Magnum P.I. Complete Seventh Season DVD Review (2007)

The fatigue of familiarity brings this seventh season down a notch from previous seasons, and one suspects that the episode “Autumn Warrior" isn't the series at its best.

Still, this season is an improvement over the sixth season, with the writing tighter and often wryly funny.

The series is carried by Tom Selleck's charm and, if you're old enough to remember the heat the series generated in the media when it ran, apparently by the man’s moustache.

Once again, Selleck's Thomas Magnum finds himself in more questionable situations, such as being shot in one episode and the celebration of his 40th birthday in another, with the give-and-take between him and his friend Higgins (John Hillerman) grounding the manufactured mayhem.

Grade: B-
