    I have that starting music on my Spotify play list. Along with Knight Rider, the A Team and Mask.

    I remember watching Magnum for the first time when sleeping over at a mates place. His dad was a huge fan. Was hooked after that. Farking loved that show.

    Saw it years later and marvelled at how perfect that life would be. Tom Selleck, living in luxury in Paradise, solving crime and banging hotties while driving a Ferrari.

    @mn5 I am PI. It's irrefutable. Plus, my top lip probably outdoes Magnum to be fair.

    Who?

    Edit: just googled. Had never heard of this person before and by the sounds of it I won't be rushing to listen to what I may have missed.

    I can't like that. Only a couple of weeks after the death of his older brother George.

    Don't worry, I'm pretty sure Quentin won't leave her out of the movie.

    Guilty, sure. He was never going to get a death penalty conviction. The ideas were all his, certainly. But he wasn't at the scene of the crimes, let alone pulled a trigger or stabbed anybody. He was a psychopathic leader of psychopathic followers. KInda like a mob boss.

    He did get convicted and sentenced to death. He was lucky with his timing...

    On January 25, 1971, Manson was convicted of first-degree murder for directing the deaths of the Tate/LaBianca victims. He was sentenced to death, but this was automatically commuted to life in prison after California's Supreme Court invalidated all death sentences prior to 1972.

    Cali dropped death penalty, but it got re-instated. It would have been a continual appeals process. He ordered the hits, but he didn't execute them. He was hearing voices. Okay - Beatles records. A psychopath hearing voices who tells other psychos to conduct murder -- they would have to have subpoenaed John Lennon before putting Charlie in an ele ctric chair.

    Glad he didn't get the death penalty. 35 odd years of worthless, pointless living, instead of 18 months.

    if he got the death penalty I doubt very few people would still be talking about him today, as it is, his death was one of the stories in the news headlines on TV and articles on our 'news' online as well.

    His infamy lives on, which is what someone like him wants.

    No mention yet of David 'I think I love you' Cassidy passing on?

    The guy may have made shite music but in his day he got to screw whoever he wanted (and not in a Weinstein way)
