Plot hole: With the murder happening literally on tape, it's quite extraordinary and inexplicable that the police did not acquire the footage as evidence, especially with film buff Lieutenant Tanaka investigating, who is not fooled by the culprit's act. The footage would have been used for insurance reasons as well, and instead it is reduced to some novelty everyone checks out just to fight boredom on an evening at the estate.
Magnum, P.I. (1980)
1 plot hole in Double Jeopardy
Starring: Tom Selleck, Roger E. Mosley, John Hillerman, Larry Manetti
Other mistake: With power out Magnum somehow lights the gas stove with the knob, which is electric. Should have used a match. (00:26:40)
Mac: Time has little to do with infinity and jelly donuts.
