Post/Carpenter theme

The original theme by Mike Post and Pete Carpenter would most likely used when the series premiered. --73.184.6.244 (talk) 01:06, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

POW in Afghanistan?

Watching episode 1.1, Magnum's narration says he and his buddies all spent time as POWs in Afghanistan. I guess that may belong in the article, but wasn't Bowe Bergdahl the only GI to be held captive by the Taliban. The Taliban tortured him, so he wasn't held as a POW.

As of yet, there is no character expansion here. The above might belong in the Thomas Magnum article, but, even if added here, it's still considered dramatic license. — Wyliepedia @ 04:10, 26 September 2018 (UTC)

Were Episodes 1 and 2 made together?

Owing to the fact that two of the show's regulars, Amy Hill and Tim Kang, do not debut until episode 3, and episodes 1 and 2 take place back-to-back chronologically and feature one major shared guest star and also have some plot links, do we know if the episode 2 was filmed in the same production block as the pilot? 50.66.121.20 (talk) 13:17, 9 October 2018 (UTC)

Retcon Hawaii Five-0 Season 3, Episode 19?

With the crossovers with Hawaii Five-0 (so far all from 5-0 to P.I.) that must mean the ending to Hoa Pili (Close Friend) S03E19 of Hawaii Five-0 is retconned out of existence. That's when Kamekona has received his helicopter pilot license and is giving Steve, Danny, and Max a ride when Max starts doing the Magnum P.I. theme. Danny stops Max and asks if he's having a seizure. After a short discussion about the Magnum P.I. TV show, they all join in on the theme, which segues to the original Magnum theme music.

Recurring Characters

Can Domenick Lombardozzi really be considered recurring when his character dies in the first 15 minutes of the first episode? (I haven't watched further yet, so maybe he appears in flashbacks) --184.64.102.148 (talk) 09:28, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

Yes, he's been in several flashbacks. Bizzybody (talk) 00:17, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

Tattoo

What's the "78" tattoo on Magnum's/Hernandez's inner left upper arm mean? 2600:8800:784:8F00:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 03:37, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Part 1 Part 2 Huh?

Why does the 2019-2020 episode 'grid' have "Part 1" and "Part 2" in it especially since the episode numbering for the season is continued?

And there's no mention anywhere in the article of a "split" season.

Many other series have gone on different types of hiatuses during a season without their episode grids having "Part 1" and "Part 2."

So why here?

I think the "Part 1"/"Part 2" headings should be removed.

Thoughts, comments ?

Or am I missing something ? 2600:8800:784:8F00:C23F:D5FF:FEC4:D51D (talk) 21:52, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

The above is correct, although split seasons generally have a longer break TFC officially says that the season was split into two halves. TheDoctorWho (talk) 05:20, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

I think the part 1 and part 2 headings are signs showing that there is a continuation of the crossover episodes and what show part 2 will be taking place in

"Try watching the show"

"Instead of jumping into a pot full of conclusions"

Thats that✌

The part 1 and the part 2 headings shouldn't be removed "the headings stay"✌ Dubneg (talk) 00:23, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
