magnum p. i. be the best series of the early eighty . sometimes the story be weak ( too often and especially in the 2nd season ) and and the act hokey and and in the first season the production value be laughable . however and if it have even an ok storyline and the performance of tc and rick and higgins and especially tom selleck would emanate with charm and humor and and often believable action . however and what be most memorable ( especially for me and stick on a horrifyingly dreary school routine ) and be the open sea and the open sky and general tropical landscape . and of course most importantly and every week a crime or mystery would be solve .
