Magnum P.I. is streaming in Japan on Hulu, U-NEXT.
What the audience says
Magnum P.I. rates well above most English series. It holds a 7.5/10 on TMDB from 350 ratings, well above what most films manage.
Is it worth starting?
This is 5 seasons deep — English action & adventure with a drama streak. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.
- Why
- Currently 7.5/10 from 350 ratings, which is a good sign this early.
- Skip if
- a backlog this size is the opposite of what you're after
- Best for
- A proper binge, once you've got the weeks for it
