rom John Rogers and Eva Longoria, the sequel series will follow “Magnum’s daughter, Lily “Tommy†Magnum, who returns to Hawaii to take up the mantle of her father’s PI firm. She and her tribe of friends mix tropical beaches with the seedy underbelly of international crime and modern espionage, even as she tries to unravel the mystery of the blown spy operation that ended her career in Navy intelligence.â€

Out of my love for the first seven seasons and the cliff-hanger ending that gave me an 8th....I am willing to give it a view.

But here's the deal....If Tom Selleck isn't going to be a regular, why in the hell does it have to be a spinoff. A good TV Detective show set in Hawaii should be enough to attract viewers. My fear is the whole spin-off thing is just a grab to try and get folks that loved the old show to watch something completely different that doesn't capture the spirit of the original...which is what I'm kinda expecting.

What we really need is an original detective show set in North Platte, Nebraska. Why??? Because at least the location will be different. That might be one of the driving factor behind my love of Longmire (the others being the actors and the story.)

Hawaii + Eva = Bikini shots

That might make a nice photo, but to be honest...I'm not really sold on that...she doesn't do much for me.

I seriously doubt that premise can sustain a TV show and hope to the flying spaghetti monster that there will be more to it than that.
