William Lucking guests stars as Sam Houston Hunter in this backdoor pilot episode, which I think is the only episode of Magnum, P. I. is a backdoor pilot episode. The pilot never got off the ground (hence the title of my review, Drop the pilot, get it, get it?) so yes, that's what happened. We don't see much of Magnum, Higgins and the rest of the Scooby Gang because the focus is on Texas and Sam Houston Hunter.
William Lucking looks a lot like Vic Morrow, and I remember first seeing William Lucking as Colonel Lynch in The A-Team. Coincidentally, William as replaced by Lance LeGault, who also appeared in Magnum.
