I saw previews of the new show and give this version of the original series maybe one season before it goes belly up. The cast is not even close to the origal idea, specially casting Higgins as a female, really?
I followed Magnum PI from the first to the last show in the late 80's and was not impressed by this "new" version. I found the original series to be entertaining and placing attention on the Viet Nam veterans since TM had been a SEAL himself during that war. "Did You See the Sunrise" is my favorite episode showing TM dealing with Ivan in the best possible way. Justice took a while but it finally came for Ivan.

The 'new' Hawaii Five O is another one I saw and one episode did it for me. What's next, an I love Lucy reboot? Hollywood is lacking some serius amounts of imagination.
