That person is a quack.
Did you notice in S11, that they really ramped up the joking quotient when Danno and Steve were together?
This is timely. I've actually been slowly going through the 12th season DVD set and am finally nearly finished. A number of the episodes seem new to me (before buying all the season sets I relied on...
Interesting, thanks. I bought a different version of the box set twice and returned both due to the abysmal packaging getting the discs all scratched up. After that I just bought the seasons in their...
Hi Mike,
I don't recall if your S10 pages tell the story, but do you know what happened with the S10 discs? The packaging says "digitally remastered" like all the others but none of them clearly...
The first! Looks great on my monitor.
No, the older cigar smoking navy scientist. Ormsbee.
In the realm of "yell-y" Five-O actors, I nominate Simon Oakland as the worst offender. He grates me to no end. I don't know if he was a product of all those terrible early B&W era westerns where...
Yes. That's the one.
Hi Mike,
Did you ever find information about how much CBS paid Lord and the rest of the regulars per episode?
You don't happen to remember the episode do you? If it was Ben, that narrows stuff down to Seasons 5-7. If not, it could be anywhere from 1-11. :) I'm sure I've seen it since I've watched the...
Mike,
I had a list of bloopers I found during my rewatch marathon with time stamps and everything that I wanted to submit to you and damn if I didn't lose it. :-(
I still remember this funny one...
Thanks. I am looking forward to reading them. During the pandemic, I decided to rewatch the entire series in order. I lost steam a few months ago after season 9 and still have the glory of 10-12 to...
I have not watched one single second of the reboot. I just assumed it would be stupid and never gave it a chance.
When you were revising your scores, did you have very many "I can't believe I rated this episode so high" moments?
Thanks for your great work, Mike. I've spent many pleasurable hours reading and rereading your episode summaries and reviews.
Cool interview. Did you notice in one or more of the early launching scenes it really looked like the person or persons holding the tip of the glider down were not using the safety equipment yet near...
Not much creativity in the names of the minor male background characters (speaking or non-speaking roles) in the show. Seems like at least 2 out 3 are named "Kimo." LOL. You really notice this when...
I can't believe I'd forgotten that genre film legend Tommy Atkins played a heavy on Hawaii Five-0. Too bad the episode (Sing A Song Of Suspense S8E8) was a bit a dud that Atkins didn't/couldn't...
It may not have actually rained for the great majority of scenes where things are wet. It is very common in movies and tv shows to have the crew wet the streets before filming. I can't say that I...
Lord Lucan disappeared in November 1974 and this episode aired on 9/26/75. I would imagine the worldwide search was in the news for quite a while and still hot when the episode was being filmed.
One thing I thought that Mike would have surely mentioned in the recap was the very good possibility that the Lord Lucan disappearance loosely inspired elements of the episode. There was certainly no...
I think my favorite episode of the entire show's run is the one with the psycho mailman who bugs the psychiatrist's life.
Thanks for running the numbers again. Your conclusions mesh with my own informal personal assessment that seasons 1 through 9 have similar numbers of highs and lows episodes that average out to be...
That's interesting that you say S9 was your favorite overall, then Mike reinforces that with his latest version of his rating system that currently has it highest overall by a smidge. I know S10-12...
