This Monday Night's Hawaii Five-O



After 2 straight weeks of reruns, this is all we get for a new episode of Hawaii Five-0? If you watched tonight's Five-O, I'm simply telling you what you already know for yourself. Or perhaps you saw it differently. Tonight's guest star, or the 5th Star, as Hawaii Five-O's producer puts it, was the Iron Chef, but the scene shot at the Iron Chef's Waikiki restaurant location wasn't of anything noteworthy, except for Danno horseplaying with the fish in the kitchen that the restaurant had ordered from the morning catch, which I thought was assinine childish. Asides that, after the first commercial break, tonight's episode was so heavy on the soap opera all the way to the very last scene that earlier episodes pale in comparisons in its use of the same M.O.

Last night's show was so so for us too. I've seen the actor who played the son of the victim. Who is he? He reminded my husband of the politician Charles Djou. I just know I've seen him some place. It's really annoying me that I can't figure out where.

Kay- Well perhaps he works at a grocery store, or owns a restaurant. Would you want to on an episode? Other than that person, all the other local celebrities end up lack luster. Diane Ako, Genela, etc. The show has too many different scenes, and guest appearances end up a few minutes and if the local person don't just hit it right, the scene they were in isn't something to brag about. They probably cringe when they see themselves when the episode airs.

Didn't I see on the Kokua For Japan show that the Iron Chef presented a check for $100K?

We haven't seen it yet. I can't stand commercials, so we wait for On Demand.

Nate- the Iron Chef must know a lot of rich people. Even at the prices he charges, 100K is a huge amount.

Mokihana- the CBS website hasn't been running commercials lately for Five-O playback.
