In celebration of the release of the crossover event of THIS century, we headed back to the last century to discuss the crossover event of the last century: When Jessica Fletcher took a Hawaiian vacation with Magnum, P.I.!
(Magnum, P.I. Season 7, Episode 9 "Novel Connection" and Murder, She Wrote Season 3, Episode 8 "Magnum on Ice")
Why does it take so long for Jessica Fletcher to show up? Why is there a ridiculous "B" plot in this Magnum Episode? How weird is it to see the syndication ending first? Is Jessica Fletcher a murderer? Can Magnum mansplain any more? (No). All this and more!

Tripp and Andrew Laino have been watching movies together since 1992, and making fun of them together since 1999, when a rainy afternoon of babysitting turned into 8 hours of cheesy science fiction and jokes. Raised on a strict diet of 80s movies, the pair have an undying love for the decade and all of the weird, wonderful cinema therein, despite barely being there for it. Every other week (since 2014) they dissect a movie and the bizarre cinema quirks of 30-odd years ago.
