Magnum P.I. (1980-1988) IMDB Listing
Comments:
The show was a blend of great setting (Hawaii), humor and varying stories. With Magnum's Vietnam/military connections, along with the jetsetting friends of Robin Masters and, of course, Hawaii, there was a range of material that the writers drew from for action and intrigue. Tom Selleck was a great lead and the supporting cast, especially John Hillerman, brought the writing alive.
