Magnum, P.I.: Resolutions: Part II (1988)
Season 8, Episode 13
6/10
Unconvincing, disappointing
16 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The writers were in a hurry to complete the final episode of the series. They decided the easiest way was to tie up all loose ends for all the major characters. By attempting to do this, they created another disappointing and unconvincing conclusion to another long-running series. Suddenly Magnum is reunited with a long lost daughter, and she adapts to the situation like she moved across town. Despite contradictions in various earlier episodes of the series, Higgins claims to Magnum that, as Magnum suspected, he is Robin Masters. T.C.'s estranged wife shows up in Hawaii, and although it's been over eight years, she and T.C. immediately get back together like making up after an argument the prior day. Rick is tongue-tied saying his vows at his wedding -- yeah, sure. Although Magnum has just been reunited with his long lost daughter, he rejoins the Navy. I could have written a better, more convincing final episode.
