Hawaii Five-0 - Ho'opio 'ia e ka noho ali'i a ka ua TV review

The arrival of a hurricane crates dangerous situations for most members of Five-0. While Tani (Meaghan Rath) and Junior (Beulah Koale) are tasked with helping with the evacuation, a duty which will lead Tani into trouble when trying to convince a family from leaving their home, the Iolani Palace is tasked with being a shelter for those running from the storm which gets more complicated by the arrival of the FBI and their prisoner (Raoul Trujillo) who is known for his prison escapes. The only member of Five-0 not to have a stressful night is Danny (Scott Caan) who gives shelter to Rachel (Claire van der Boom) and Charlie (Zach Sulzbach) during the storm.

Remington Steele - Etched in Steele television review

Today’s Throwback Tuesday post takes us back to the 80s detective show Remington Steele. While attending a book publisher’s party who is interested in Steele (Pierce Brosnan) writing a book of his most famous cases, the detectives are approached by the husband (Joel Colodner) of a famous author (Shannon Wilcox) who believes his wife plans to murder him. Shortly after talking with Laura (Stephanie Zimbalist) and Steele, the man falls to his death in the exact manner that he described from the manuscript of the latest novel (but which doesn’t appear in the pages following his death). The mystery only deepens when the detectives learn that the dead man was the actual ghostwriter for the tawdry novels.

Charlie's Angels - Target: Angels television review

Today’s Throwback Tuesday post takes us back to the tale of three beautiful former police detectives turned private detectives working for a faceless boss known as Charlie. John Horn guest-stars as a hitman sent after the Angels. After unsuccessful attempts on each of the women’s lives, the team decides to fake Sabrina‘s (Kate Jackson) death in hopes of luring out the killer. What the Angels learn, almost too late, is that the mercenary wasn’t hired to kill them but only to put them in enough danger that it might draw out his employer’s true target: Charlie himself. The ruse almost succeeds, but the Angels uncover the truth just in time to save Charlie (even if the makeshift plan invovles stealing an taxi that gets blown-up on Charlie’s driveway). Unfortunately for the Angels, success means barely missing their chance for the group’s first in-person meeting.
