Quoted from CrazyLevi:

It's really not.
James Bond as a woman might be weird. 007 as a woman wouldn't be.
This stuff is only weird if you want it to be. Why couldn't Dr. Who be a woman? He's already been an old man...a middle aged man...a young man...seems like the Doctor can be whatever.
You guys have to get over this stuff. Life goes on man.

Quoted from o-din:

Didn't care much for the original Magnum at all, but it seemed like women liked it. It was like they were trying to combine Mannix and Hawaii 5-0, but like most prime time in the 80s, it had no edge to it and came up short.
So what you've got now seems like another reboot geared toward a generation that is overall not very creative or open minded and like to live in the past, no matter how lame the results.
That being said, I flipped by it, saw him driving the car, and quickly found something better, newer, and more original to watch.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

The Rock is pretty light-skinned, does that count for anything as far as quelling the outrage over the portrayal of a character called Chris Vaughn in the movie Walking Tall?

Quoted from zr11990:

I watched this show last night and I fell asleep during it. I was disappointed that for PC sake they made Higgins a woman, a ugly shrewish woman, and made Magpi himself not a white guy as he was in the original show. Wouldn't give a shit if the original character wasn't a white guy but he was. I tried to watch it anyway but found my old ass waking up on the couch two hours after they destroyed the first Ferrari. The show was that boring.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Higgins was WAY hotter when I was a kid!!!
