Being of a older vintage l remember it well and l thought it was very good as Magnum and Higgins worked well off each other.
Praise due where it is due as the new Magnum is just as good as the original series.

Telly Savalas and Raymond Burr were always going to be a hard act to follow though but l certainly agree with the points you have made.
