Overview
Vétérans de la guerre du Viêt Nam, Thomas Magnum s'occupe de la sécurité du domaine d'Oahu, dans l'archipel d'Hawaii, propriété de l'écrivain Robin Masters. À la suite d'un pari perdu, l'auteur à succès lui laisse la jouissance des lieux ainsi que de sa Ferrari 308 GTS. Il devra partager le domaine avec Jonathan Quayle Higgins III, majordome britannique rigide, ancien soldat de l'armée des Indes, supportant mal la décontraction de Magnum et qui lui rendra la vie difficile avec ses deux dobermans, Zeus et Apollon. C'est un perpétuel choc culturel entre Magnum et lui. Magnum est désormais détective privé avec l'aide de ses deux amis, vétérans également, Terry « T.C » Calvin pilote d'hélicoptère, et Rick Wright, patron du « King Kamehameha Club » situé en bord de mer dont Robin Masters est également le propriétaire.

Magnum is the guy who everybody wants to be, and what every lady wants.
Magnum, P.I. is a feel good TV series everybody to enjoy.
And had it come out today, he'd be almost perfect, struggling never, with no character development. Stagnate, boring, with no growth to speak of. He'd be right all the time and end each episode political statement... like the New Magnum does.
Instead he was written in the 80s, and he is kind of a mooch, but a charismatic one. He struggles and overcomes, his relationship with his friends grows and evolves, and he deals with Vietnam and flashbacks in a realistic and functioning way.
He is capable of screwing up and fixing his mistakes. He is light and comical and void of an agenda. And he has friends that will unquestioningly follow him into a bar room brawl just because, well, that's what real friends do.
It makes everything fun and relatable, it makes the show more down to earth and realistic that it would have been in following decades. And that goes double when its a story that involves an expensive sports car... which, to make it believable, he doesn't own.
