Magnum P.I. (2018)

The series includes a recurring supporting character, Beth Katsumoto, in a normalized and positively depicted same-sex relationship. This portrayal is integrated without fanfare or judgment, affirming LGBTQ+ identity through its casual acceptance and dignity, contributing to a net positive impact.

The show features Juliet Higgins, a former MI6 agent, who frequently engages in and wins close-quarters physical fights against male opponents using her extensive martial arts training.

The character of Jonathan Higgins, originally a male character in the 1980s series, is reimagined as Juliet Higgins, a female character, in the 2018 reboot. This constitutes a clear gender swap.

The character of Thomas Magnum, originally portrayed by a white actor and widely established as white in the prior series, is portrayed by Jay Hernandez, an actor of Mexican-American descent, in the 2018 reboot. This change in the lead character's racial portrayal constitutes a race swap.
