Magnum, P.I.

Beauty Knows No Pain - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: The morning after TC and Babs sealed the deal involving him, Magnum goes out for a swim. In the first shot, when he turns around to tell Babs that he's not doing her ridiculous knee to chest routine, the towel around his neck shows no half-squares. In the rest of the scene, the towel is folded so that there's half a square easily recognizable. (00:20:00)

Beauty Knows No Pain - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: Barbara Terranova is biking behind Magnum when the golden teeth man and his buddy stop her. She screams "Magnum!"; look at the sweatstain on his back. When a few moments later he runs in to beat up the aggressors, the stain got smaller, or rather, oddly narrower, not being as wide on the neck of the shirt as before. (00:23:00)

Beauty Knows No Pain - S1-E18

Continuity mistake: At the checkpoint after the swimming section, Magnum has to get out of the speedo and put on dry running shorts. He does so, but in the shot where Rick is powdering his feet and putting socks on him, he's still wearing the wet speedo. (00:39:40)

Of Sound Mind - S3-E12

Higgins: How fiendishly deceptive of you, Magnum. I could have sworn I was hearing the emasculation of a large rodent. To my great surprise, I see the sounds are emanating from what I thought was a harmless musical instrument.
Magnum: Cute Higgins, real cute.
Higgins: Why Magnum? Why do this terrible thing?
Magnum: Higgins, I'll have you know I used to be very good. I was the second best sax player in my High School band!
Higgins: Well, how many sax players were there?!
Magnum: ...Anyway. I just saw this in a pawn shop window and thought I'd like to try and get my chops back.
Higgins: May I suggest that your "chops" are irretrievable.
Magnum: Higgins, did you come here just to abuse me!?
