It's funny to see episodes of "Magnum, P.I." now with him wearing those short-shorts! ;-)Susan McBridehttp://SusanMcBride.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-30079705088240273812010-11-15T13:39:33.038-05:002010-11-15T13:39:33.038-05:00And PS Tom Selleck is awesome.And PS Tom Selleck is awesome.Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287040994749326468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-18243856556626692532010-11-15T13:39:17.470-05:002010-11-15T13:39:17.470-05:00My brother and I once had this conversation about ...My brother and I once had this conversation about a movie (not starring Tom Selleck).<br />Me: This movie is terrible.<br />Brother: No, it's funny.<br />Me: But it's not a comedy.<br />Brother: Yeah, it is. It's hilarious.<br />Me: No, I think they're serious about the whole... flying motorcycle, indian ghost, two girls and everything.<br />Pause.<br />Brother: But if they're serious, then it would be a terrible movie... <br /><br />Sometimes it's all about your perceptions. My brother is still ticked that I ruined his movie.Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05287040994749326468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-84581624031985261212010-11-15T09:39:01.322-05:002010-11-15T09:39:01.322-05:00I haven't watched Blue Bloods but I love the J...I haven't watched Blue Bloods but I love the Jesse Stone movies. Then again, I'm a big Tom Selleck fan so maybe that has something to do with it? I don't know--I do like the pacing of the Stone movies and the fact that the characters don't fall into stereotypical roles. And a little of his backstory helps. So, yes, it's the writing for me.

But I loved Tom Selleck in the Magnum PI show - his sense of humor and his looks made the writing even better. I also liked him in the last season of Vegas - too bad the writer strike ended the show - there was much more story to be told there. The best scenario, I think, is a combination of good writing and the actors playing the parts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
