I have only two comments this week:
McGarrett sleeps in pajama pants… in Hawaii?!
He then tantalizes us with a brief glimpse of his glorious state of shirtlessness before putting on a T-shirt… to go see Danny?!
It’s interesting to me that “Hawaii Five-0” is really making its mark as a hit television show. They seem to really be using their sophomore season to hone their identity as a strong action-comedy, with tonight being no exception; the action was hot and the comedy spot-on. Writer Mike Schaub really knows the team and the character arcs set up by show genius — I mean, showrunner — Peter Lenkov. Director Bryan Spicer also handled the mix of action and humor like a pro.
Writer Mike Schaub stepped up to the plate and in 2004 Boston Red Sox style knocked this episode right out of the park. In all actuality, there were so many Boston references here, I was expecting Matt Damon and Ben Affleck to pop up somewhere with a cameo role, or maybe even the Wahlberg brothers (shout out to Boston!). Mike brought the banter back, the team balanced out nicely, Kono got got another notch for her rifle, and Lori goes undercover. All of it made for an awesome episode.
Finally, I leave you with one question from the Lori fan club: “How awesome was Lori as Sandy from Grease at the end?” I don’t blame Danny and Steve for scrambling out of the office, I would have been at the front of the line.
Then there was Danny and Steve as roommates. I’m sorry we only got to see the one scene of them in the same house because I think that storyline could’ve been chock full of hilarious moments. The two of them arguing over the TV was perfect and I have no trouble believing that a city guy like Danny would have a problem sleeping to the sound of waves. I can’t wait to see what happens if Danny really does move into a house on Steve’s block. That might be almost as good as them being roommates.
Forgetting all the anvils bout how “hot” Lori Weston is in pleather and paint-on pants, this episode was a really fun romp. As usual, the bromantic moments shined above everything, but the case didn’t detract from character, which I will always find refreshing.
Leave it to “Hawaii Five-0″ to give is an hour of TV involving facial reconstruction, muscle cars, the Irish mafia and the music of “Grease.”
While ‘Ike Maka,’ which means ‘identity,’ was nowhere near as zany as last week’s wild ride, it wasn’t without the charm and silliness we’ve come to expect from “H50.”
Based on AOL’s track record he has no problem with nudity, one can only hope….:devil:
Opps… that was supposed to be attached to the comment below…
I love the fact that when he puts his tshirt on you can read his anger so clearly and almost hear what he is muttering to himself….
Well Mizz,
Those are exactly the things that popped in my head.
Where i live it’s barely freezing and we don’t wear that much clothing in bed… well don’t get that the wrong way
If i where in Hawaii and had that on me i would fload out of bed
Thank you for all the fascinating recaps and reviews of episode 209. I love reading them all.
Yes Mizz
That is what we get for loving a family show that is on primetime CBS and not HBO late night viewing
So what about ABC’s primetime NYPD Blue with their famous “full backside in the shower” scene with Dennis Franz? What, does CBS think we can’t handle it if it’s Alex??? Do they think there would be too many 911 medical emergency calls during that time period??? We’re all adults here. We’re capable of handling it in an mature manner. After all, we’re not adolescents anymore.
Wait a minute…oh dear…just the thought…need to dial 911…help!
I was just about to say aloud, “Has CP15 lost thier mind?!” Then I read the last sentence.
I need 911 just viewing him fully clothed.
