But I'm not holding my breath. Rick's been the writer's room punching bag for emotional drama for quite a while now. Its a good thing the *handwaving* isn't a literal thing with this series, because we'd be testing if its true or not that you can get carpal tunnel syndrome from just watching a TV show. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7233612

And that case just happens to involve bent cops. For some reason the unarmed duo goes into a house with guns to take fire and find a dying Jimmy Woo, And then Rick tags in so Juliet and Lia can do some bonding over their man Thomas. In the end the bent cops unknowing take on a SEAL and Special Ops Marine. I do wonder if the navy or his uncle taught Magnum archery.

Luckily Magnum has a slow metabolism 🙄 As someone who hails from a place that takes tug of war very seriously I have to say that it's possible for a well coordinated team to take out a team that's heavier and bulkier. Key word is 'well-coordinated' - several folks on Magnum's team were merely holding on to the rope while the other team tumbled into the sand like characters from a silent film comedy skit. I guess Levy Tran will be back? I liked her on MacGyver - not her fault that the writers decided to throw her character into a triangle of doom. Which might happen here again.

Snazzy Daisy April 8, 2022 Share April 8, 2022 Magnum P.I.'s Jay Hernandez Talks Directing a 'Ghost' Story, His 'Miggy' POV, Why Renewal Doesn't Worry Him TVLINE | Are there any developments for Thomas and Juliet (played by Perdita Weeks) in this episode? To some extent, it’s building up to something that’s going to happen in the season finale (airing May 6). We’ve teased this relationship dynamic for a while, and the audience wants to see what’s going to happen with that. So, we’re doing something with that in the finale that’s pretty interesting. But ultimately, at least in my mind, I don’t think they should be together. TVLINE | I was going to ask, what excites or interests you about them perhaps one day getting together, and what concerns you if that happens? Well, my perspective is that if that happens, it’s at the end of the show. Not the end of the season, but the end of the entire show. So, I don’t think it’s going to happen anytime soon. I think that tension and the dynamic between Higgins and Magnum is a big part of why the show works, and if you take that away and they become a couple, the show loses a lot, and it would change in so many different ways. So, yeah, I feel like we’d kind of rob ourselves of some great stuff if we got into that too early. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7389416

To some extent, it’s building up to something that’s going to happen in the season finale (airing May 6). We’ve teased this relationship dynamic for a while, and the audience wants to see what’s going to happen with that. So, we’re doing something with that in the finale that’s pretty interesting. But ultimately, at least in my mind, I don’t think they should be together. TVLINE | I was going to ask, what excites or interests you about them perhaps one day getting together, and what concerns you if that happens?

Its long been known the question has changed from 'if', to 'when' Miggy will become canon. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7389813
Daff April 9, 2022 Share April 9, 2022 Just a bit of interesting trivia for OS Magnum fans. The Veteran’s brother “Danny” (Robert Pine) appeared (uncredited) at least three times as Thomas’s (Sellick) late father. 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7391087
Snazzy Daisy April 9, 2022 Share April 9, 2022 S04•E18 - Shallow Grave, Deep Water Don’t really like this episode. Too much Miggy foreshadowing, it’s nauseating!🤮 Hey TC, you look so weird with that lampshade moustache. It’s fugly. The only thing that I like is seeing Katsumoto riding his Ducati! 😎 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7391284

I did not love that Hot Widower only called and did not appear in person 😒 The rest was pretty much painting by the numbers, deftly handled but not particularly exciting. Of course the show's skittish about the Moonlighting curse - even if there are shows who managed to escape it, it's a risk you take when you go down the will they - won't they route 🤷♀️ As lang as that does not become the main focus of the show it can work out. Having a strong ensemble of interesting characters beyond the OTP helps. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7391383

But am glad that Cole Vaughn was mentioned. Hopefully we will see him again next season…🤞🏻 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7391455
Johannah April 11, 2022 Share April 11, 2022 I'd actually rather see Magnum and Higgins become a couple than watch angst. Why do TV shows think everyone likes watching sexual tension? Well, maybe others do, but not me. You actually can write about a couple that loves each other and works well together without ruining the show. Writers, try that. Be innovative. But yeah, more Niall Matter would be nice. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/74202-magnum-pi-2018-general-discussion/page/20/#findComment-7394518
