It's from the same people that developed the 'new' Hawaii 5-0 and MacGyver.
While I suppose the 5-0 leads are comparable between series, Lucas Till is no
Richard Dean Anderson. (George Eads could be a Bruce McGill, but that's a
different debate.)
For whatever reason, and YMMV, those shows do better with casting the
supporting roles...until they can them in the most tone-deaf way imaginable.

I was trying to think of why this seemed a bad idea to me and I found this
Guardian article to put it into words. Magnum is a pretty dumb show but Tom
Selleck made it fun and watchable. There's no reason to think CBS will cast a
lead that will bring what he brought so all that leaves is a pretty dumb show.
