I think the "Higgins" character on Magnum PI was patterned after Don the Beachcomber. Both are from Texas (Don and the actor who plays Higgins), both lived in Hawaii and dressed in Kaki and had fake British accents.

Don the Beachcomber

Higgins

P.S. Both men are holding chickens in these pictures, coincicence I don't think so.
