Again thanks for the information. So we have two episodes in a row where Danny seems to drive the narrative. Is that an attempt to make up for all the missed ones? Oh yes, Steve does look great. And of course Steve will reward those vets for their assistantance.

I love Steve in the Santa hat looks hot. I think the special gift that Junior gets from McGarrett will be the five 0 badge.

I understand the part about a Christmas miracle, but what parent thinks its OK to tell a child a story about a H50 case with Bad Santas right before bedtime? Am I missing something here?

The same parent that is willing to take credit for fixing up a room that someone did. Not to mention telling same child that your partner AND boss belongs in a permanent time out.

YES! That was the difference between Steve and Dannoying in a nutshell. Danny lying to Charlie about Steve to make him look like an idiot. Steve lying to Charlie about Danny to make him look like a hero.
When has D ever told a child something nice about Steve? To Grace? Nope. To Joan? Nope. To Charlie? Nope.
Let’s wait and see if the writers got the memo about the annoyance of one Danny Williams.

I soooooo ❤ this comment! You are so astute. 🙂
*McG will probably have to explain to Danno what my use of ‘astute’ means. 😆

So far, it appears that the writiers have completely missed that fact, LeiCa – and have doubled down instead

The current crop of, apparently novice, writers are not exactly the top of the Hollywood food chain. I’m not sure these ones could even match pictures with character names, much less write em in character in a story that makes sense.

It really is sad. Just have them watch portions of previous seasons, especially early ones. Heck, I know I only get within throwing distance of characters at times but I sure remember how they behave. It really isn’t that difficult.

Exactly! Sooooo many fanfic writers ‘get’ the characters so much better than Show now does. And it’s the characters, especially McG, who tie us to Show. We also like SLs and plots that make actual sense, of course, but if they stay in character, we will allow alotta space for fanciful outcomes.
