First episode was last night. It was pretty good. Definitely will be a keeper if it keeps up. Somehow, I don't think Victor is dead. Grace Park is hot as ever. Loved her on "The Cleaner".

I enjoyed it, I´ll just have to get used to a new McGarett (having grown up with the original version) 
It was OK. I'm indifferent right now, but the show has potential...rates and 2nd and 3rd viewing...and will gain my viewership if the writers and characters mesh. I also agree that we'll be seeing Victor later in the season.
Yeah, but if she gained a few pounds she wouldn't be such a knockout...which creates a real dilemna.
Well I guess someone has to be the devils advocate.I hated it & deleted it 25 minutes in.
I'm too much of a fan of the old series on which I grew up on.

I liked it. But I wish actors that shoot guns would learn for real. I hate the blinking and flinching.
My memories of the original are so sketchy, that in many ways I just took the show as a new cop show that has a good cast set in Hawaii, with a memorable theme song. While I watched it as a kid, I didn't watch it all the time. So, the "reboot" is easy to handle, and the show itself seems interesting. The experience was different from the reboot of the Bionic Woman, which I DID remember extremely clearly, and felt that they totally botched.
I chuckled though at the beginning, since the valley where the first scene took place was used many times in LOST.
And I too liked the "book'em Danno."

I watched in the BT at 110" looked very good, and they used some of the same settings in the opening (have to look at some of the archived TOS from last month to compare)...
I would have to agree that the Victor is likely alive. After all they never seemed to kill Wo Fat either. As I recall he even escaped the law in the last episode.
I did enjoy the show but I am not that impressed with the lead. Maybe he will grow on me but right now he is cipher to me.
I am in the same boat. I barely can remember anything from the first series save the theme song. I found the episode good enough to avoid sudden timer death this round. Will have to keep watching.
It was ok. The networks continue to hype shows and then the audience watches expecting it to live up to that hype. I will give it a chance but it's just ok.
I thought it showed more promise than the original (I was not a fan). A lot of that is the visuals that HD brings to viewing. I think the noise was a little overboard, but that should settle down. I'd watched Scott Caan a lot over the years, most recently on several episodes of Entourage. He seemed to be mostly a background character and I had no personal thoughts of him at all. I'm not sure if it's the leading role, the videography or the story line. but I was very impressed. It's the first time I saw the mannerisms, body movement and physical resmblance to his dad (I wasn't aware of who his dad was and looked up info to verify last name while watching 5-o). I was very impressed by his role.
Perhaps but he did not show me much in this. Who knows maybe I will warm up to him---and I admit that Jack Lord played the role prety dead pan as well.
I'm not sure he was alive when the first "Manchurian Candidate" was made, let alone play a chinese heavy. (Wasn't that Henry Silva?)
