Hawaii Five-0

Even though it was probably time for Hawaii Five-0 to end I'm still going to miss it. I really enjoyed tuning in to this show for this last ten years. Alex O'Loughlin and Scott Caan lead a great cast that also includes Daniel Dae Kim, Grace Park, Chi McBride, Jorge Garcia, Ian Anthony Dale, Beulah Koale, Meaghan Rath, Katrina Law, Michelle Borth and many more. This show has enough action, drama and comedy to keep any fan satisfied. Besides the acting and writing the visuals are also beautiful. It really goes out of its way to show you how beautiful Hawaii is. This isn't a show that requires a lot of your attention either, you can do other things while this is on and still follow the plot. If you're looking for a fun show to watch on Friday Nights then this is it.

I LOVE this show, LOVE it, its just the shot in the arm TV needs, its the complete antithesis of most of the other American shows we get here in the UK and its such a welcome contrast.

There are some superb TV shows on offer at the moment, Breaking Bad, Mad Men, genre shows like Dexter, Tru Blood and Walking Dead, all diverse, all excellent top draw entertainment.

Its the success of these shows that makes Five-0 such a great alternative, its fast paced, funny, has plenty of crash, bang, wallop and it looks great.

A guilty pleasure you say ? NO, this exactly what TV should be doing, offering choice, i hate reality and talent shows with every fibre of my being, but they cater to people who do like them, so i feel that i deserve an action packed cop show now and again.

Choice is the key factor in everything we do for recreation today, TV like it or not is a big part of peoples recreation, so its right that it should be offering a diversity of shows that appeal to all tastes.

As to the issue of remakes/boots, whatever, this tired argument ran out of steam on Battlestar Galactica, i ranted against the new one, then sat and watched it and realised that, you can like both, the hypocrisy cops are not going to kick your door down. If you like it, good, if you don't like it, good, but ranting about the revisiting of classics is like arguing with the weather. I used to watch the original Five-0 here in the UK (Saturday nights, ITV, late on) loved it, but i can find some room for the new one too.

This show has to get a second series, this is flat out brilliant TV, in the middle of a worldwide recession, political and social upheaval rife, the upbeat, take no prisoners, ass kicking note of Hawaii's favourite Five-0 unit is just the tonic.

Show is gone from action to fantasy rather.Without Daniel and Grace Show won't be ever the same.End is near for Hawaii Five O.

Everything about this series was impressive and in most of the episodes there is a humanitarian message to be learned , but some characters are suddenly missing and it's frustrating. For example Dr. Sharp in One episode is blocked in the elavator with Danny Williams, but then Suddenly we don't see her any more, and the same happens to Leylani the first Chin Ho's girl friend after her late wife or Charli Fong,crime scene specialist who seemed very close to Five-O and even to Steve himself, but all of them disappear without giving a good reason to viewer. Apart from this lack of deep characterization every other thing about this series, story, acts, music, light, decors, special effects ,rhythm, every aspect was stunning.

Admittedly a bit campy but the show is worth watching. Nothing intellectually challenging but it has character development and the story line is typically engaging.
