I just watched the excellent season four episode Cloth of Gold and wondered how it might have been updated for the new series. I know they remade Hookman and would love to have seen this one done as well. The remake series was actually very awesome as well…which is rare for a past popular series! T...

I believe she was literally the last surviving original show main cast member still alive...as Al Harrington passed away within this past year or so. Howeve...

There were multiple episodes throughout 5-0’s 12 year run that used the mansion, that eventually became Robin’s Nest in “Magnum”. Sadly, in recent years the mansion was demolished, and all that remains is part of the guest house that Magnum supposedly lived in. :( These were exteriors of course, as...

Just seen the series finale (I tend to watch some shows out of order and it didn't ruin my perception of them) and oh wow, Khigh Dhiegh looks very young despite being 70. Dude has to be the youngest looking 70 year old haha. I thought he's like 50. Still have a long way with the original Five-0 but...

in other news I gotta ask, how the heck does McGarrett and the squad are okay with wearing suits on a hot summer day??? That would've made them very uncomfortable. I can't imagine wearing a suit on a very hot day, especially on Hawaii. That probably might cooked me alive LOL :lol: They still look b...

I think I regret wading into this argument already, but in looking at various synonyms for iconic, such as archetypal, epochal, and paradigmatic, I feel like a reboot can’t by definition be an archetype or paradigm shifting or the best of its epoch. It seems the original versions would have accompl...

I’m not going into “novel” sized posts about all of this anymore. I’ve stated before above, everything regarding all the shows we were discussing, and I still stand by that (as do many others). If you disagree with that, that’s fine. But, we’ve stated how we view the shows several times. There’s no ...

Agreed...time to move on.

I stand by what I’ve said regarding both the original & remakes of the 5-0 & Magnum shows...both 5-0s were amazing & were very popular and iconic with fans. That is why they lasted as long as they did. Only the original Magnum is awesome & definitely iconic for its time, as well. The remake was a d...

I liked both the original 5-0 and the reboot. It was kind of like the Bond movies Sean Connery was great as Bond, Roger Moore played it completely different...both were successful and reflective of the times. Yep. Jack Lord and Alex McLoughlin are really great, as do James MacArthur and Scott Caan ...

Totally agree...perfectly stated & good analogies! :D Although I loved Roger Moore as Bond...
