Written to depress young men.
It seems that Bellisario writes mostly the same depressing and predictable story each time. Everything is contrived to kill women with dark hair and dark eyes. I don't know if he was jilted by too many brunettes as a kid, or if he's just into worship of Hitler and the Nazi ideology.
Either way, it makes for a depressing show for any young man. I watched about five of these shows, and it was always the same. He bent over backwards for the Nazi ideology, for whatever reason.
I can't remember all the Magnum episodes, but it seems that was pretty much the main weakness of the Magnum PI shows, too.
There's really no detective work to note, because he bangs us over the head with this ideology so much that you can't notice anything else. He just simply won't let you notice anything else. He's eaten up with it.
Any way, I guess the women like it, but men sure hate it.
