Series Finale?
nightringer-768401 February 2020
Warning: Spoilers
From the ending, this would be a forced series finale, a bad karaoke song to end the new Magnum PI run. Since I have no idea if there is such news, this looks bad. The episode lacks likability, Jin (Bobby Lee) wasn't likable like before, rather annoying.

Too bad, the new Magnum has potential, but the characters didn't grow as much.

Perdita Weeks' Higgins character is probably the only that has a bigger growth and likability amongs all. From her acting, my bet she will land a better role fast after Magnum ended.

Of course, this is my suspiscion, after all.

Bobby Lee is the Weak Link Again
panzerstein1 February 2020
Bobby Lee, the 3rd rate comedian who used to be on MAD-TV back in the 1990s, guests on Magnum again. He plays Jin, the very annoying and needy criminal who keeps coming to Magnum for help. Jin also seems to be very attracted to Magnum, but then he also hits on Higgins. The ambiguous sexuality is kind of gross coming from a fat old guy.

Apparently, somebody on Magnum PI owes Bobby Lee a lot of favors, and they keep sticking him into Magnum. Bobby Lee creates a vacuum of death when he is on the show. He wants to be funny and charismatic, but he reminds me of Pee-Wee Herman (not in a good way).

As usual, Jay Hernandez is a blank slate. Either he knows the show is canceled, or he has given up on being any kind of actor. Fortunately, the interesting Perdita Weeks as Higgins, and Tim Kang as the police detective save this episode. Too bad that Magnum cannot be re-cast so the Tim Kang can take over the role. Kang can make a character real, and he is a hundred times better actor than wishy-washy Jay Hernandez.

Why Does It Take the HPD 8 minutes to reach a downtown building?
buddybradley-226653 March 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The fire alarm had already been going off for several minutes. Just asking. Is there only 1 cop in the city? Poorly logic in this one from front to back. Do they read the script before filming? If this wasn't intended to be the final episode, it should have been.
