Yeah watching first responders deal with “emergencies” (multiple ones per episode - I think I remember one with a cat stuck in a tree lol) is not my cup of tea. Sounds like they took the medical show...

James Darren has passed away at 88. He was born right here in Philadelphia. Our local boy done good.

I primarily know him as Officer Jim Corrigan on T.J. HOOKER (a show from my childhood which...

Yeah I have to agree that Melody Patterson was the right age for Jo Louise. McKinsey did look a bit older - especially up close. From a distance and especially in that bikini she sure looked very...

Yeah I was never a fan of A Lion in the Streets either. So when everyone praised it as the last decent Five-O episode or the best of the last season I always roll my eyes. I feel the same way about...

Yeah, Three Dead Cows was the other one that felt too long for 2 hours. Same with F.O.B. Honolulu - just needlessly stretched out. And then The Ninety-Second War was such an oddity that parts 1 and 2...

It didn’t help matters that after the release of OHMSS and during the promotional tours he acted like a jerk and a diva and wouldn’t even listen to Cubby and Harry (the producers) and get himself...

The Grandstand Play is always kind of a mixed bag for me. I do realize that it’s a good story with VERY good performances (especially Elliott Street, who I think works well as a man-child type of...

Had no idea that Elliott Street was a “local icon” in his hometown of Meridian, MS. Looks like he was born there and died there. Glad to see that he got to talk about his Judy Moon character. :)

I didn’t know he was doing anything in recent years anyway. Thought he was already retired.

Actually he pretty much retired after OHMSS. LOL. Save for some cheap Hong Kong B-movies.

Well, Tiger by the Tail is a crackling episode with a cool twist and just awesome from beginning to end. Maybe it wasn’t all down to the writer. Perhaps the writer had to follow a certain structure...

Ah, now I remember. The “ram it” guy!! :D

He kinda looks like Joe Namath back in the day too. Maybe just the hair.

Is this the actor on Five-O whom Mr. Mike refers to as the “ugly actor”? Lol. I think he was in a few episodes.

For me I remember him best as the baddie in one of my favorite film thrillers - the criminally underrated NARROW MARGIN from 1990 with Gene Hackman. He’s one of the 2 assassins aboard the train...

Sy Salkowitz wrote my favorite MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE episode “The Town” and one of my favorite season 1 Five-O episodes “Tiger by the Tail”.

So all is forgiven :)

Yeah I read about that one. These shark attacks are starting to get scary. Used to be that you heard about some isolated incident and didn’t think much of it. But nowadays these attacks are happening...

I have to admit that Kamekona was probably one of the best things about the show. His comic appearances were always welcome and that comedy relief is the kind of thing they should have focused on and...

Pretty young to die but not surprising considering his weight.

Not sure how all that stuff in front of a live audience works in sitcoms. Pretty much every sitcom past and present used more than just one set. And some sets not very often at all. If they were even...

Nice list of 4-star episodes there, John. I know for a fact that I would have more than 20 on my list. Too many superb episodes! Over Fifty? Steal is tied with The Ransom as my favorite for season 3....

She went head to head with McGarrett in “The Case Against Philip Christie”.

Ok I see.

But you have Beautiful Screamer as a 4 star episode and you say it has a 70% chance of landing in your top 10. But then The Late John Louisiana is 3.5 stars but you say it has a 75%...

I guess what confuses me is your percentages. You give both Hookman and Beautiful Screamer 4 stars, yet you give Hookman 95% but Screamer only 70%. Surely something at 70% wouldn’t be a 4 star...

John, shouldn’t all your candidates for the top 10 spot be all 4 star episodes (or 90% or higher)? Why do you have some in there that are like 40% or 50%? Those are very low percentages that one...

I think it was last Friday that I had an issue accessing this forum. Then it was back to normal a few minutes later. That was the only time.

Mike, how come you don’t like the nightclub stuff? There’s some funny stuff there. Plus it’s very brief so it never bothered me. I wouldn’t fast forward.
