The thrilling Magnum P.I. aired its mid-season finale, and the stakes could not have been any higher. The explosive episode premiered on Sunday, April 23, at 9:00 pm ET. This modern take on the classic series has already garnered significant viewership and critical acclaim, and the previous few episodes have managed to accelerate the action that viewers find quite entertaining.
The episode, titled Charlie Foxtrot, saw the main characters in compromising positions. The mid-season finale came at the right time, given that the season is slated to comprise a total of 20 episodes.
Episode 10, which premiered on NBC and is available for streaming on Peacock, is replete with several action-packed sequences featuring Thomas Magnum (Jay Hernandez) and the people around him.
Magnum P.I. season 5 episode 10 promo: Spring finale of chaos
The short trailer for the latest episode did not shy away from revealing that this episode is likely going to be the most intense one in the season so far. This is not very surprising considering that this is meant to be an important landmark for the fifth season.
While the teaser saw a lot of action, even with Thomas involved, the synopsis did not explicitly mention Thomas Magnum. Instead, the synopsis shed light on the multiple other crises that plagued those around Thomas. The official synopsis for Magnum P.I. season 5, episode 10 reads:
"An armed hit team lays siege to Robin's Nest; TC is badly injured while Rick fights for his life."
The armed siege on Robin's nest took center stage in the spring finale as it contained all the action expected from one of the proper finales. Moreover, both TC (Stephen Hill) and Rick (Zachary Knighton) found themselves in life-threatening situations in the spring finale episode. With so much happening, Magnum also faced some exponentially steep drama.
The episode has been directed by Lisa Robinson, while David Wolkove has been credited with the screenplay. The series may take a hiatus after this episode.
