I hated that back then, and I could not sit through it again.

Agreed that those aspect of old broadcast television are tedious now and difficult to sit through. Some of the Magnum episodes are great, others not so much.
The opening 15-20 minutes of the series pilot I could watch over and over again. It really established the relationship between the three main characters, Higgins, Magnum, and the 308.
