Just watched it tonight.

Feels strange that the whole thing is over. Despite the show's flaws, I will still miss it and its characters.

I didn't understand the reveal near the end. It seemed as if they were showing John McGarrett being told by Wo Fat that he's "Doris McGarrett's daughter", and then John asked Wo Fat to "never tell Steve" (even though Wo Fat was about to order him dead!)

But didn't a DNA test a few seasons ago prove that Steve McGarrett and Wo Fat weren't related? How do they explain this?

Otherwise, a pretty good finale which had a little bit of everything.... a tie-in to the beginning, some action, some closure, and for once a decent "Ohana" segment at the end. Plus it was implied that Steve and Catherine would be traveling the world together, looking for inner peace.

Cole was a good character... too bad we only got to see him for 2 episodes.

I liked when Danno ruthlessly shot Daiyu Mei's henchman while the guy was knocked out on the ground. The guy was about to execute Danno a few minutes earlier, so he deserved it!

It's unclear why Daiyu ordered Danno executed after Steve gave up the cipher, and if so, why they didn't just waste Steve as he walked away from the exchange. I thought this whole thing was about money?

The episode did have some homoerotic overtones between McGarrett and Danno, but fortunately they never fleshed any of that out beyond the two men just having a very close male bond, enough to say "I love you" to one another, as McGarrett prepared to leave Hawaii.


A TV movie is definitely a possibility in the future, especially if most of these actors don't have other commitments. Maybe they could even bring Chin and Kono out of mothballs!
