This post was inspired by webbgirl's post asking Hawaii Five-0 fandom why so many fans hate Lori Weston's character. I got a bit long-winded in my answer and instead of just taking up all that room in her comments, that'd I'd just make a post of my own.

webbgirl essentially asks why so much fan hatred is being directed toward Lori as a female character and why ( Read more... )

I just checked the guide section of my tv -- and Hawaii 5-0 isn't on in Baltimore tonight, due to a Ravens football game!

No!

Must. Find. Ep. To. Download.

Now.

All right, I feel like I actually was watching Hawaii Five-0 last night! It was about the team, finally. It had Steve and Danny in not one but two cargument scenes and had them drawing their guns together and getting shot at together! And Steve yelling, "Danny! Danny!" It wasn't perfect, but it was so much better than the last two weeks!

( my thoughts on the ep )

Well, I wasn't thrilled with the last ep, so much that I didn't even bother writing about it here. I thought there was too much Joe, especially too much of him calling Steve "son" and not enough explanation of what Kono is doing.

Overall, I was very pleased with the first episode of season 2. It was exciting, involving and had enough angst and surprises. Plus, most important, it involved the team and their sense of family really well.

Season 2 of Hawaii 5-0 premiers tonight! I'm anxious to see it, hopeful, and planning on enjoying it. At least, we'll finally know what's going to work and what isn't. Or at least until next week when Lauren German's character is introduced.

Will post my opinion and thoughts on the ep later.

For now, enjoy!

I am just now reading an article that was linked to on hawaiifive_0_tv that has some spoilers and a line that reads like it has a missing word or two... but that sentence itself I consider a very good mistake.

( Spoilers this way... )

Well, last night was the episode where Danny was exposed to sarin (lol, I nearly typed "sauron") and Steve was all worried about him. Lord, that scene was just wonderful, the way Steve seemed to run at top speed to Danny's side, despite the fact that Danny was not that far away from him, the say he helped Danny out of his vest and looked at him in ( Read more... )

So I woke up this morning with the Military channel -- Navy SEAL Training episodes. I've seen this, or something similar, a while back, since it's somewhat similar to Ranger training. It is actual footage of the training that SEALs go through, rigorous, painful, cold, mentally challenging to become the best of the best. And the Steve McGarrett ( Read more... )
