Magnum P.I. - Desperate Measures television review

The second-half of the crossover gets off to an awkward start with most of Five-0 being taken into custody (off-camera) leaving Tani (Meaghan Rath) and Quinn (Katrina Law) heading to ask Magnum Jay Hernandez and Higgins (Perdita Weeks) for help. Junior (Beulah Koale) has been taken by a group willing to exchange him for the CIA list that our heroes now have in their possession. Magnum calls in his pals, Higgins does some computer work, and Quinn and Tani spend most of the time hiding out at Robin’s Nest (or in the back of the car) while leaving Junior’s life in the hands of their new friends.

Hawaii Five-0 - Ihea 'oe i ka wa a ka ua e loku ana? TV review

When CBS decided to add a second remake set in Hawaii it was only a matter of time before we saw a Hawaii Five-0 crossover with Magnum P.I. Magnum (Jay Hernandez) and Higgins (Perdita Weeks) cross paths with Five-0 while searching for a philandering husband on case that involves stolen government secrets being brokered to China. With Magnum offering some back-and-forth with McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin), as the stand-in for the missing Danny (Scott Caan), it’s Higgins connections which prove to have the real payoff for Five-0 in retrieving the list of undercover CIA assets in China.

Remington Steele - A Good Night's Steele TV review

Throwback Thursday takes us back to the 80s detective show Remington Steele. The latest case sends Steele (Pierce Brosnan) to a medical clinic as an insomnia patient to look into its disappearing morphine supply and a missing physician (who we see murdered in the opening scene). With Laura (Stephanie Zimbalist) installed undercover as the clinic’s new doctor, the pair find the missing doctor’s cadaver along with evidence that seems to point to a narcoleptic (Paul Reiser) who fears he may have done something to the doctor in his sleep.

Silk Stalkings - Curtain Call TV review

Throwback Thursday takes us back to the unsolved crimes of passion in the wealthy playground of Palm Beach, Florida. Things get messy for Chris (Rob Estes) when a high school girlfriend (Kelly Curtis) he just reconnected with turns out to be the prime suspect in the murder of her controlling lover (Lee Benton). Struggling as much with Sarah’s bisexuality as with the possibility that she killed someone in cold blood (and then took him to bed), Chris finds it hard to focus on the case in an episode that pushes Rita (Mitzi Kapture) into the background for the most part (although she is responsible for a rather obvious idea which helps to lead to the true killer).

Hawaii Five-0 - Ka i ka 'ino, no ka 'ino television review

Adam Noshimuri (Ian Anthony Dale) continues his role of stand-in for Chin-Ho as the team member to be attacked and framed for various crimes, repeatedly. Following the events of the previous episode, which involved Tamiko (Brittany Ishibashi) being kidnapped and her father murdered, and those responsible looking to frame him, Adam steps away from Five-0 without explanation looking towards his past to set-up a new future for himself and Tamiko. While not involved in the investigation, both McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) and Danny (Scott Caan) attempt to talk to Adam, but it looks like Adam’s days on the side of angels has come to an end.
