The Greatest Hawaiian Crime Fighter of All Time!!??

[StayBack500FT]

McGarrett or Magnum??? The most important question of all time...settled here, once and for all.

[StayBack500FT]

Exhibit A

[StayBack500FT]

Exhibit 2:

[PFire23]

Gotta be Magnum ....... MMMMMMhhhhmmmmmm

[StayBack500FT]

ROTFLMAO!!!

What, you don't find McGarrett hot???

[PFire23]

I'm offended that you would assume that looks are what I based my decision on !!!!!! :eek: :D :p

[StayBack500FT]

:D :D :D

[LadyCapn]

*****Heavy sigh******

Oh Magnum by a long shot. With those dimples he could fight my crime anytime :D

[PFire23]

Forget fighting crime ......

I've been a very naughty girl, I think a take down with a very long "frisking" is in order, perhaps even a strip/body cavity search .....

:D :D :D :D

[CALFFBOU]

ELVIS?

[ROOKIELZ]

No brainer...It's Magnum.
I suspect he would be able to get many females to confess to crimes they never committed. Some people will do anything for dimples and cuffs:rolleyes:

Come to think of it my husband has dimples and cuffs:eek: :o

[NJFFSA16]

Jack Lord 5
Tom Sellick 0

Jack Lord wins Five O!

[scfire86]

Thomas Magnum was a Navy SEAL. He could the hell out of anyone.

And the Ferrari was a nice touch. Even if it wasn't his.

[StayBack500FT]

***coffee spray on monitor***

LMAO!!!

So was Jesse Ventura...:D

Jack Lord, by a long shot. I can't believe there's even a question.



Andy

[tanker5117]

There is no real comparison. Jack Lord was a cop and T. Magnum was not. J.L. fought crime, T.M. drove around the island looking for women.

:D :D

[IACOJRev]

Book 'em, Danno!

[tk1918]

aaahhhhhh, Magnum! He's the winner for sure.

*** pant pant pant ***

[LadyCapn]

Can we add the other hot babe........errrrrrrrrrrrr.... . I mean great crime fighter Matt Houston as well? I know he was from Texas instead of Hawaii but.......:D

[dmleblanc]

C. Chin Ho :D

[CaptainS]

Magnum Rocks!

Look at the supporting cast Higgins, Rick, TC, Mack tightnit group.

But on a serious note it did adress the Nam Vets issues about PTSD and other topics.

[SafetyPro]

Both had a bad habit of being involved in car chases that mysteriously started on one island and ended on another. :D Must be those Hawaiian interstate highways. :D

[martinm]

Not going to comment on who was better, (looking). 5'O had better theme music though.

Murder one...***glare and pause***...two counts.

[Dave1983]

McGarrett or Magnum??? Come on, no contest.

McGarrett

Magnum wasnt even a cop. He was a pretty boy PI with a hot ride.

Next thing your going to tell me is Sonny Crocket was a better cop then Joe Friday:rolleyes: :D ;)


PS: 5-0, STILL the best TV show theme music EVER!!

Yeah, but the guy was only jaywalking, for cripe sakes!

Jimmy

[StayBack500FT]

He stepped on two ants in the crosswalk.

[JimMccarthy]

OK StayBack, Guess I missed the bodies in the cross walk.
Dump the Blackguard in the volcano for his crime!

Jimmy

[MOTOWN88]

Magnum!!!!!! I mean just check out the hat!!!! DETROIT TIGERS!!!!! The guy was a PIMP!!!!

[DaSharkie]

Tough choice. I see all the women are all hot and bothered over Tom Selleck though.

I think Magnum is pretty cool myself. He carried a 1911 .45 so that alone adds a lot of points.

Eh, I can't decide. I need to go study pediatrics. Please pray for me to pass tomorrow.

[NJFFSA16]

Let's throw in the cast of Hawaiian Eye which aired from 1959-1963. (Way before your time, I'm sure)

Robert Conrad as Tom Lopaka
Anthony Eisley as Tracy Steele (1959-1962)
Connie Stevens as Cricket Blake
Poncie Ponce as Kim 'Kazuo Kim' Quisado
Grant Williams as Greg MacKenzie (1960-1963)
Mel Prestige as Lt. Danny Quon (1960-1963)
Douglas Mossman as Marty (1959)/Moke (1960-1963)
Troy Donahue as Philip Barton (1962-1963)
Tina Cole as Sunny Day

[NJFFSA16]

Now THIS is a badge of a real Hawaiian hero! (And I've got an original from the show)

[mcaldwell]

What, Dog the Bounty Hunter didn't even make the list? :p :D

I'm not sure he could spell 'Hawaii'.:D

[StayBack500FT]

LMAO @ "Dog"



NJ - Amen, Brother!!!

[RspctFrmCalgary]

ROTFLMFAO! Jenn's 7 year old girl LOVES Dog the Bounty Hunter :D :D

I'm torn too, Magnum was pretty cool, but Hawaii Five-O is a classic!

As for panting over Tom Selleck .... not so much here. Handsome yes, drop dead gorgeous ... no. LOL :D ;) :p

[MIKEYLIKESIT]

He fought crime on the Island FULL TIME... None of that grass skirt chasing that Magnum was always up to. PLus Steve served in tne Navy too. In WWII THE BIG ONE

[DennisTheMenace]

Thomas Sullivan Magnum was far tougher and a much deeper character, but was not much of a crime fighter, more of a defender of honor and warrior against evil.

McGarrett was a cool cat, but never really learned what made him tick. Kind of a mysterious fellow, but put the bad guys away every week.

Magnum and the gang paid homage to McGarrett and the guys of Five-O a few times, but really got to say they were both great for their era's. And inspite of the multiple attempts at good Hawaii cop/crime fighting/baywatch shows since Magnum went off the air in 1988, no one has been able to even come close to matching either of these great haoles!

[StayBack500FT]

I know Magnum had the Ferrari, but does it get any cooler than this?? I mean c,mon...McGarrett didn't even have a dash light...he's like the "anti-whacker" incarnate.

[StayBack500FT]

Bonus feature:

Ladies...did Magnum have this in his corner?? I think not...:D

[DaSharkie]

That is who Chin Ho is. I got him confused with Wo Fat (the Chinese communist heathen bastard) but I knew that wasn't right.

[StayBack500FT]

Now you know your Ho.

[CaptainS]

Dont forget about the "Lads"

Ah, but to be a realt TV geek, you should know the name of "the Lads."

I loved Higgins. Well, not in that way you perves!

Zeus and Apollo.

What can I say? I watched a lot of TV waiting for bones to heal after a little spill.

[DaSharkie]

Excellent. You win the boobie prize. Not those boobie prizes :p .

But who is Mr. Masters?

[Ladder8]

Robin Masters (or to be exact, his voice) was Orson Welles.

:D

[Steamer]

Funny thing, the dogs' names were the only thing I could have told you about the show. The rest of the show is pretty much a blur.

[CaptainS]

Higgins was Robin Masters(in the show), no real proof though.

Anyway 5.0 didnt have a Helicopter, Magnum did or should I say t.c. did. You cant beat helicopters when cruising the"islands"

[RspctFrmCalgary]

I was wondering when someone would mention T.C. ..... and what about Rick, the lady killer? hehehe ;) :D

[CaptainMikey]

DOG the bountyhunter

[warsbc362]

Rick was the ladies man, but did you know his knickname ?

12 to 12...it's down to the wire!!!

[Weruj1]

you all for got about this kicka$$ mofo !

[alohajen73]

Clint Eastwood.. Good one!!
How about Bruce Lee? (not hawaiian) but still awesome

[Ladder8]

I really can't believe that you forgot these folks, most of whom are pictured below...

OK, except for Greg, Peter, and Bobby (but who really wants to look at the guys...)


Marsha...... >rawr..!<

[MIKEYLIKESIT]

Bruce Lee ? Clint Eastwood ? The Brady Bunch ? This thread is about HAWAIIAN CRIME FIGHTERS ...

[MIKEYLIKESIT]

Hows this for being "off topic" ?

[Ladder8]

Ahem...

From the Brady Bunch - 4th Season - Episodes 73-75 (1972)

73. "Hawaii Bound," 22 Sep 1972 [72]
The family vacations in Hawaii. Bobby finds a cursed tiki. Don Ho cameos with a serenade of "Sweet Someone" for Bobby and Cindy.

74. "Pass the Tabu," 29 Sep 1972 [73]
Greg is nearly obliterated in a surfing episode, supposedly because of the tiki. A tarantula crawls on Peter. Barry Williams was in fact injured filming this scene, and Susan Olsen almost drowned filming the boat scene.

75. "The Tiki Caves," 6 Oct 1972 [74]
Vincent Price plays a crazy archaeologist who takes the boys prisoner when they try to return the tiki to a burial ground in a remote area of Oahu.


Don't know about Clint, Bruce or Charo... but the Brady's did fight crime in Hawaii!


(see, you did forget....)

:)

I didn't forget, I just repressed the memories. Now I need to start counseling all over again.

Thanks.

[MIKEYLIKESIT]

To say that the Brady gang was fighting crime on their Oahu adventure is strrrrretching things a bit. Man we are talking REAL crime. McGarrett handled everything from dope slingers to cop killers to Chinese organized crime ...Not some little "tiki caper". Of course watching Alice try and do a hula dance WAS a crime.... AGAINST NATURE !
:eek:

[alohajen73]

So.... You want Crime Fighters in Hawaii? How about this bunch?

Cast: Michael Biehn, Sharif Atkins, Ivan Sergei, Eric Balfour, Aya Sumika, Carey Hiroyuki Tagawa, Peter Navy Tuiasosopo

From the show Hawaii. Short lived episode, none the less Crime fighters in Hawaii.

JOCOMANAWANALAYA You mean Orville?

[FF2BKE]

I'd say Magnum. The Ferrari, Scorpion chopper, and 1911 .45 are pretty cool crime fighting tools. And Magnum didn't have a dash light either! :D Danno always got on my nerves but so did Rick. And crime fighting, if only part-time, would be second only to part-time girl chasing. :D :D ;) ;)

[StayBack500FT]

OMG!!!!!!! HEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPP MMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! !!!!!


I have seen "Alice the Housekeeper" in a swimsuit!!


MY EYES...THEY BURN!!!!!!

[Pyro062005]

My votes for Magnum. Don't forget about Dog the Bounty Hunter.
