I've tried to watch some of 'em since then, and holy crap but they're awful.
It's funny, because I *did* catch a lot of Magnum, P.I., but that was in syndication when I was in school. It was cheesy, but it was kinda fun, too.
'Course, now they're in development for a Magnum feature film. Wonder who's going to play Thomas? What about Rick and TC? Higgins? I'm sure there will be tons of cameos from the show...

While these guys were yapping about those cheezy shows, I was thinking Magnum. Ving Rhames or Michael Duncan Clarke could do TC. Ryan Seacrest could do Rick. Bernard Hill for Thomas. How about Matthew McConnehy (sp?) for Magnum? Not as cool as Selleck, but he could pull it off.

I don't think it's out of the question that Selleck could still do Magnum - it has a lot to do with what kind of movie they want to do. As for McConnaughey (I think that's the right sp)...Good God, man! Selleck brought some of that ass-kickin'-humble-guy vibe to the roll, a la Harrison Ford. Matthew "Shirtless" McConaughey couldn't pull that off at gun-point. UNLESS...it were some kind of origins story, in which case McConnaughey might work, depending on what kind of past Magnum is supposed to have. For the title role...honestly, I got nuthin. But make Matty-boy the villain...or a pool boy (tailor the role to his shirt-doffing inclinations)...or see how he does with the "Icepick" role.

Why not Nathan Fillion as Magnum? He's got gravitas, he's got snark; all he needs is the mustache!

Wans't Magnum gettin beat up a bit? He wasn't a wimp, but he got the short end of the deal often enough - realistic enough like Rockford, as well.
I can't think of many of today's prettyboy actors who aren't covered in tats, coked up, or got a corncob up their behind. Is Keanu suave enough?
