Reminiscing about the 80’s! Thursday night was my favorite night of the week. First Magnum was on, then Simon & Simon followed by Knots Landing. Wish I could go back. Thanks for the video! Watching Magnum on TV right now.
I got a nice opportunity to meet Tom Selleck and John Hillerman in the winter of 1982 on the property that's next door to the left side of the Magnum PI driveway entrance where the big gate was. They were in that next door property filming "Foiled Again" where John Hillerman and Tom Selleck we're filming. I got to see TC's Volkswagen bus, the Ferrari some of the guest stars. Tom was pretty quiet, and John Hillerman was really a very sweet man, comes from Texas and has no English accent. We got to know one of the body guards and he gave us Magnum PI baseball caps and we had them autographed. Is such great memories
@@pjmiller8632 yes i undrestand you i am magnum fan also but that house is 90 years old small he could not only repair half house understand.inside new outside old.new owner want bigger house and lot of space Lot of memories😟but 2018 robin nest is destroyed i dont know how look like new robin nest now.
I'm still watching Magnum today it's still a great show. it's sad to think robin's nest is gone now. would love to have a swim or have a go on the surf ski to do some thinking :-) the tidal pool still looks great..
Thank You For The Video, I Appreciate It. The Tidal Pool Is Beautiful. One Of The Best Features Of The Property. I Was Shocked At The Disrepair Of The Property, They Should Have Been Ashamed If Themselves. It Is My Understanding It Was Native Owned Even Prior To The Filming Of Magnum PI. I Would Love To Have Seen A Video Tour Of The Inside. Let Me Know If You Find One. I Would Love To See It.
Thanks for posting. In addition to steady camera work while in the water, I so enjoyed the accompanying, soothing sound of the gentle water. One thing's abundantly clear: Magnum's swimming exercise could be done right here at Robin's Nest. However, every time he goes for a jog on a wide, sandy beach he's gotta hop in the Ferrari and take a bit of a drive to get to one. That I didn't figure on. Personally, I had driven by during previous trips to the Islands, but the property was not accessible to the public and out of view from the highway. So, this footage is welcome; and to most I'm sure. And even more so now that the edifice was razed in '18. I'm not so surprised that the previous owner(s) tired of the house and sold it, but that a deep-pocketed newcomer didn't step in and make it her/his playground and showplace for a few more years. This year (2019) I bought the early '80s' seasons 2 & 3 on DVD. Despite the frequent "whining" of Magnum, which seems a bit adolescent and annoying coming from a 38-year old man, the hours are usually enjoyable. I'll offer that if the show was set in L.A. or Miami Beach -- Denver, Chicago, New York, etc. for that matter -- it would not have been nearly as enjoyable and successful. Despite the considerable talents of the four leads, their immense, attractive co-star, Oahu, was a significant contributing draw. ed. Oh, the charming, relaxing wonders of the Aloha Spirit.
Business man Martin Nesbitt purchased it for the Obama's. Asking price was $20 million but got it for $8.2 million. The home structure was to unsafe to save, the sea salt destroyed everything because it wasn't cared for because the previous owner passed away. A lot of beautiful memories ❤️
Great video, thanks for sharing! I was there this past New Years and it looks like the gate and fencing has been changed since your visit. There's some video of it on my channel if you want to compare . . .
Yeah , it was really not in the beautiful state it once was. Since Ive made this video some other people have posted and I see they have put up a better fence and cleaned up a bit. Thats what memories and imagination are for I suppose :) I just tried to remember how it was . One old time local told me they would have trucks and trucks of landscaping plants delivered. We just did not realize all the tricks they were doing back in the 80s I guess. Hahahahaha
Such a shame to leave such an estate rot away as if it was a 1000 dollar shed. They could have at least let someone live in the guesthouse for free in change for maintenance of the entire propperty, and then it would have bin worth alot more than the 15 milion someone payed for it and torn it down. Hell, they even could have made a couple of milions when they would have made it a tourist attraction, but that's all to late now.
Mais pourquoi démolie? C’est incroyable! Quel déception 😞 on démolie toujours tout dans se monde, je ne sais pas grand chose sur cette villa mais j’avais lu qq part que cette villa a l’époque appartenait à une dame, à l’époque du tournage de la série, je suis tellement déçu de s’avoir qu’elle n’existe plus. Si quelqu’un peux m’en apprendre plus sur la démolition de la villa merci d’avance, je reste persuader qu’il y aurait eut une solution pour la faire revivre, mais ici bas tout est question d’argent et de destruction 😢je crois que de tout les fans de la série je suis la plus attristé, quel gâchis franchement
J'y suis allé en mai 2022 et j'y retournerais dans ce rêve Hawaii 5/0 magnum pi Il aurait fallu prendre la plaque interdit d'entrer 🐕 chiens 🐕 de garde en plus c'était celle de la série une pièce de collection 🎬🌴🇫🇷🇺🇲
I lived Honolulu for 19 years and have been to all the islands except for the 2 that are off limits.....I should have stopped there back in the day and swam there.....no longer gonna dry dat with da man living there now.....I did go to Waimanalo Beach dozens of times at the AFB there.....I am moving back in 24 to die there and I mean it in a good way....my HOME...
It’s odd how the houses were built so close to the water that stone walls were needed. Who not back up the property 50 ft so you can actually have a usable beach?
It should have been a shrine and would have been hugely successful. The idiots that are responsible for this are fools. They could have made tours available for pre-booking at the home-owner's convenience, such as they do in Europe. My guess is that a wealthy Chinese family likely bought this, and because they do not prefer nor respect historic homes in North America - they did not live here. Even after buying the home in great shape originally. They bided their time for years until they were able to secure U.S. citizenship, and then bulldozed this lovely home after allowing vandals to attack it for several years. This is what we commonly see being played out in every single neighbourhood now across both Canada and many areas of the U.S. It should not be permitted. These perfectly good and often historic homes should be cared for, kept up and not permitted to be destroyed - by anyone.
C'est la famille "Sanderson" qui a laissé cette propriété a l'abandon suite a une indivision , elle a été racheté par un riche homme d'affaire de Chicago qui a tout fait rasé tellement la maison était pourrie , aujourd'hui en 2022 la construction de nouveaux batiments bat son plein !
The home was owned for years by the eve anderson trust..she had been a local politician from a very Wealthy family..why no one lived their for decades ..is the burning question...

Thx for posting. This kind of stuff is fascinating. Rip john hillerman.
People just don't appreciate anything anymore. I would love to have something so awesome !
Love it, the dreams were cast by that beach house and that clubhouse, still with me today.
April 2018 , the house was torn down :(.. Im glad I made this video. I wish somebody would have filmed the inside of it...I suppose we will never know
The inside of the house was not laid out like the set on the show, but it can be seen in season one, and on the original Hawaii 5-0.
Looks like you're standing in the water while filming?
@@simona4315 Yes I was , in the tidal pool .
Thank u so much..I see u captures the balcony the brigadier was onin need to know as well....
@@Tsheppar78 fascinating incredible video...
Really too bad it couldn't have been in a better state of repair. That show was my favorite and this should have been a *SHRINE*
You said it. Such a shame it wasn't preserved.
yea fans always love old house but housw is too old they must renovated 90s years old house
@@master-kq3nw Renovate fine to keep up the original design integrity of the home.- which was gorgeous - but destroy - no.
@@pjmiller8632 yes i undrestand you i am magnum fan also but that house is 90 years old small he could not only repair half house understand.inside new outside old.new owner want bigger house and lot of space

Now all gone but the tidal pool☹️
Nicely done. Thank you! 0:20 :))
Fantastic! Thank you so much!

Hard to BELIEVE....they demolished it all...No structures remain....Sad ending
they must demolished beacuse it s too old mansion new owner want new robin nest
Man I would love to talk with you about your trip out there, what an adventure. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
Great video, thanks for sharing!
I was there this past New Years and it looks like the gate and fencing has been changed since your visit. There's some video of it on my channel if you want to compare . . .
Surprised the house looks abandoned. Too bad.
Yeah , it was really not in the beautiful state it once was. Since Ive made this video some other people have posted and I see they have put up a better fence and cleaned up a bit. Thats what memories and imagination are for I suppose :)
I just tried to remember how it was . One old time local told me they would have trucks and trucks of landscaping plants delivered. We just did not realize all the tricks they were doing back in the 80s I guess. Hahahahaha
Memories are forever...
Very sad to see it in such a bad condition and in another video even how it was demolished. What a shame!
Such a shame to leave such an estate rot away as if it was a 1000 dollar shed. They could have at least let someone live
in the guesthouse for free in change for maintenance of the entire propperty, and then it would have bin worth alot more
than the 15 milion someone payed for it and torn it down. Hell, they even could have made a couple of milions when they would have made it a tourist attraction, but that's all to late now.
looks like the Pacific Ocean came through the guest house....
Watching it right now.

Thanks for sharing, the hallmark channel is airing the original series now everyday, the new series does not hold up to the original....
excellent
Too bad someone could have bought it and kept it going. My favourite show on tv.
Watching Magnum right now. Wish I could go back in the 80’s & just stop time.
J'y suis allé en mai 2022 et j'y retournerais dans ce rêve Hawaii 5/0
magnum pi
Il aurait fallu prendre la plaque interdit d'entrer 🐕 chiens 🐕 de garde en plus c'était celle de la série une pièce de collection 🎬🌴🇫🇷🇺🇲
Nice
Sad to see it torn down. Wish I knew about it when I was over there.
Legendary robin nest🌊🏝 where is zeus and apollo🙂
No beach club anymore?
"Oh my God..."
Magnums age seems abit of a mystery..different contrary ages are given during the series...
They should have saved it
Warum hat man das Anwesen nicht erhalten? Es hat Filmgeschichte geschrieben. Als Pilgerort !? So ein Anwesen reißt man doch nicht ab !!!!
Genau
dommage une telle propriété pour terminer comme cela!!!!!
Where's the big square stone?
What’s the point of a tidal pool? Does it protect from rip currents and stuff like that?
Way back in the old days it was built to hold sea turtles. A Hawaiian King liked them as food. It was a type of cage so to speak.
I lived Honolulu for 19 years and have been to all the islands except for the 2 that are off limits.....I should have stopped there back in the day and swam there.....no longer gonna dry dat with da man living there now.....I did go to Waimanalo Beach dozens of times at the AFB there.....I am moving back in 24 to die there and I mean it in a good way....my HOME...
So nobody is even going to mention the sign saying private property GUARD DOGS ON DUTY?!
😮 I had not realised it until a french guy (like me 🇫🇷) mentionned it actually belonged to the filming ?!?! 🫠
Oh man this is so sad.
It’s odd how the houses were built so close to the water that stone walls were needed. Who not back up the property 50 ft so you can actually have a usable beach?
It's a sea wall...mandatory in Hawaii.. because of erosion..the original house is actually a good walk to the water and beach...
NOT like that anymore since BO and NESBITTS have bought the land and are having a compound built there.
NON C'È PIÙ SU GOOGLE MAPS 😭😭😭
I'm surprised nobody wanted to buy magnum p I house so sad
The place has really gone to crap since Higgins passed.
That is so fucking cool.

Badly overgrown...unfortunate..
It was a toy for the rich people. Like a child, when they get bored of it, they throw it away or destroy it. Disgusting.
No it got sold to Martin Nesbitt a friend of Obama , he destroyed it.
@@Gieszkanne Tearing down/destruction is a theme with obamas and their associates.
Yep, that's Obama care for you.
House torndown for a Obama buddy.
Martin Nesbitt
There goes the neighborhood.
