Live from Berlin, here are Higgins and Barbel drinking beer. And having much discussion!

James Boldman

You must give me the name of your oculist. -{

VesperMelograno

I think you both have jaundice.

Barbel

Hey, that's one of the better things we've been told.

Higgins

Yes, the sight of a grown up man wearing a skirt in Berlin was quite embarrassing

I’d of thought they’d have gotten used to you by now.

Higgins

Barbel

Not so sure about the "grown up" bit!

Ornithologist

Prost! Did you order "Molle und Korn" to prepare for the assasination of a Soviet sniper?

Aw, man. Don't remind me of that terrible remake.

VesperMelograno

Dogs and a girl? Sounds ideal.

Higgins

You should watch the Reboot, it‘s great fun!

I‘ve said it in the off-topic:

Yes, there is tremendous negativity about the reboot.

Having always been a "half full glass" person ) , I see the flaws and realize, that we won't see Selleck and Hillerman back, but appreciate many small elements from the old show being still there.

But the discussion is a bit like a "There is no other Bond than Connery" - you get the point.

Having said that, I very much enjoy how they have outlined Juliet Higgins and her character development over the first episodes.
And she's smoking hot.

VesperMelograno

Really the LOL situation in this is your actual wife could be aTHE bond girl easily. Hopefully that is not out of line.

Higgins

Yes, but sadly I look nothing like James Bond

Barbel

Well, you are tall and dark so two out of three ain't bad....

Higgins

... and exactly how is that supposed to make me feel any better?

As you look at the screen - Barbel is definitely on the left. Even 7/2 on is a good bet!

Maybe I should give it another try then.
The original show is so close to my heart it will take a lot to view this as something separate.

Higgins

I am a longtime MPI fan as well.

The reboot will never be the same but I enjoy it as it is: a modern version of the old show and I am glad to see many elements from the original show respectfully put there.
Well, over at Magnum-Mania, the negative opinions are strong and it resembles me to the Daniel Craig discussions that we had before and during CR.

Hope that you'll enjoy it as much as I do

Charmed & Dangerous

Disappointed not to have seen any footwear in the photo, then we’d have known who is who for sure. Hope you gents had a great time and put the world to rights! -{

You're on a magnum pi forum as well, higgi baby?
I always loved Higgins long suffering female companion, Agatha. I always got the impression she loved him but it wasn't requited.

The name is HIGGINS X-( X-( X-(

As to your last sentence, you surely haven't seen "Echoes of the Mind" (series 5, episodes 1&2) with a very young Sharon Stone then.
One of my favorite episodes and the entire Higgins-Agatha relationship is well explained.

I like Agatha's character a lot and the development from an annoying fangirl to a very valued adviser and ally over the time.

Whenever I am on Hawaii, I love to visit Robin's nest and the tidal pool, besides that my favorite spot is Agatha's home which I have just revisited last October:






Her house is simply gorgeous and the neighborhood is phantastic, too.

Alas, no. Higgins suggested I try eisbein, but I'd eaten that (for the first time) a couple of days earlier so I had a gemischte wurst platter. And beer.
He ate humble pie and disclosed his deep Dalton devotion, admitting that his apparent hatred of the Timster was only a pose.

Edit: I have been asked to point out that one of the above sentences is a lie.

Actually I was the one wearing trainers (not green, though)!
Truthfully, we had a great time and are discussing doing it again.

Obviously you have gotten more drunk by the beers than I thought if that was your perception

And I suggested eating Haxe, Eisbein is the yucky cooked one
