So two weeks ago, production ended a day early for the weekend due to an incoming hurricane.

So what? Production delays can be caused by any number of things: illness or unavailability of a major cast member, an industry strike, damage to sets from disaster or vandalism, inclement weather on location. It's not uncommon. It didn't delay production of this series. There won't be a gap in the broadcast schedule due to missing episodes or scrambling to complete episodes on time. Are we going to include a weather report for every production week? I question why a minor factoid like this belongs in an encyclopedia article.

Post/Carpenter theme

The original theme by Mike Post and Pete Carpenter would most likely used when the series premiered. --73.184.6.244 (talk) 01:06, 22 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

POW in Afghanistan?

Watching episode 1.1, Magnum's narration says he and his buddies all spent time as POWs in Afghanistan. I guess that may belong in the article, but wasn't Bowe Bergdahl the only GI to be held captive by the Taliban. The Taliban tortured him, so he wasn't held as a POW.

As of yet, there is no character expansion here. The above might belong in the Thomas Magnum article, but, even if added here, it's still considered dramatic license. — Wyliepedia @ 04:10, 26 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relevance

Questioning the relevance of this block from the Production section.

On Wednesday, August 22, 2018, with the anticipated landfall of Hurricane Lane, a Category 4 hurricane, in Hawaii CBS reported that they "were closely monitoring the situation" but that production would continue as planned.[1][2] The following day CBS temporarily shut down production of both Magnum P.I. and Hawaii Five-0 until further notice.[3][4]

So two weeks ago, production ended a day early for the weekend due to an incoming hurricane.

So what? Production delays can be caused by any number of things: illness or unavailability of a major cast member, an industry strike, damage to sets from disaster or vandalism, inclement weather on location. It's not uncommon. It didn't delay production of this series. There won't be a gap in the broadcast schedule due to missing episodes or scrambling to complete episodes on time. Are we going to include a weather report for every production week? I question why a minor factoid like this belongs in an encyclopedia article. Canonblack (talk) 13:43, 7 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
