Hawaii Five-O

[Deleted]

So who is watching this? I am really digging it so far. Plus, we were just in Hawaii last month and I have been looking for familiar locations. While we were there the local Honolulu paper advertised that the show was looking for extras.

I think Scott Caan is cute.

I think the show has potential. The pilot dragged at times but I expect that from pilots since they are trying to shove as much information in as possible.

So far, I like Scott Caan's character best. Jin and Boomer (sorry they will always be Jin and Boomer to me) were not onscreen long enough for me to really form an opinion. O'Loughlin's character is more than a bit self-righteous so I was happy when Caan's character punched him. To his credit, O'Loughlin did seem to know he deserved it.

I think Scott Caan is really cute but he plays the same character. I'll probably just watch this if nothing else is on.

I thought it was very fun to watch. I loooooove Alex O. mwah.

I thought the pilot was awful. Still, I like DDK and I live in Hawaii, so I feel obligated to watch. And I hear Masi Oka is coming onboard in episode 4 as the coroner.

Every time Alex O'Loughlin gets cast in anything, I wonder what Leeser and her friends think of it.

Haven't you heard? A punch in the face is the new "aloha"--it means "hello," "goodbye," and "love." And "apologize for getting me shot, jerk" and "don't cut in on my wave, asshole."

ETA: BoroKat, I grew up on the Big Island and currently live on Oahu. Glad you liked it here!

Sumire, I did not know you lived in Hawaii! Which island? We were in Oahu in August and it was just beautiful. Lucky you.

Alex O was not doing it for me, too stiff. Pretty, but stiff. Do love me some Daniel Dae Kim, though! I thought that the pilot looked like a Jerry Bruckheimer movie. Is he involved in this?

[cyclonevkc]

I watched this for DDK and Hawaii. I'd never seen Alex O'Loughlin in anything, and DAMN! He brings the pretty.

I had expected the usual tongue-in-cheek cheesiness but was pleasantly surprised with the above-TV-average action sequences.

And I had read this:

as, "Pretty stiff." Juvenile me thought, "I hope so!"

So, by not seeing Spike (James Marsters) actually die (he went into the water), did they set him up as a reoccurring character?

Yes.

I've loved Alex since Moonlight and was so mad when they took that off the air. That show was so cheesy great!
