Hawaii Five-0, tv series, 2010-

my new favorite show!

2. Hawaii Five-0

Hawaii Five-O ran from 1968-1980, and was a police action drama starring Jack Lord and James MacArthur (yes, that would be Fritz from Disney's Swiss Family Robinson, folks!). I'm sure it was great- it did run for 12 seasons after all. But now, 30 years later, it's back!

Now starring Alex O'Loughlin, Scott Caan, Daniel Dae Kim, and Grace Park. It reminds me of NCIS: Los Angeles, except the guys are better looking (HAVE YOU SEEN THAT PICTURE? <<<<<<<<------), and of course, it takes place in Hawaii. I would probably never want to visit Hawaii, but it sure is pretty on tv!

I've started season 2 because that's where the show is now and I can watch full episodes on CBS.com. But I'm excited to watch season 1 through Netflix. I really love Netflix, and right now especially. I can even watch all 12 seasons of the old version of Five-O on Netflix- instantly! I might give it a go.

The Prince and the Showgirl, 1957

Director: Laurence Olivier

Stars: Laurence Olivier and Marilyn Monroe

It's not as great as it sounds. What a title, though! "The Prince and the Showgirl"!! (Can I get an Amen?) I was waiting for something to happen the whole time, but nothing really did. The Prince sees her in a play, invites her over for dinner, tries to seduce her, and she laughs at him because he really is completely ridiculous. Nobody would like this character- he has no redeeming qualities, so it's kind of bizarre that she actually does end up falling for him later. And they spend a very long time at a coronation, and I just didn't care. And Netflix claims it's romantic, but I found no romance anywhere. So, there you go. Watch this if you are a Marilyn Monroe fan, because she's absolutely gorgeous, as well as entertaining, especially when she's a bit tipsy. But otherwise, I see no point. I'm glad I was keeping busy as I watched it.

I hate giving bad reviews! This stinks! But that's life. Not every movie can be like "Back to the Future", you know.
