Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Factual error: Devon's password is his name spelled backwards, Nevod - but Windows (which he seems to be using, but in the day and age this show was made, it's pretty much a constant) has a minimum of 6 characters for a password. (00:19:00)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: In the hospital waiting room, Rick and Magnum answer in unison "Brooks" to TC. TC in that same shot lowers his hands, but they are up (so he can lower them) in the next close-up. (00:36:15)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: After discovering the body in the trunk, Magnum sets a meeting up with the bad guys. When they get out of the car, in the longshot the car and all the ground around it are in the sun; in the closer view the car casts a large shadow. (00:29:10)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Magnum told Bobby Malua about his brother and that he can't leave the island without first saving him. There's a close-up of him saying "Look..."; do look, and you can't Miss a big lock of hair across his bloodied eye. But in the next shot, it's gone. (00:14:50)

Episode #1.4 - S1-E4

DI Richard Poole: Yeah, I'm not a big fan of seafood, if I'm honest. Most of it has eyes. A bit disconcerting to eat something while it's staring back at you. (00:20:25)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Factual error: The lease contract that Magnum inspects puts the City of Haleiwa in the "County of Hawaii" in the State of Hawaii, but it's Honolulu county, not "Hawaii." (00:09:40)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: Magnum is getting the case from his new client. The man puts down his cup of shave ice which is full and puffy, raised about a inch above the brim of the cup. Less than 30 seconds later, he has not eaten a single scoop but the ice is well below the brim. (00:02:50)

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: When Magnum says "Let's get after it" only to be interrupted by Kumu shouting at him about the phone call, Higgins reaches for the goggles on top of her head; Thomas in another shot says "I'm sorry" and her hands are off the goggles, but in the following close-up on Perdita Weeks she has exactly a pose with hands on them.

Magnum P.I. (2018)

Die He Said - S1-E8

Continuity mistake: In the water at the beginning of the episode, Higgins mentions "the repeated use" of the laptop, and as she says that she pulls the snorkel behind her shoulder. When she is shown next, the snorkel is again in the front, and it appears on the back only a couple cuts later. (00:01:25)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Flashback - S3-E6

Revealing mistake: In present day, Magnum is flying with TC to the old house. Selleck and Roger Mosley are talking inside the vehicle about being there before, and TC's shirt is dark red. However in the wide shot of the landing, whoever is piloting the chopper is wearing a yellow shirt. (00:43:40)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Flashback - S3-E6

Factual error: Magnum gets to the airfield looking for TC the first time, at the very beginning of his drive you can see in the building in the background a modern window AC unit - that kind of device was available in 1936, but its cost certainly makes it unlikely, as it'd cost the equivalent of $8,000 today, not really something for the dingy shack it's mounted on. (00:16:55)

Magnum, P.I. (1980)

Flashback - S3-E6

Audio problem: Magnum slips into the car in 1936 with his client out of the club. If you pay attention to the audio, there is sometimes a droning noise as if someone were using a leaf blower nearby (it's actually because in editing they cut out all sounds below a certain level - but some of it spiked enough to stay into the audible range). (00:11:20)

Flashback - S3-E6

Continuity mistake: At the end of the episode, Rick's towel is draped over his neck in a different way before and after the cut to Thomas with the line "Don't start with that dreaming stuff." (00:46:50)
