Post by r***@gmail.com… I'm not at all apprehensive in watching the updated version of the
Mag given some of it's obvious political correctness. As a Viet Nam
Vet, Magnum Senior was the best medicine for me at the time and I'm
thinking maybe, just maybe the current vets that have returned from the
mid-east arena are in search of the same. I'll approach the update with
an open mind and a tease that what I'll be watching is a Magnum Jr that
emulates his father's footsteps. Mag Sr's footstep will be hard to
fill but maybe Junior will eventually fit in to them. We'll see but
till then..... I'm still lost in nostalgia.

Based on the trailer, I'll definitely watch it.
But it could also be that the trailer contains the best 4 minutes of the pilot.
We'll see.
But...Nuzzo...Nuzzo...yeah, they called him Sebastian Nuzzo...not to be
confused with Sebastian Nuzo, who actually had died over in "Nam but
who "came back from the dead" played by Ivan's operative in the scheme
to drug TC to kill the Japanese dignitary.
OK, it's a nod to us, but it's a nod I don't like.
On the other hand..."I need a car" followed by Thomas pulling the old
308 out of storage? Killer. Someone saw "Skyfall" and said, "I can do
that!" (Question: was it the actual final 1985 model 308QV used in
the show? Did someone keep it around and make it available for this?)
And they kept the iconic Post/Carpenter music, at least for the
trailer. Will they keep it for good? Regardless, if H50 is any
indicator, they'll butcher it down to 27 seconds.
