Tom Selleck and his moustache are back in Magnum P.I.: The Complete First Season DVD from Universal Home Video. Packed with 22 episodes, this set has all the Hawaiian goods that you've come to love from the comedic action series. From the original episodes' synth theme and opening all the way until Mike Post came along with his famous wailing guitar number, there's plenty of surprises waiting to erupt from this release. Sadly, very little extras are included, though the set does come with some nifty packaging complete with puffy lettering, if that counts for anything. Bonus episodes include a two-part story arc that concludes with a Simon & Simon episode and another pair of Magnum episodes starring a then-unknown Sharon Stone. The picture comes with a standard full-frame image and Dolby Digital Stereo sound that should successfully preserve the show for future generations of Thomas Magnum fans years down the road.
I only got two seasons of this to start, because I wasn't sure if I'd like it. But, it has really grown on me and I'm excited to watch all of them now. The plots are original and fun. The acting is pretty good and there's a great chemistry amongst the cast. Just a fun show!
What's great about it: Hawaii, Tom Selleck, Fun Plots
What's not so great: Sometimes slightly campy humor
I would recommend this to a friend!

This movie starts out at one of Prince's shows that was taped live and it is ELECTRIC!!! The plot's a basic summation of Prince's life and average band shenanigans. The soundtrack is epic and every song is awesome and performed well. On the extras you learn that a lot of the songs were written in a day or two and recorded by Prince himself. Just a cool movie!
What's great about it: Like seeing Prince live, without paying 175 for the nosebleed tickets.
Record true-to-life audio with this microphone that is designed for recording vocals, drums, guitars, piano, brass, woodwinds and more. The Focus Control offers a normal mode for increased low-frequency sensitivity and a focus mode for improved clarity.
I have had a few of these mics and I do like the way they sound, but they are poorly built. You may ask yourself, a few of them? I had one grill pop off and saw that it was just glued into place on the face of the capsule... One fried my pre amp because it had a grounded phantom power wire... But, third times a charm! If I have any more problems, I will not be replacing it. If you get one that made it through the plant with everything in place, then you got a good one, and it is a great sounding mic!
What's great about it: Sounds great, cool style, great sound for the price
What's not so great: Poor build quaility, difficult to use shockmount
