I was seeing if the new "Criminal Mind" was up but it wasn't so I looked to see what else CBS had. Came across this https://www.cbs.com/shows/magnum-pi/video/_X2gfmTOBVMXf1tV_aB5j3Z5uSoQKzFV/magnum-p-i-i-saw-the-sun-rise/
Midway through I guess it's okay.

Why? I know everything '80s needs a comeback and no original thought required. Also why is TC still black? I mean Higgans is a girl and young.

I kind a like the new 1911 a STI Costa Carry Comp.

    I'd rather watch re-runs of the original series.

    Sounds horrible. But on the plus side, Last Man Standing is this Friday.

    Yeah, they have been advertising it for months. Like re-making Psycho, it ain't gonna get better, but maybe they will make some money.

    I think hollyweird has run out of ideas or they are too scared of a new idea that might not be PC enough.

    Its like the last star wars crap. How can a storm trooper be bl*ck? They were all cloned from one guy and he looks like a Hawaiian.

    Now magnum PI is a mexican?

    what a bunch of crap.

    The old show was one of my wife?s favorites. She thought Tom was hot in that series, and most everything else he has been in...[8D]

    She saw the adds for the new show, and I asked what she thought, and all she said was...?Mhhh?...[xx(]

    So, based on that I don?t think we will be watching it in our house...[^]

    More watchable than "MacGyver" re-make. Barely got through that one. They destroyed two Ferraris. Even the 308. But they kept the Helicopter. I would've thought being in Hawaii that helo would've been scrapped. Now I wonder if the matching VW van will make an appearance?

    Say how is the remake of "Hawaii Five 0"? I know I should watch it since I think Kelly Hu is on it?

    Sam06 - Is that what he is? What's Mexican for Magnum? Actually what kind a last name is Magnum?

    mag00 - We shall see. I wonder if one of the daughters turned African or a boy?

    I wonder if anyone has ever thought about what the remake of a great movie or series is going to be like during the time the show first is aired? [:0]

    As a 12 year old kid I can actually remember first seeing "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" and thinking to myself that this would make a pretty good movie!

    When Jim Carrie took on the role, I knew that Hollywood should have asked me my choice before the movie was made. Tim Curry from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" would have been my choice! He had the Grinch face and mouth for it without much make up![:)]

    Been watching this and it's just meh. I really wanted to like it more but it's just background noise while I do stuff.

    I am curious to see the new "Ice Pick". I'm kind a curious to see if he's a she on this. How crazy would it be if it were a trans that got exiled to Hawaii?
