"Actor Tom Selleck (inset), best known for his work on Magnum P.I., was featured on the October 1986 cover of Volleyball Monthly. Selleck played in a number of tournaments in the 1980s and was the honorary captain of the 1984 U.S. Men’s Olympic Team that won a gold medal."

Maybe Martha Jagger is of Rusyn ancestry?

Selleck was born in Detroit, Michigan to a Rusyn[1][2][3] father from Slovakia[4] Robert Selleck (died 2001) and Scottish American Martha Selleck. The family moved to Sherman Oaks when Tom was growing up. Tom's siblings include brother Robert (born 1944), brother Daniel (born 1950), and sister Martha. Selleck graduated from Grant High School, in 1962.[5]

I will not remove your position on his ancestry but lets see whether other users would find something else. -- Imbris (talk) 00:13, 16 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Magnum P.I. movie

"Selleck will not star in the upcoming Magnum P.I. film because he has been considered too old, but he may appear in a cameo role."

Where did this come from? There's no citation. Years ago I was watching an interview and he stated that he wouldn't be involved in any movie because the trend with old TV show remakes is just to make fun of the show. He was very proud of the fact that Magnum P.I. was the first thing to come out of Hollywood portraying Vietnam vets in a positive light and he had no interest in mocking that. I just wish I had something about that to cite so it could be included in the article. Wiki publius (talk) 14:23, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that at least one of the TV movies (Crossfire Trail) had an article but not a link so I created it, and also removed Meet the Robinsons from the TV list (but only after linking it did I realize it was in the wrong list.) and I suspect some more TV work has articles. Anyone care to check for more? How about red-linking some of the more important ones? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.119.62 (talk) 03:59, 24 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I finally got around to going through and as of 7/25/2009 I think they are all linked, but more articles could easily be created later and as with all lists like this, if the creators don't do google searches for all instances of the content on wikipedia, the links might be missed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.82.208 (talk) 14:21, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think Tom Selleck made a | Murial Cigar Commercial with Susan Anton —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.51.63.2 (talk) 20:00, 23 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wonderful man and Actor

Tom Selleck is a wonderful actor as well as a decent human being. My 41 year old late husband of 21 years was the spitting image of him. I am an active NRA advicate and when the "Rosie" situation hit my very lg family and I stopped shopping K-Mart due to fact she was spoke person for them, We still do not shop there. Their loss of millions literally. At the time we traveled well over 40 min away just not to shop kmart. Thankyou for years of entertainment, strong moral fiber and the resemblace of my late husband doesn't hurt either. I can project that he would age as well as u r , yet u r only a few years older than he.(^^^^) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.218.9.187 (talk) 22:46, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

star wars

Someone has inserted a star wars reference in the early life section and it needs to be removed —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.122.80.53 (talk) 16:18, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Utah horse ranching family is being harrassed by the Utah county sheriffs with numerous charges of livestock at large. There isn't any horses out when citations where issued. They are threatening to put ranch owner/opperator in prison for 900+ days and gather their horses, sell them and take away the families animal rights permanantly.

Edit request from 87.112.222.136, 20 April 2011

There's no citation to confirm he owns a house in the Shetland Islands. It was added by a user who seems to enjoy page vandalism. Also I live in Shetland and feel like I would know if it were true.

But more importantly there's no citation
