Not bad, i'd go as far as to say brilliant.

It’s actually the highest rated programme of the week on a pay TV channel (if you don’t count sport).

It’s safe to say Sky1 will be very happy with these ratings, not only their highest rated show but the highest rated programme on pay TV, not bad considering they didn’t actually buy the programme but just inherited the rights from Bravo when they bought the channel off Virgin.
Guess the channel programme buyers are Moron's. I'm actually surprised FX didn't hoover it up. Sometimes brilliant shows just languish away and never get a widespread outing - ReGenesis is a classic example here - i don;t think it has ever had a terrestrial outing.

I suppose we should be thankful for accidents.

About the only time I ever watched Bravo, was for the mostly excellent 'The Unit'.

OMG, how good was last night's episode!! The 5-0 teamwork was great to watch and the emotional moments between Steve & Danny made me smile---and then they switched on the radio!! 'Sexy Eyes', seriously? I was with Danny on that one....torture

Also, the car chase at the end was brilliant mainly because I drove along that same road last November and stopped at the same barrier where the seriel killer jumped out of his car.That scene was filmed on the wetter side of the mountains and I remember it mostly because I saw wild chickens running all over the place.Very odd

Here's the Chinaman's Hat where Steve & Chin went spear fishing

Thought it was a very clever case this week, with the serial Killer.....and Peyton List, the victim {would be}, not so pretty....

Max Back...

And Steve's personal case, moving on a pace....

Last night's episode was excellent with the return of Victor Hesse, the danger to Chin forcing Steve to basically break the law, the slimy Sang Min escaping and the first appearance of Wo Fat.I was on the edge of my seat and I'm really looking forward to seeing how Wo Fat will impact on Steve and his 5-0 team

I havent watched this weeks episode yet, we're recording it to watch later on. What though, has happened to Steve's sister. Last we saw of her, she was looking in that tool box of their fathers at Steve's house, but she's not been seen or heard of since. Was she on last night?

Another fantastic Hawaii 5-0 episode tonight but the hour really went by much too quickly!

The beginning was great with Steve trying to fight off intruders then Danny ragging him about his security system, or lack of

Steve's sister wasn't as dumb as she first appeared to be and she did a good job in getting her Dad's eveidence to Steve & the team.I actually liked Mary in this episode!

Steve's bike ride up the stairs into the bar was Bada$$ and Danny's reaction was hilarious

The murder of Steve's mother and who was behind it kept me on the edge of my seat and there were enough twists & turns in this episode to rate it 10/10.

Hawaii 5-0 is definitely my favourite show on TV at the moement.I love it

Hi that was the best episode so far steve was getting very emotional looked like he was going to cry a few times and danny trying to cheer him up and keeping him going on the right side off the law to get the bad guys. Loved the scene with his sister, and where he rides the motor bike up the stairs. I think bad things may happen to steve later on and I hope danny and the rest of the team are there to help him.

Hi and dose anyone think that the governor had a affair with steves dad and she is marys mother because she was so upset and shocked with what steve said what had happened and with the kidnapping.

This guy Wo-Fat I do not like him he is going to cause so much trouble for steve and he is going to get hurt.

No. Not a chance. She was upset and shocked that this man, who has invested so much in the local economy and who is - by the sound of it - such a close personal friend, could possibly be the head of the local Yakuza.

Yeah, I watched the first few episodes of NCIS :LA and I just didn't care about any of the characters.There was no chemistry between any of them whereas Alex O'Loughlin & Scott Caan had a spark the moment they appeared on screen together.

Admittedly Hawaii Five-O had has an excellent start and achieved in half a season what NCIS:LA is still doing two seasons on in terms of chemistry between the characters but I think the Sunday night Sky1 line up of both of them is really good scheduling as they must have a very similar audience (even thought I Sky+ them and watch them separately!).

And the good news is that both are sure to return with new seasons later this year.

He looks BIG trouble for Steve.....and interesting that this was all about HIM..this week.

And what great action this week, with a stunning helicopter rescue of Mary, shoot outs and the Motor Bike entry....

Another great episode last night....with the Head in a Box.
Car Chase was very good, and the Dad who's Son died....fine acting there...

Loved the banter about CHiP's too.

....was the original 5-0 ever this good ? Or are we looking back with the rose tinted spec's - looking at Kono

Got to be 30+ years since I have seen any of it.

Presuming somone has bagged the re-re-re-re-run rights, in light of this.

Loving the show, but had to turn off this weeks episode (with the head in a box). One of the reasons I like the show is that they don't go OTT with the gore (unlike CSI/NCIS etc).

I hope its just a blip to get ratings and all will be back to normal next week.

In this case, strongly suggest you never watch New Spartacus on Sky One, of the Walking Dead on FX/Five

Fair enough. I appriciate that some people don't mind it, and I'm fine with it, its just its hard to find any decent cops shows these days that don't show all the gory details.

That's why I like 5-O so much, most of the plots don't revolve around some grizzly murder every episode. Its a more light hearted show than it appears.
