Magnum, P.I.

Memories Are Forever - S2-E5

Visible crew/equipment: For some reason, Higgins is quite defeated by Magnum reading the lie he obviously is willing to publish, and snarls "Name it" in response to his request for more of Mr. Masters' belongings. On the far end of the wall on the left side of the screen you can see the shadow of the boom mike move. (00:07:30)

Don't Say Goodbye - S1-E15

Visible crew/equipment: Magnum lost the car he was chasing. He comes across a police car and stops at the crossroads to avoid getting stuck giving too many explanations. The road is outside of town and kinda in the middle of nowhere, but in the side mirror there's a bunch of people watching the scene. (00:16:20)

Lest We Forget - S1-E10

Visible crew/equipment: Driving through an alley in present day jogs the memory of Judge Caine. On the right of the frame though (and left side of the Ferrari) you can see a contraption where the camera car for the fade-out shot is mounted. (00:24:55)

The Big Blow - S3-E21

Visible crew/equipment: When Higgins whispers to the dogs to 'Stay' after the ruthless home invader shot a hole in the barrel, in the close-up of the dogs you can see in the background a crew member in the upper right corner, by the broken barrel. (00:18:00)

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.
