Review 7.01

7.01 Makaukau ‘oe e Pa’ani?

When the bodies of two serial killers are found on Five-0 property with chess pieces in their mouths, McGarrett and the team hunt for a vigilante as fear grows that tourists aren’t safe in Hawaii, on the seventh season premiere of HAWAII FIVE-0, Friday, Sept. 23

Don’t fear, this will not be a full review. 😉

So, now we have seen our new lead-in. Will it be a good match? I guess only time will tell.

I lasted all but fifteen minutes, then I had more than enough. I couldn’t stand the lead, I couldn’t stand the narrative, I couldn’t stand the use of every cliché in the book on this show. Give me a break, please.

For the cast and crew, I hope they will find their audience that will love them, support them and carry them through their first season.

But I will not be one of them.

I will, however, watch the second episode because I have learned that the pilot can often be deceiving. Not every show gets off with such a brilliant pilot like Five-0. Often the second episode is way better.

So, MacGyver will get one more shot.
