Looks like the daughter version is out and they're giving it to the guy doing the new 5-0 and Macgyver

Serving in the navy isn't good enough this time, now he's a former seal :rolleyes.
Magnum always was an ex Seal.
My biggest problem is making Higgins a young, kick-ass, disgraced former agent.
I loved it...and this is coming from someone who hated the very idea of a reboot! It had enough of the original in it for me to relate. Now, the guy who plays Magnum, I'm not a huge fan, HOWEVER, during his narratives, he had the same cadence and "worn out" demeanor that Tom Selleck had in the original series. Plus, they kept the same color scheme of the helicopter that the original series had. I don't mind that Higgins is a woman.
All in all, as a huge fan that I am, and thought I would hate it, I was pleasantly surprised!
I don't mind Higgins being a woman, just her back story. This means no stories about her adventures unless the new Higgins starts telling stories that should probably be classified and just thinking about them should get her arrested on the Official Secrets Act. And more importantly the whole "Is Higgins really Robin Masters?" thing is out the window. I'm also not sure about new Rick. But I plan on giving it a couple more episodes like I did with Hawaii Five O.I loved it...and this is coming from someone who hated the very idea of a reboot!

Does the opening credits have him holding a woman in a bikini face down in the water and he stares at her behind and grins at the camera?
Nope!
