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 Number One With a Bullet. 2 needlessly protracted stories that aren’t interesting or suspenseful enough to warrant a 2-hour run time. The only good thing in those 2 episodes is Ross Martin as Tony Alika. Well, I like Nehemiah Persoff too. He’s always good. But that’s about it. You’re right about Andy Kamoku constantly blustering and pounding his fists. Got annoying real fast.

The last great episode was The Skyline Killer! Should have been the series finale. McG on top of that crane at the end with the camera swirling around him and panning towards Diamond Head as the Five-O theme swells felt like the perfect conclusion to the series. Basically McG watching over his domain - Honolulu. Keeping it safe.
