The new Magnum P.I.

[MacFromOK]

Maybe it's just me, but I'm not impressed.

Did I miss something?

I watched it and it was not bad.
I really hate commercials though.
There are a lot of old programs that I used to watch that i thought were good TV and one was MacGyver.
Watch the old ones today and You will see how far we have matured come.

I can't make it through an episode of that today ..and I am talking about the old ones. It sucks! But some reason years ago it did not suck so much.

It sucked. Buncha CGI fast and furious crap. Magnum was a more cerebral dude

Personally, I like a lot of the older shows. They were good and wholesome in my opinion without all the profanity that some today have. I know, cursing is quite common these days but that doesn't necessarily mean I want my grandchildren to hear it and mimic what they hear. Plus, where I worked for several decades there was very little cursing in the workplace. It's unnecessary and demeans the one using it and also the listeners. It's just my opinion, but out of respect, I never cursed in front of my mother and I don't like people to curse in front of my wife. I'm too old fashioned I guess and times have changed...

Pretty weak.

It was kind of meh. The problem is that they were trying to establish new old characters in too short of a timeframe; Don't Eat the Snow in Hawaii did the same thing, but they spread it across two hours. And I'm pretty sure they had more program and less commercial time back then.

I'm not really fond of them PC-ing it up by making Higgins a chick, or what they did to ROBIN-1, but I'll give it a go.

Profanity is nothing more than an excuse for poor writing. Plus, none of it makes any sense!

I also have not been impressed with their re-make of S.W.A.T. Shemar Moore overdoes it and makes the whole thing look like a joke.

You mean it's not a comedy?

I actually thought the first few were fairly good, but it went downhill pretty quick. Haven't watched S.W.A.T. in months now. :/
