Peter Campbell was better as a tennis pro than as a sleuth.

I picked Magnum, because it was on for so long and I've seen more of it than anything else. Sherlock is good but kind of in a different category to me.

Y'know, my wife misses things all the time, like that. Why, she'd miss her own left arm if it wasn't attached to her. But you know what I'm talkin' about, you being married, too, and all. Oh, one more thing, Mr. Peterson...why'd ya kill yer wife?

I went with Cumberbatch's Sherlock, although I almost went "other" for Geraldine McEwen's Marple.

Scooby and the gang, but if you're talking prime time, Magnum.

A Magnum appearance on the New Scooby-Doo Movies would've rocked.

It would have, wouldn't it? And they'd have gotten Tom Selleck to do his own voice, too!

Higgins is a better fit for Scooby-Doo than for Magnum P.I.
