Continuity mistake: For the first episodes (minus the plot), the opening of the series features the Ferrari with two different license plates. The opening shot shows the ROBIN-1 vanity plate that is in every episode but not in the most well known version of the opening (with the iconic Mike Post theme music used in all the other seasons), and the following shows the license plate from the pilot.

1 continuity mistake in Season 1 generally
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.
