough jokes about geriatric sex in this episode.

No improvement at all! 🤦🏻♀️ It’s funny to see Gordy cheerfully gloated to Lia because Thomas was coming to her for favors, only to have Juliet call him for a favor. Between agent Helmet Hair and Thomas, apparently Lia has a type! 😂 Now I have to wait until Dec 3 to find out what the Albanian mobs gonna do to Rick.

I haven’t watched it yet (I work 2nd shift Tues-Sat so I watch later on Paramount+), but it sounds like CBS is using the push-pull theory. For example, Magnum & Higgins have their moment at the end of Season 2, yet she later falls for Ethan in Season 3 & Magnum doesn’t like it w/o realizing it. Then they start Season 4 with EXACTLY what we want (Magnum & Higgins getting it on 😍🙏…in a dream lol) & breaks up with Ethan yet Magnum is currently dating Kaleo (who I think is way more attractive than Higgy) yet they still have their moments together. IMO, Magnum & Higgins will finally have their scene in Season finale.

The show makes it obvious there's some attraction there. 2. The show flirts with it. Other people notice. Encourage it. 3. The characters themselves come just shy of admitting it. 4. Just when you think it's about to happen, they find a significant other. 5. That relationship lasts until they either realize their feelings for each other are stronger than for the one they're with, the one they're with realizes they can't compete, or the show finds a way for the couples to break up.

Snazzy Daisy December 12, 2021 Share December 12, 2021 (edited) S04•E09 - Better Watch Out I like this episode except for Miggy’s numerous eye f*ck.🙄 Interesting COTW with nice backstory and character development for Lia. It is quite hypocrite and self-righteous of Thomas to be saying this about Lia; “You think you know somebody but then you find out it’s not the case”. From what we know, their relationship is more sexual and transactional. Have they shared all their skeletons with each other yet? Don’t think so. Is Thomas trying to get out of their relationship so soon? Thomas/Lia’s first crack ☑️ Wow, can Juliet be any louder? 🤦🏻♀️ “She doesn’t know what she’s missing, Magnum.” “Reality’s just too complicated.” Either the inevitable Miggy is coming sooner than I expected (yuck!) or TPTB craves for weekly #Miggy trending. When Cade was introduced, I thought he’s gonna be an obnoxious, problematic young man but he isn’t (yet). I like him, a nice addition to their Ohana. And I like Barry too. He’s not as annoying as Jin. It’s so sweet of Kumu to help Barry getting the PS5 that he wants for his kid.

Made my day quite frankly. Oh, and I really liked Higgins and Magnum in their holiday get-ups (and when Magnum changed clothes, I really like the Christmas colored tropical shirt).

As a star of the hit series MacGyver, she played Desi Nguyen, an U.S. Army Ranger tasked as a bodyguard who dated The Phoenix Foundation's handyman. Levy Tran will play Tia Min, the formidable bodyguard of a powerful crime lord. While loyal to her boss, she has her own code of ethics. Tia Min is willing to work with Magnum so long as his interests align with her employer. Levy Tran is trained in eskrima, muay thai, boxing, silat and jiu jitsu. Magnum P.I. resumes its fourth season on Friday, Jan. 7 with the episode “Dream Lover,” in which a woman hires Magnum and Higgins to locate a man she met briefly at a coffee shop and felt a spark with.

iRarelyWatchTV36 January 8, 2022 Share January 8, 2022 Don't you just love it when the main thrust of an episode is completely centered around the Miggy WT/WT? I mean, I sure as hell don't mean to make light of cancer and its sufferers, but when you focus on the endgame subplot early on and then a few minutes later have the client double-down on that exact same point, in an indirect way, to enforce the message?? I about fractured my skull because I facepalmed so hard. And they didn't take long to sideline Lia completely [not listed in the cast list for next episode, either]. The synopsis for next week's episode says Jin will be back, but why do they need a character like Jin when Rick is virtually the same character (at least) a few times per season already? IE, a character who provides slapstick-like comedy while tackling the episode's B-plot. The B-plot in this episode is a prime example of what I'm talking about. And we all know that even though Magnum was on his way to pay off his tab at La Mariana, they'll be bagging on him in the next episode or two about how his tab has started to pile up again - or how he owes money to TC or someone else - or some other way about how he's just a mooch.

They just took her word for everything and were going to help her find him. I didn't really stop to think about this, but you're totally right. Especially after how Higgins ended up being shot because of the events started by she and Magnum buying the story their 'client' gave them about looking for her long lost brother, when in reality she was part of a 2-person hit team looking to whack the guy they had Magnum and Higgins track down for them - referring to last season's premiere, of course. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-7221399

This makes me think of the Woman Who Never Died (S1E3) where a guy hired Magnum to figure out why his comatose fiancée had had extensive plastic surgery. Of course, everything turned out ok in the end but the client had no right to any of the information unless the woman chose to explain. And I can think of several reasons she would have wanted that kept secret (one of which played out in the episode but no one pointed out it was Magnum and the guy's fault).

seacliffsal January 15, 2022 Share January 15, 2022 I really enjoyed this episode (except for the ending-we do NOT need an infant on this show as it would totally change all of the dynamics). I also understood why Jin was in this episode (to get someone into the vet office) and thought he wasn't as irritating as I normally find him. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-7232287
Snazzy Daisy January 15, 2022 Share January 15, 2022 S04•E11 - If I Should Die Before I Wake TC: “Question?” Jin: “Yes, the good-looking investor in the front row.” For the first time, I agree with Jin! 😘 ————————————————————— Rick: "I want her to be happy." TC: "I‘m sure you do and that‘s great. But it‘s ok to let her know where you stand instead of just waiting to see where she does." TC should give the same advice to Thomas… 😆 Err how long has it been since Suzy left? Why is she telling Rick now? I guess they will have a baby boy, Rick will name him Robbie. And Miggy will be his godparents! 🙄 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-7232370
Msample January 16, 2022 Share January 16, 2022 I was really hoping the lads would get to take a bite out of the kidnappers. Katsumoto faking out Miggy with the phone call was hilarious. 2 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-7232618
iRarelyWatchTV36 January 16, 2022 Share January 16, 2022 (edited) Not a bad episode - surprising since it involved Jin - but mostly because most of the run time wasn't yet another heavy-handed advertisement of the Miggy endgame. Bit too convenient how the people Magnum & Higgins were after were at the same vet clinic that Jin took the lads to, but hey, its a TV show. And classic Jin, starting a dog walking business to fleece money from suckers, but doesn't know dogs shouldn't have chocolate. And seriously Higgy, you trust Jin with the lads? I thought you loved them?? Also, Jin told Kumu he got the energy bars from Magnum's fridge... so does that mean that Jin has free unfettered access to anywhere he pleases at Robin's Nest? That's asking for trouble. @SnazzyDaisy, you said Miggy will be named the godparents of Rick and Suzy's baby, but don't forget about TC. He'll be the other godfather.

MissLucas January 16, 2022 Share January 16, 2022 I loved Katsumoto tricking Magnum and Higgins! Bit convenient that nobody ever asked about the money and the cops on site just ignored Magnum who wasn't exactly doing a stellar job hiding *handwaving* I don't mind Jing and he was useful - as for the coincidence of him being at the vet clinic the perps showed up *more handwaving* Rick becoming a father would be a nice change of pace for this show that likes to keep everyone single and/or in an endless loop of will they/won't they. But I'm not holding my breath. Rick's been the writer's room punching bag for emotional drama for quite a while now. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/19/#findComment-7233594
