If you have yet to pick a costume for Halloween this weekend, then let me make a case for being Magnum PI. This costume is a winner! It's comfortable and easy to do. If you are going for the 80s retro-look, then this costume is for you. A lot of people dress up like Don Johnson in Miami Vice, and if I could be so bold to say -- that look is played out. The Magnum PI costume is way cooler and for one simple reason...the moustache. This costume is simple and affordable. Simply obtain the following items: large brown moustache (of mariachi band variety), Hawaiian shirt (top 5 buttons are optional), Detroit baseball cap, red Ferrari 308 (a toy version is permitted, if large scale version is not), and chest hair. Obtain those items and assemble at will for a top notch Magnum PI costume. Spooky Factor: 3, Ease/Comfort Factor: 7, Getting Laid Factor: 10!, Moustache Tickle Factor: 9 TV Halloween Costume of the Day: Magnum PI

I laughed when I saw the Magnum costume in Target because five years ago I made my own Magnum costume for my husband for a Halloween Party (we had to come dressed as a TV character). It was pretty simple -- Detroit Tigers hat, Hawaiian shirt, shorty shorts, and a gun (of course). My husband already had facial hair, so I just drew on really dark pointed eyebrows and he looked great.
