Anyone seen the new Hawaii 5-0? Is it any good?

1. I watched several episodes last season

lots of great shots of Hawaiian scenery as well as gratuitous shots of Grace Park in a bikini and Alex O'Loughlin shirtless.

Scott Caan (son of James) was fun to watch in his role as Danny (Dan-o)

However, I didn't like the fact that McGarrett (Alex O'Loughlin) ran roughshod over the Bill of Rights in pursuit of criminals.

It had some decent action and some interesting twists (I missed most of the middle of the season) - it was semi-contiguous. A few plots went through the season (McGarrett looking for his father's killer, Dan-O and his relationship with his ex-wife, etc)but, it was not one of those shows you had to watch every week just to keep up.

Not great, but not bad.

2. Exactly my reaction

Not great but not bad. We watched it all season but not out of some burning desire to not miss anything - it was just good enough to keep us interested and didn't interfere with any of our real shows lol.

I was never once disappointed in Grace Park in a bikini. Or tight jeans. Or in anything else. And I love the Camaro. I wonder if they swiped it from the failed spy show that Christian Slater was in (not the comedy, the 1 hour drama). It got cancelled I reckon right about when H-50 was getting going...lol
