Hawaii Five-0- Loa'a pono ka 'iole i ka punana TV review

“Loa’a pono ka ‘iole i ka punana” centers around Grover‘s (Chi McBride) investigation into murder at the prestiguous golf club he’s been attempting to get into since he first arrived on the island. Working with the club’s head-of-security (Alon Aboutboul), Grover leads a quiet investigation which uncovers both money laundering and millions in counterfeit currency. Tani (Meaghan Rath) provide nominally support from Five-0 headquarters while processing the news that Junior (Beulah Koale) has been been recalled by the United States Navy. Looks like Five-0 is down another man for the foreseeable future.

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.

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.
