it's a great shot but your comment is extremely ignorant. get out of your bubble of experience, this was 35 years ago and television has had a few gems since this. old old person.
ignorant. it was good but your statement is hyperbole and lessens the integrity of the true merit of this show. shame on dumb people who comment dumb things.
the funny thing is it's not the best show of the 80's. Star Trek was, but that's like comparing an acura NSX to an Audi turbo or Mercedes turbodiesel it's so late in the 80's it's basically a different time. Magnum PI fit in right between Roots and Star Trek and then the Simpsons
I loved Magnum P.I. so very much as a kid in the 80's. This show helped define a decade, and showed a generation (Generation-X) how to be cool. This was my favorite 80's TV show. Sadly I never got the chance to see this part until now. Thank you.
There was an episode around season 6 or so where something had happened to Higgins (went missing or something) and both dogs were so distraught, they sought out Magnum for comfort. It was sweet.
In only 5 minutes, Thomas Magnum was responsible for the best character introduction, as well as an epic "exit stage right". Tom Selleck, you are a beautiful cocky bastard. We love you!
Like so many folks, I love the M.PI series. My question is! Why is there no platform where one can subscribe and continue to enjoy these timeless classics!
In one of the latest episodes, both the new Rick and new TC have mustaches and they crack a line about whether Magnum could grow one and if he'd look good with one or not.
Selleck used to Live up the Street from Me when we were living in Honolulu. He lived at Black Point, our house was down the street on Aukai. Used to drive his Black CJ7 down our street all the time....Memories..
Loved the show when I was a teenager ! I remember that I always wanted one of those team rings. Finally got one in 2005 made of 10k yellow gold ! Wear it religiously 😊
Es gibt nur einen Magnum PI , Tom Selleck👋👍. Diese kultserie aus den 80ern ist für mich immer noch gern zu sehen.👍 Und diese neu Auflage /Verfilmung kommt eh nicht an das original heran👎. Tom Selleck war/ist einfach ein genialer Charakter Schauspieler, bis heute!! . Unerreicht und einmalig. ❣️👋👋👍👍Und vor allem als Jesse Stone auch nur genial!! ☺️ Mein persönlicher Favorit. ❣️❣️👍
Pilot Episode: “Don’t eat the snow in Hawaii” Best scene in the whole series. Remember watching this (the premiere) with my dad in 1980 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 But of trivia: someone was standing out of frame to catch the roof when Tom Selleck slid it back.
My daughter deals with ADD and can sometimes overwhelm herself and have a break down / lock up . Tears it can be ugly. I always told her “dont look at the dogs. Focus only on whats in front of you” Dads will use anything to help their girls. Today at 19 years old i had to dust this one off and tell her again and wouldnt you know I find this clip in my feed! Shared it with her. Now she knows Dad isnt original but the phrase still works for her.
This show is so good. Tam Selleck was just amazing. I'm in the 7th season now and the show gets better with time. The opening of the 6th season is great, and the 7th season is basically a movie in LA. It's amazing the way they keep building up the show.
Watched this every week in the 80's. Damn I'm 53 today where did the time go. My wife was born and raised on Oahu, not too far from where this show was filmed ( Kailua). Sadly the house was demolished .
Most of the outside scenes at "Robin's Nest" were Filmed in Waimanolo. I watched the "Foiled Again" episode being filmed there and got to meet Tom Selleck and John Hillerman, it was really a great day
I wish they would have made a new series comeback with them all back in it no reboot series with nobodies in it. Its cool having the theme as my ringtone
every time I see the original series and the new series with the dobermans I think one think I love the lads the lads in the paws they are just so smart both sets of dobermans I love the lads the lads in the paws truth
Magnum P.I Actual programa, a mí ver un desastre televisivo. Tom Selleck, único y eterno Magnum. Le otorgaba credibilidad al personaje en su forma de ser: duro, irónico y demás cualidades de Magnum. Marcó una época, a mí ver, cómo decíamos en los 60/70: Un Clásico de la 📺.🎉🎉🎉
There was one episode in season 7 I think that almost deliberately played like a Miami Vice episode and quite effective, too. I think the makers of Magnum were simply trying out new things.
used to watch this a lot not so much in the early 80's since I was too young but as got older mid and later 80's into the 90's on reruns became my favorite show. then i learned they were making a reboot or at one point before movie, i still think they should have flipped roles with magnum and higgins, i.e. the older magnum which now somewhat resembles higgins more becomes the caretaker of estate and there is a new pi living there that could have made a great story lines seems to me
Certain Actors in person you wouldn't look twice at in person.. However my mother met Tom Selleck in Malibu back in 1990 and she said in person he was stop in your tracks beautiful. She said in person he's far FAR more attractive than television shows him.. He's 6'4 with an excellent body and of course that iconic mustache and Face. ❤
They used panaflex film, which I understand is movie quality film. Some shows used cheaper stuff, and it shows. Somebody made the decision not to cheap out. Goodson them!
4:40 - You can clearly tell that they were struggling to time the gate closing with the car racing through, and they must have been doing it manually-the gate seems to pause momentarily as the car passes through, then noticeably speeds up after the car is gone! 4:59 - This shot of the Ferrari taking off is also in the opening credits for all 8 seasons, showing the “56E 478” license plate, before they got the “ROBIN 1” custom plate made.
Ich bin stolz auf unsere deutsche Synchron Tradition, wenn ich die erschreckende Originalstimme von Tom Selleck jetzt zum ersten Mal höre... schrecklich.
1st episode of the show. Ferrari 308GTS currently worth if in cared for and maintained condition,mileage except,$120k to $160k post china flu. Pre china flu $60k to $80k over $80k would have been collector condition. Not particularly fast or quick or as good in corners as people think, gated manual transmission bit slow and clunky. But is over all agreed that it's the most fun Ferrari to have and enjoy.
Magnum darting off in the Ferrari smiling at the camera is one of the most iconic moments in television history!
it's a great shot but your comment is extremely ignorant. get out of your bubble of experience, this was 35 years ago and television has had a few gems since this. old old person.
So true......
Me and my buddy's tried to duplicate that scene countless times growing up with our cars!
Love him
Absolutely
the way he takes off with the smirk at 4:55 has been ingraved in my memories since i was a kid. bad ass
Yeah, it’s fun when you know he just throw the targa away.
Memories are always treasured. _*Paul, Liverpool UK _*
I have that pictured in my head when i always take off in my corvette.
The greatest TV show ever made with the greatest protagonist.
It was perfect.
OH MY GOD MAGNUM.....and TC always calling Higgins "Higgy Baby"🤣
Don't "Higgy Baby me"
@@thadevilzadvocate 🤣🤣🤣
TC was cool
@@LordTalax He was! Loved how he and Rick would be wearing platform shoes and either have to run or fight in them! 🤣
THE best show of the 1980s. Iconic.
ignorant. it was good but your statement is hyperbole and lessens the integrity of the true merit of this show. shame on dumb people who comment dumb things.
We were spoilt for choice - Miami Vice, The A Team, Knight Rider, Dukes of Hazzard, 21 Jump Street, MacGyver... it goes on and on!
@@AchtungBaby77 Hunter, Airwolf, Hill Street Blues. I even miss the static snow and test pattern.😁

Magnum PI was the best television show of the 80s.
I loved that show, the entire cast was brilliant
Magnum breaking the 4th wall is the best. But he was always talking to us through out the series.
I watched every episode as a kid back in the 80s with my dad. Best show ever.
"Don't look at the dogs. Work the lock." is something I've muttered more than once when concentrating on something under time pressure. :)
I loved Magnum P.I. so very much as a kid in the 80's. This show helped define a decade, and showed a generation (Generation-X) how to be cool. This was my favorite 80's TV show. Sadly I never got the chance to see this part until now. Thank you.
The two Dobermans, Zeus and Apollo, always cracked me up!
They'd do more than crack you up if they caught you.
Don’t look at the dogs pick the lock!
There was an episode around season 6 or so where something had happened to Higgins (went missing or something) and both dogs were so distraught, they sought out Magnum for comfort. It was sweet.
I loved Magnum as a kid. Mags was always kind of a big kid pulling one over on Higgins
Higgins and Magnum were like brothers - they fought one another, but had a deep respect for each other.
Oh love this clip. Has all the perfect elements in it. The "lads",the voice-over, the smirks on both faces of Higgins & Thomas. Thanks for posting.
In only 5 minutes, Thomas Magnum was responsible for the best character introduction, as well as an epic "exit stage right".
Tom Selleck, you are a beautiful cocky bastard. We love you!
Thomas Magnum "Tom Selleck", wasn't cocky at all. Just making fun of himself.
@@sandrabarnwell8017 Tom Selleck would've gotten the joke. ☺️
Like so many folks, I love the M.PI series. My question is! Why is there no platform where one can subscribe and continue to enjoy these timeless classics!
Yes you can I watch a daily on roku, I watch a couple of episodes every night. I think also on prime or paramount
The REAL Magnum P. I.
Definitely better to watch reruns, than remakes.
@@AFloridaSon 💯👊🏻
Is there a remake of Magnum PI??! 😂
@@LaurenMiddleton28 Yes but there is NO replacement for Tom Selleck and the original cast.
Yeah! The new ones (actors)aren't charming nor attractive. Can't take them seriously. Very much like the remake of McGyver.
4:37 Magnum: "Higgins, you yoyo!"
4:54 Magnum just leaves the roof at the side of the road. great show
exactly what i thought....
3:08 The iconic smile that doesn't last long............
Something Jay Hernandez can't get over
The Jay Hernandez show is NEVER going to be Magnum PI
Man madr mustaches so desireable _*Paul, Liverpool UK _*
In one of the latest episodes, both the new Rick and new TC have mustaches and they crack a line about whether Magnum could grow one and if he'd look good with one or not.

That was the first scene I ever watched of Magnum PI (not sure whether it is the pilot or not), I was hooked instantly
It is
Really the most succesfull tv show , today i'm 53 and i wanna be Magnum !!! Tom Selleck is the only one .
Same age, and in total agreement
I love the slide he does at the end. Leaving skid tracks in the grass
Pilot Episode: “Don’t eat the snow in Hawaii”
Best scene in the whole series. Remember watching this (the premiere) with my dad in 1980 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
But of trivia: someone was standing out of frame to catch the roof when Tom Selleck slid it back.
This was the pilot episode?!
@@chadbailey7038 Yes
Simply the best show ever because Tom Selleck is the sexiest guy ever on TV. I watched every episode all eight seasons and many more times in reruns.
Yeah, I Was In My 20's Watching Magnum. I Like The One Where He Went Back In Time & Drove A Bugatti Instead Of His Ferrari.
I really enjoy this show and I enjoy him on Blue Bloods too He still can get that smile 😃🙏🤩
It has the feel of a major motion picture. I love that. It adds quality to the scene.
Looking for this clip for years! 2:52 "Don't look at the dogs!!!!!
"You looked at the dogs!"
I loved this show. It was a nice follow up on Hawai'i 50 giving us a look at Hawai'i and it's charm.
One of my childhood memories is watching this when it first aired.
One of the best shows on TV of all time. The cast was AWESOME
That knowing smirk at the camera in the red Ferrari, Burt Reynolds also did that take in Smokey & the Bandit in his black Trans Am. Such a fun era.
yes Tom Selleck was the charming DETECTIVE THOMAS MAGNUM in Magnum PI , loved the show.
Great show, and the pilot is one of my favorite episodes.
My daughter deals with ADD and can sometimes overwhelm herself and have a break down / lock up . Tears it can be ugly. I always told her “dont look at the dogs. Focus only on whats in front of you” Dads will use anything to help their girls. Today at 19 years old i had to dust this one off and tell her again and wouldnt you know I find this clip in my feed!

For me, that Ferrari is the coolest TV car ever.
Even though its their slowest one ever wich is why you only see it peel out in dirt because that's the only way it could 😂😂 still sweeeet ride
Only had about 250 hp, and only at 6000 rpm plus.
Yes the Magnums Ferrari was Awesome just like the white Ferrari that Crockett had in Miami vice
I'm a simple lady, Tom Selleck with his top off, I click.
I love classic TV shows from the 80s. This one is in a league of it's own. 🎉
I miss this show and all the other shows from growing up. Watching these clips brings me to a better time !
5:52 did they have a couple of guys just off screen grabbing that Targa top? Where the heck did it go?!
Whoa, where did the roof go when he pulled it back?!?
Magnum has production assistants that nobody else has.
T.V. magic, buddy boy
@@paulhansen7667 😂😂
@4:52 yep i thought the same thing, 2 guys off camera must've grabbed it lol
Its a Targa top and is stored behind the seats . Seems he didnt need it lol. But still a great show , one of the best of the eighties .
Favorite TV show of all time.
This show is so good. Tam Selleck was just amazing. I'm in the 7th season now and the show gets better with time. The opening of the 6th season is great, and the 7th season is basically a movie in LA. It's amazing the way they keep building up the show.
Yeah, that was in Episode 1 - opening scene. Been re-watching on DVD..great series
One if not the only good show back in the 80s
I grew up in Cleveland in the 70s, live half an hour from Pearl/Hickam now 😊
I'm shocked he figured out the gate code when he did.
That made she sow. 😀
Watched this every week in the 80's. Damn I'm 53 today where did the time go. My wife was born and raised on Oahu, not too far from where this show was filmed ( Kailua). Sadly the house was demolished .

MAGNUM PI IS ABSOLUTE GOLD❣️
2:46
This is funny because the time was not enough for the dogs to run through. :D
Loved this show and love the car
I wish they would have made a new series comeback with them all back in it no reboot series with nobodies in it. Its cool having the theme as my ringtone
i want Tom to narrate my life he's my fav actor ever, it's great how hilarious he can be with just a smile
Loved that car. They should bring it back for the new show.
That new show needs to die
@@MattKearneyFan1 Agreed.
Can't. They destroyed it in the first episode making it a disrespectful remake that shouldn't have ever happened.
Im sure a anonymous owner has it with very low miles *_Paul, Liverpool UK_*
Zues and Apollo 🔥👍
First combo that Magnum tried was 1138. Minor shoutout to George Lucas and his first film. Cheers.
Lucas used a version of this number(Milners license number) in American Graffiti and a stormtroopers call number in Star Wars.
"Fate wouldn't do that to me". Selleck said the same thing in the Jesse Stone movies.
Did anyone notice when he took the top off the Ferrari he just shoved it back like it would go on the back of the car and then on the ground ....lol
every time I see the original series and the new series with the dobermans I think one think I love the lads the lads in the paws they are just so smart both sets of dobermans I love the lads the lads in the paws truth
Robin Masters also had a green Ferrari , Robin 2. It appeared in at least one episode,when Robins nephew turned up and used it.
Man, those dimples😍 Such an awesome show❤❤❤

man i miss this show .it was the best thing on tv in the 80s watched every time it was on. unlike that garbage called magnum pi on tv nowadays
I still say "Work The Lock" as a way of telling myself not to get distracted.
My god Tom Selleck was so handsome back in those days! 😍😍😍
There's no way that dog was trained to smash into the gate like that!
Perhaps accidental beauty shot _*Paul, Liverpool UK _*
Sure, if it was a normal guard dog wouldn't, but these dogs are actors
@@marvenlunn6086 could it be a very lucky shot?
@BassicVIC lucky shot, what do you mean the dogs ran into the gate
@@marvenlunn6086 I’m only pointing at the chances of that happening. Nothing more.
anyone notice how Thomas slid the 308GTS black top into the hands of the film crew?
It normally stows behind the seats !
Magnum and Columbo. Best shows ever made
Very first episode 👍🏼
These early episodes are literally better directed, acted and scripted than the theatre motion pictures being made today. FACTS
Excellent show
4:54 where did the top go?
Those women are both approaching 70 years-old now. Think about that.
I believe it I’m 72 😮
This show was great fun to watch good memories
Loved this show as a kid and hate its reboot as an adult.
Yup. The reboot is complete trash.
Full episodes please 💎
When TV was actually good!
It’s a shame the Higgins mansion has been demolished. Met Tom Sellect and Morgan Fairchild in 85.
Magnum P.I. for Fun and Miami Vice for Drama.
There was one episode in season 7 I think that almost deliberately played like a Miami Vice episode and quite effective, too. I think the makers of Magnum were simply trying out new things.

Somewhere on the side of the road in Hawaii is a 308 targa top
why does this show look so good? I mean it's not faded or anything
They used panaflex film, which I understand is movie quality film. Some shows used cheaper stuff, and it shows. Somebody made the decision not to cheap out. Goodson them!
Is this the pilot
Yes
Man the 80s ruled.
Yes am a fan
Magnum is now selling, reverse mortgages
I think he is starring on Blue Bloods. I think about 12 seasons or so.

Not particularly fast or quick or as good in corners as people think, gated manual transmission bit slow and clunky.
