The fifth season has been an action-packed affair—here's how you can catch up.
Season 5 of Magnum P.I. on NBC has been one for the books since its premiere in February 2023. We’ve seen our favorite “will-they-or-won’t-they” couple, Thomas Magnum (Jay Hernandez) and Juliet Higgins (Perdita Weeks), finally get together and also got to watch the unfolding of some action-packed private cases.
In an interview with NBC Insider, showrunner Eric Guggenheim gave us the inside details as to why he made the creative choice to make Magnum and Higgins official when he did.
“Heading into this season, we felt strongly that we had great stories," Guggenheim gushed. "Putting [Higgins and Magnum] together just gave us some great stories and great scenes that we wanted to explore. So we went forward with it."

Perdita Weeks and Guggenheim chatted about Magnum and Higgins' new relationship at NBC’s Television Critics Association panel in February 2023.
"The rest of the season is showing where that goes, with two people who are meant for each other, but then having to navigate working together and being in dangerous situations," Weeks revealed (according to TV Guide). "[Higgins is] somewhat highly strung, [and] I thought she might be more jealous than she is. They've been very generous with her, seeing her interact with other people. It's actually going quite well thus far, so we'll see. It's definitely fun."
