Yes. Mr. Hillerman is a fine fine actor. He played an outstanding role in Magnum, P.I. And other works, I'm sure. Handsome, too!

jekuper2010jekuper2010Mar 13, 2011

Great on Magnum P.I.

PRFMar 18, 2010

I sent Mr. Hillerman a letter (He lives about eight miles from me) offering him a role in a film I was working on in 2007 being filmed in Texas. He called and declined. He stated that he has retired and he does not do cameos.

He is a great actor, very charismatic. Where are you John Hillerman? We would love to see you.

GEORGE MORGANAug 10, 2009

GREAT ACTING...I ALWAYS ENJOYED WATCHING... I ALSO ENJOYED THE HEART TO HEART SHOW JOHN WAS ON...

Robert LovellAug 4, 2009

Loved his show but Tom Sellick (Magnum) starred in a few las Vegas Episodes with Larry Manetti andRoger E. Mosley. But no appeared, Why?John Hillerman

Jeff SnyderMar 29, 2009

I always thought that John Hillerman`s portrayal of Higgins in Magnum was the hilight of the show. Now knowing that he is a Texan and NOT British, it makes his performances even better. A genius!
