Interesting. TC directs!

I am only writing a review to counteract the other one review. This isn't a classic flashback episode like when a TV show compiles flashback episodes because they've run out of ideas and scripts. These flashbacks have him helping out his first client and why he prefers private investigator to PI. It also shows how he turned to Rick and TC to help him out. It has a couple of interesting twists and a very good job by Roger Mosley as a director.

Directed by Roger E. Mosley

Warning: Spoilers
This episode of Magnum, P. I., was directed by Roger E. Mosley, who is one of the quartet of stars in the series. Roger E. Mosley does a pretty decent job, and it's a shame he didn't direct any more episodes of Magnum, P. I. Here this is a flashback episode and you kind of feel the late 70s feel which is quite quaint and charming.

I love the scenery around Hawaii as portrayed in Magnum, P. I., rarely does it rain in the series but I guess that's a bit of idealism I guess for you..

I like how Roger E. Mosley directs himself in this series, as I wonder how actor-directors pull off such a feat.

flashback ep's are dangerous
MiketheWhistle15 February 2020
Whenever an established show does flashbacks they can be frought with danger and this one failed. The guest actress was good (remember her from St. Elsewhere), but even she couldn't save this ep. It's a shame.
