As the second season of Magnum P.I. approaches, we cannot wait to see what else is in store for our favorite investigator. We are planning to watch the show online, and we invite you to the very same thing.

The first time the new Magnum T.V. show aired was back in September 2018, so the show is only on its second season. Of course, we shouldn't forget that the new Magnum P.I. show is actually based on the 1980 crime-drama series with the same name, featuring Tom Selleck.

This time around, in the role of Magnum we have Jay Hernandez, whom you may know from movies like Bad Moms, Suicide Squad, Crazy/Beautiful, and Hostel, to name a few. The show got renewed back in January before the first season even ended, so people got rightfully excited about the prospect of watching yet another action-filled season with the private investigator.

When and Where to Watch Magnum P.I.?

The new season of Magnum P.I. is scheduled to premiere on CBS on September 27th, 2019, so there's not much time left to wait before we get to see what new adventures the detective is part of. The first season featured 20 episodes so expect to see the same in the second one, as well.

How Can I Live Stream Magnum P.I.?

How Can I Watch Magnum P.I. Outside of the United States?

Live TV platforms and services are awesome because they give you so much freedom. The problem is that they also have to respect licensing deals, which means that you won't be able to watch your shows when you travel outside of the United States, simply because your access will get blocked. CBS All Access, fuboTV, and any other have the very same problem. The great thing is that there is an easy solution, namely using VPN to change your IP address and trick the site into thinking you're still in the United States. On TechNadu we only recommend the best, so our suggestion is that you go for ExpressVPN, which is easily one of the best on the market, with servers across the world and tight security and privacy features.

Here's what you need to do to bypass the geo-blockade and enjoy watching Magnum P.I. anywhere in the world:

Can I Watch Magnum P.I. on the CBS Website?

Unfortunately for you, there is no longer a live stream on the CBS website. Ever since the CBS All Access platform has been launched, they moved quite a bit of the function from the website to the streaming service. Therefore, if you want to access a live stream of CBS, your best bet is either subscribing to CBS All Access or watching through Hulu or fuboTV. (Note: CBS is a channel that is only available in select markets so if you live in a city that does not get coverage, you can use the VPN to connect to a server located in a different city, where CBS is available. Click here to learn how to do this.)

Can I Watch Magnum P.I. with a TV Antenna?

Yes, because CBS is a channel that continues to broadcast over-the-air. Therefore, you can use a TV antenna to watch anything that is broadcast locally on CBS. Antennas are particularly popular with cord-cutters because they are cheap to purchase and they will allow you to watch dozens of TV channels for free.

Before you make any purchases, we suggest you visit a site such as NoCable, which can give you a full list of channels that are available to watch over-the-air in your specific location. It will also tell you how strong the broadcast signal is, so you can figure out exactly what range you should look for in a device. We have already given you some suggestions, which are all great devices, but you can do your own research if you want even more options.

Can I Binge-Watch Magnum P.I.?

Yes, that is something that you will be able to do because all the episodes from the first season of Magnum P.I. are available to stream on CBS All Access.

Can I Purchase Magnum P.I.?

You most certainly can do that because of all the Magnum P.I. episodes from the first season are available to purchase from Google Play, YouTube, Amazon Prime, iTunes, Microsoft Store, or Vudu. Episodes from the new season with also get added after they have aired. Make sure to check all the links before making any purchase, because these services may offer temporary deals for the content you want to purchase.
