0:47 I used to live in Hawaii, and whenever someone was wearing a full suit, I'd always say "Someone is trying to put a square peg in a round hole here..." (Suits are considered out of place in Hawaii)
I use this song on my phone as my wake up alarm - today it went off in my pocket while I was brushing my teeth and for a brief moment I knew exactly how Tom Selleck feels in the morning.
Magnum was a bad ass what can I say. He had it all -- a kickass car and Hawaiian beachfront bachelor pad, a good friend TC with the helicopter and he got all of the chicks. He was also a Detroit Tigers' fan.
Somebody PLEASE explain to me WHY we cannot have theme tunes as good as this now? Magnum PI, Knight Rider, A-Team, Five 0 and the like all had tremendous themes. Not to mention all the great cartoon themes of the 70's - mid 90's.
Today, men on TV are wimps getting their asses kicked by tough women. TC rules and so does Higgins! Magnum's Ferrari is also what I think of even today when someone says "Ferrari".
Back when men had staches, kicked ass, drove cars, womanized, shot first and asked questions later....not this twilight airbrushed emo crap we have today.
I used to watch this and I remember my younger brother who was about five at the time wuld freak out when Tomm Sellick did that trick with his eyebrows.
@ProjectFlashlight612 He's continued to act, appearing in many TV series, including JAG, Quantum Leap, and Walker, Texas Ranger. He's also written a book about his time on Magnum P.I., called "Aloha Magnum". Notably, he, alongside Roger E. Mosley, appeared in an episode of Las Vegas during Tom Selleck's time on the show.
@almostunimportant Sadly the original Magnum P.I. Helicopter used in the filming crashed a few years ago. The story I always heard though, was that before filming the pilot, the casting crew had taken a ride around the island in the chopper, loved the idea and used it in the show. It was never repainted though, so it became something of an icon.
My very favorite show, I love every one of the characters,the special guests, the regulars, all of it. I'm hoping they put it back on the air cause it BLOWS AWAY any show that's on T V .
Hey, people I have a video you guys should check out Trust ME you WON'T REGRET A MINUTE OF WATCHING IT AT ALL IT'S EXCEPTIONAL!!! GO TO SEARCH HERE ON YOUTUBE ANF TYPE: NIKITA Pilot Clip The CW Network
Watch it trust you'll love it and not regret it at all. If you like it then the television show airs on Fridays at 8:00 P.M. on the CW. The show stars Hawaiian Native Maggie Q as the show's lead NIKITA!
Nice work. Click on my channel to see my 80's nostalgic collections; "80's TV Show Openings", "80's Saturday Morning Cartoons", "80's WWF Wrestling" and a "John Hughes Tribute"
@DrewM01 LOL - I can't take this theme seriously because all I can think about when I hear that song is "I'd like to see you try to walk a mile in my shit!"
It was watching this show that inspired me to wear a 'cookie duster' for 5 years..and my eye brows were constantly going up and down. But i never had the car..BUMMER.
I remember reading years ago that the ferrari is actually 3/4 size, so as to make selleck look too big for the car...I don't ever remember the top being on it. I don't think he could fit inside if it was.
@moh1612 like you having sex in ultra slow motion because otherwise you would be finnished long before the end of the song? or having the song play in ultra slow moion because otherwise it would finnish long before you?
@jb2134 Yeah, except the re-runs of these hit t.v. shows of the 80's, of course. Other than that, there's nothing on now but garbage (especially reality tv).
In the days of Magnum series usually were made because they ment to be cool and attrackt lot´s of viewers = cash. Today you see all sort of brainwash and conditioning movies and series to get you more used to police domination, big brother survillance ect.
A mustache grew up when i saw this video.
