Goodbye Kono
Goodbye, Mom?
Only one “proper” smile from Steve, it will have to last till Season 4.
The End – Dun dun dun!!!
as usual, more to come tomorrow….
Alex O´Loughlin ~ An Intense Study

I thought this epi was ok, apart from the kidnapping (yet another one in HI, what´s up with that!). I was watching the end with the beautiful music playing and thought, how nice, finally a calmer season finale ending, such a nice change to their usual stuff 🙂 Then noticed there´s a couple of minutes left and oh boy, sure enough the WoFat drama to hold us in suspense for the hiatus LOL
Ps I doubt any hate mail will come your way, don´t worry 🙂

I totes agree 100%, Only S1 had what truly felt like a worthy season finale. The 5-0 writers need to take the hiatus to figure out how to step up their game. If not, we may not see S5. JMO

I hope there will be another one or two (or three) seasons, because I like Alex as Steve, the cop/commander stuff comes natural to him! I love the show and I think the finale was not as bad as everyone says! The actors play well together and I love the personal stuff too! Famous NCIS had one or two lame finals too, but I still enjoy them!

Thanks for the Steve pics, and some of the Finale was okay. The Steve and Doris in the office was good, but noticed Alex had a cold, or is it just me.
I found they almost covered too much in this episode. Could have made it a two-parter!! If you don’t record it (like us folks! 😉 ) then you miss half the dialogue, at least that is for me! I re-watch either next day or later, just to catch up!
But of all the favourite re-watches for me of Season 3 are
“Olelo Ho’Opa’I Make” Chin kidnapped, that smile from Sergeant Duke Lukela when the helicopter flies over!,
Hana I Wa’Ia – Where the governor and Steve are yelling at each other, and Danny is in family court!
Hookman – Love the tribute to the old series, and the episode itself. The ending was kinda so-so. .but those are the kinda episode I enjoy! Need a pick-me-up and those three are tops, for Season 3..
Anyhow, off-topic a bit! Sorry!
Thanks again for the great caps.. I wanted to cap the Steve and Doris in the office, buy local TV icon was covering some of that Gorgeous Face! 😯

I hope for more McRoll too, but if she becomes part of the team, that may put a damper on there relationship 😕 I know a lot of people are upset that Kono is leaving, but the show will survive and change isn’t always bad. It reminds me of my other favorite show NCIS, when Kate was shot at the end of season 3. She asked to leave the show to start a family too, I think. Social media wasn’t as accessible back then, but if it had been, I bet Cote (Ziva) would have received a lot of H8.
I will be back later to comment on all the pretty! 🙂 McYum indeed!
LikeLike
It was the end of season2 when Kate got shot (sorry, I’m McNerding a little bit here 😉 ) and I was shocked, but Ziva was doing a great job and I loved every ep (and I love the old ones with Kate)! Changes are a chance too (we say that in swiss german) So, we will see!

Good catch buttercup 🙂 I should have my NCIS fangirl badge taken away. I guess it seemed like Kate was there longer than 2 seasons. Hmm. BTW I love Kono and hope she comes back..maybe for season 4 finale?? The writers need to get a clue how to write for strong women characters, IMO. I just started liking Kono again, then she leaves 😦

Thanks Paula for all the goodies and pretty Steve. Again Alex and Christine were amazing they work so well together and that give us an emotional Steve and that man can act, He is the best of them and that’s why he has the leading role.
Another ep that made me cry in the end. I love Kono and I will be sad if she doesn’t comeback, she said to Steve when she embraced him that its not forever, I really hope so.
As for the new 4 with Cath, I’m really happy. I’m a McRoll and I love them together.
And now we have Steve locked with Wo Fat until September and how the hell is he going to get out of this mess with no guns and the bad guys on the other side of the door.
I had to laugh at your comment ” they had the chance to ship off Danny” lol
I thought the same thing, you know that I’m not his fan,
LikeLike
That Danny comment was funny, and sometimes it would be cool to ship him off, but hey, he can fuss with Steve and thats so cool! And they have many great scenes together (like “why do you always have to be so negative”) and hey Steve wouldn’t have the cool camaro to drive 😉 !!

Peter Lenkov has already tweeted that Kono isn’t going anywhere. And I really don’t see them putting Catherine in team mode as the last time (Lori) they tried to do that when scenes of Kono were sparse, fans hit the roof.
As always the season finale was off the chart from the first moment it hit the screen. And they did a great job of leaving us hanging for a season 4 premiere which finds them on a new night. They also did a great job of not killing off recurring actors who have new shows next fall.
Now all CBS needs to do is promote this iconic show in the manner it should be.

Not a big Cath fan–I don’t mind her with Steve, it’s the suspended state of belief about her job that I don’t like. She IS in the NAVY. How does she get so much free time to act as a Five-O? It’s just so unbelievable (I know, I know, silly comment on THIS show). But it bugs me. I’d really like @Plenkov to explain THAT.

Thank you Paula for the stunning post!! As great as ever. Love your text caps, too. The epi worked for me fine, not perhaps the best I’ve ever seen, but good enough. Especially in the second half, the beginning seemed rather slow to me.
The Wo Fat scenes really got me – I found myself not only making inarticulate sounds and giggling when watching (which I do normally), but actually trying to negotiate with the screen… Such as attempting to convince Michael not to hurt Fong – apparently, I failed. I’m glad I have sense enough to watch only when home alone 🙂
