The Persistance of Memory

This is the second week in-a-row that I've forgotten to tune in to watch Hawaii Five-O. You know that tv series shot on location in the islands and airs on Monday nights. I don't watch much tv at all if that factors into the forgetfulness. Remembering to watch tv doesn't come with the territory so to speak certain shows on certain days of the week as part of a standard routine.

I watched it, buuut... I can't remember what it was about. Sigh... Awe!

wheatgerm- I'm kinda glad I watched the replay online. The latest episode was the best so far. Not so much the plot. You know the obligatory murder du jour in the opening scene, so forth. But it just seemed that the transitions from their overindulgence in multiple sub-plots were easier to follow along or didn't distract away as they usually do from the main plot. Perhaps it was a fluke. I would though say that Alex O'Loughlin (Commander McGarrett) is a world class actor with definitely a great future in the movies.

Kay- Most of the local audience watch it to take in the aerial scenery footage. With 2 koreans, and one aussie, on a 4 member special task squad it ain't a kosher Hawaii Five-O. Sure beats Magnum P.I. though. And if you can't remember the plot, there was nothing huge to remember. Oh, I just remembered, this episode wasn't as heavy on the trademark soap opera M.O.

We watch it On Demand so we can skip over the commercials, which I can't stand.

Mokihana- heck I watched all the commercials. But now that I think about it, I don't even remember what any of the commercials were about.
