I haven't watched Hawaii Five-O in years but I might have to watch this week's episode, where the team apparently does battle with Robocop and possibly an elephant.

Castle has sometimes been this way since season 1. Incidentally those are the best episodes of that show.

Man. I have not been able to finish Gigglefudge, I can only watch it in one or two minute bursts. I wonder if the interns they had screening the tapes in the early 90's have PTSD now.

I have never watched either Hawaii Five-O series, but drat, I would legitimately watch a cop show that took all the goofy rear end poo poo like that and acted all serious about it.

On the other side though, the original Hawaii Five-O is what caused Magnum PI to take place in Hawaii.

Unfortunately, at least when I stopped watching it, it was pretty bland and boring, its only saving grace was pretty much just the beautiful shots of the Hawaii landscape. Although it occasionally went on some weird poo poo where for some reason this group of police officers in Hawaii regularly went on international black ops to hunt down people in North Korea and the middle east, and this was in no way considered strange or unusual.

I wish I could remember the episode that ended with the team sitting together in H50 HQ watching some live footage of a night raid of some terrorist compound while they grinned at each other in dramatic slow motion. It would have been perfect if they played America gently caress Yeah over it.

I don't watch the show but I've at times had a theory that Hawaii 5-0 primarily exists because a bunch of people who worked on Lost didn't want to move away from paradise.

The show has at least 3 or 4 actors in common with Lost so that's not a terribly crazy theory.

Well the trips to North Korea, afghanistan etc were indeed considered a bit unusual since it was all unsanctioned and unofficial and they had no support etc. Overall I find it more entertaining than most procedurals and it's certainly a cut above NCIS: whatever. And occasionally there is crazy stuff like a remote control drone terrorizing the island or a nuke on the island or now robocop apparently

Between last season's episode on how evil teacher unions are and this season's episode on how psychiatric medicine is just lazy parents drugging normal kids they can't handle I can't help but feel that maybe Tina Fey has some issues about raising her kids.

Also this is the second Netflix original series to have a hamfisted unfunny Scientology parody in its second season.

I agree. It was an interesting approach to make the whole episode essentially a prequel, but it worked.
