They tapped a big Fast & Furious (he directed 4 of them) director, Justin Lin, and you can tell in the driving sequences.

Disagree. There are a ton of shows out there, old reboots like this one once in a while, with a bunch of new ideas. There are so many TV shows on these days, you can't keep up, seriously that many. Amazon, HBO, USA, Showtime, Netflix, {ABC, CBS, NBC, historically still there too}, History Channel buys one once in a while, Fox, just to name a few.

Selleck only has a net worth on just under $50m. He's ok.
The new Magnum is typical Hollywood political Left with and Hispanic Magnum and female Higgins.
The show will probably fail as it's just not the Magnum PI series chemistry of the original.

Some years ago, I read an article about a company in the UK that rents out fancy cars, and they said the 308s were among the most reliable they had, and--as fancy sports cars go--cheap to service. Yeah, you need to take the engine out for some of the regular servicing, but apparently the mechanics were so used to it that they could do it pretty quickly.
