This advertisement for the Magnum, P.I. pilot,
“Don’t Eat the Snow in Hawaii” (air date, Dec. 11, 1980), appeared in the Davis
County Clipper (Utah) on Dec. 3, 1980. I’m not sure Magnum and Higgins
ever worked out their issues, but it was fun watching them try. |

“I Don’t Want to Look Macho,” by Arnold
Hano, appeared in the Dec. 27, 1980, issue of TV Guide. The series
premiered on Dec. 11, 1980 on CBS and so this interview hit print shortly
after the Magnum, P.I. pilot aired. It’s an entertaining read, that
discusses the changes Selleck wanted in the original script with a hint about
Glen A. Larson’s exit and Donald P. Bellisario’s entry. But why should I tell
you—read it below. [Click on the images for a bigger view] |

This nice profile of
Roger E. Mosley (1938 – 2022) appeared in the June 5, 1983, issue of the Salt
Lake Tribune. By every account I have read—and this piece continues that
trend—Mosley was a terrific guy. I know I liked his portrayal of Theodore
Calvin (T. C.) in the original Magnum, P.I. Click the image for a larger view. |
