Magnum, P.I.

Billy Joe Bob - S2-E1

Character mistake: Magnum and Billy Joe Bob face one of Ito's goons. The guy is supposed to be competent with nunchakus, but he simply waves it around with no skill and in the close-up of his warrior yell, he strikes a pose with it but you can see at the bottom of the frame he misses the catch and does not grab the other stick. Obviously the extra was hired simply because of the looks and ethnicity but had never used this goon's supposed weapon of choice before. (00:24:55)

Billy Joe Bob - S2-E1

Character mistake: When Magnum parks the car in front of the Kahala Towers, the word "parks" has to be used very loosely; the car stops on the left side and at little distance from another car on the right, effectively blocking the whole road. And that is in a moment of total quiet, not rushing out of the car to save a baby or something like that. Whoever parks their car like that deserves to be shot on sight. (00:12:10)

Almost Home - S3-E10

Magnum: I could appeal to his heart.
Lieutenant Maggie Poole: Yeah. And his stomach.
Magnum: Oh, come on! That food stuff, that was just an excuse. Listen, underneath that stomach was a heart as big as...that stomach.
