Great news from the H50 writers - They are back at work today for Season 6
Welcome back to the creative minds of our favorite show!

Happy "Topless Tuesday" with Alex as Steve McBond in the H50 Season 5 finale - Enjoy the view ;-)

I made a collage with pics of Miya Cech, the adorable girl who played young Kono in H50 ep. 5.23
Since Miya (resp. her mother) commented on Wendie's latest blog and seemed to be really happy that she was mentionned in the blog, I figured she'd be even happier to get a collage dedicated to her - and she loves it (look for the comment by her Mom Eryn who also shared the collage on Twitter). I posted this on the Five-0 Redux page last night.

JUNE 3, 2015:

Nothing new this morning, so I'll just declare today "Wonderful Wednesday" with another Steve collage :-)
I didn't have time to make any other collages, so I'm using one of the "Topless Tuesday" ones that I have "in stock" already. Something tells me that none of the fans of Alex will complain. Since I'm guest-admin on the Facebook page of the German AOL Fan Club at the moment (while the main admin is on vacation), this week's primary focus is on pics of Alex.

Off to work...

The "White Hot Wednesday" pic of Alex in a photo-shoot a few years ago - on the AOLww fansite
Alex looking hot - even fully dressed and wearing glasses :-)

The heart-warming story of a little autistic girl meeting Alex at the "Fangoria" convention in 2008

Happy Holiday with Steve to those who get off work for Corpus Christi Day (like me)...
Those of you who have to work can, at least, enjoy this view ;-)

I posted a collage for the Chin & Kono fans on the Five-0 Redux FB page late last night:
The cousins Kono & Chin in Season 1 to 5 of H50

A good quote & photo of Alex from a photo-shoot posted on the "AOL - An Intense Study" fansite
By the way - if you follow that fansite on Facebook, you get to see much more than what I share here!
True words from the man & a great pic

Happy Birthday to Egan Inoue - H50 guest-actor (Ep. 2.01 and 4.21), Alex's buddy & jiu-jitsu trainer!
If you happen to be in Hawaii, check out his brandnew "Egan's Fit Body Bootcamp" studio near the Aiea Bowl. The photo with red and blue was taken there. The new place definitely looks good - and Egan and his team of trainers do a great job, as you can easily tell when you look at Alex's well-shaped, fit body (Thanks to his jiu-jitsu training with Egan!) or read fan accounts from the women's self-defense classes held by Egan and Alex recently for charity.
For further info follow www.facebook.com/eganinoue or go to www.hawaiifitcamp.com

P.S.: The smiling lady in the photo with Egan is my friend Wendie - author of the Five-0 Redux blogs (Star Advertiser's Honolulu Pulse).

Aloha & Update from Dennis Chun (Sgt. Duke Lukela on H50) - He's also included a photo with Wendie from this week

JUNE 7, 2015: Have a Sunny Sunday :-)

It's been hot and sunny out there in Munich - Let's see if Steve turns up the heat even more...
Just imagine going for a swim with him in the ocean - that might help to cool off :-) Today is my last day as guest-admin on the AOL German Fan Club's FB page, so I just had to post another Steve collage for Alex's fans to enjoy. This is another great pic from the fantastic finale of Season 5 which spoiled fans not only with an exciting story but with plenty of eye-candy, too.

Steve in the 100th episode of H50 made it into CBS's list of "CBS Characters getting down & dirty"

JUNE 8, 2015: Have a good start into the week!

Sorry, no update this morning before I rush to work. There was a huge thunderstorm and I'm one of those cowards that keep electrical devices unplugged during thunderstorms to avoid damage from lightning - Now there's no time left for updates.

Happy McDanno Monday with the boys and their dogs :-)

Tons of fun to the H50 fans incl. my friend Wendie who will be joined by some H50 actors at a tweet-up tonight
Wendie and a bunch of Hawaiian fans will be meeting for a tweet-up and some guest-actors and one or two of the recurring cast members will join them at the Big City Diner. Take a look to see who will be there:
https://www.facebook.com/events/638159102950531/
 

JUNE 11, 2015:

Reminder: This is a fansite run by a fan. I am NOT CBS or H50! The same applies to my friend Wendie. Although she is from the press, she will not have information on whether there will be a Sunset-on-the-Beach premiere of H50's Season 6 (and a date for it) until CBS makes an official announcement. We have to wait just like all the other fans. There have been quite a few fans asking about a SOTB6 since we shared the date for the TV premiere on CBS (Sept. 25) two days ago. We'll certainly let you know as soon as we get information about an SOTB but, for now, we don't have that info.
Here's just a pic from the SOTB3. You might all remember that Alex said in that interview with HNN that there should be a SOTB every year - even after the show ends! Let's all hope that his CBS bosses David Stapf and Nina Tassler listen to their best actors ;-)

Off to work...

Today is, of course, "Five-0 Redux Blog Day" and the new blog will be about the fan tweet-up on June 10, 2015
As mentionned before, local H50 fans met with actors from the show, such as Dennis Chun, this week and celebrated the renewal of H50 for Season 6 - and the birthday of Wendie's son. Here's my promo collage for today's blog.

Happy Birthday to Taylor Wily (Kamekona on H50)!
If you follow the Five-0 Redux page on Facebook, don't be surprised if I don't share it there until after I get back from a friend's birthday breakfast because it's still Saturday in Hawaii right now.

Happy Hawaii Five-0 Night to the U.S. fans with a rerun of H50 ep. 5.09 "Kanalu hope loa" (The last break) on CBS
CBS will spoil its viewers this week with one episode each night at 11:35 p.m. - Actually, there will be two episodes on Friday (one at 9 p.m. and one at 11:35 p.m.). To view the blog and collage for tonight's ep. 5.09, please view my page about Season 5.

A new collage for ep. 5.03 "Kanalu Hope Loa" (The last break) which airs tonight at 11:35 p.m. on CBS
This is a "McGrover Monday" collage because Danno didn't share any screentime with Steve in this episode.

The RELEASE DATE for the Season 5 DVDs has been announced today as September 1, 2015
The list of specials looks great except that there's no audio commentary by Alex. Many fans (incl. myself) had hoped for a commentary by him on the 100th episode. I assume that the commentary by Peter and Larry Teng will be on ep. 5.07.
http://tvshowsondvd.com/n/21205
 

JUNE 16, 2015:

Another "Happy Hawaii Five-0 Night" for the U.S. fans with H50 ep. 5.04 "Ka no`eau" (The painter) on CBS at 11:35 p.m.
Ep. 5.04 is the episode with my favorite promo pic of Alex (in my collage on the Season 5 page where you also find the blog about the ep.). It's also the most important Danno episode of the Season with him going to Columbia with Steve to get back his kidnapped brother from Marco Reyes - the criminal I disliked the most so far on this show.

JUNE 20, 2015: Happy Weekend!

Today's new Five-0 Redux blog will be about the fathers on H50 since it's Father's Day weekend in the U.S.
Wendie will write about the fathers of the Five-0 team members, as well as memorable fathers in guest roles. I assume that Michael Madsen from ep. 4.14 might be one of them - he didn't quite fit into the collage but I'm not 100% sure about whom Wendie will write, anyway.

Fun gif of Steve's face on H50 - posted for "Special Feature Saturday" on the AOLww fansite

I also made a new collage with the pics used in the blog - Here's the link to the Five-0 Redux page:

Another collage that fits in with the new Five-0 Redux blog for Father's Day...
I know, of course, that Steve is not a father but he definitely cares a lot about children - like a real father. Besides, these scenes and episodes with Steve and children are among my top-favorites on the show, so I just felt like making a collage with them :-)

JUNE 21, 2015: Have a Sunny Sunday!

Today is Global ALS Awareness Day - Support the fight against ALS like the H50 cast & crew!
Those of you who've followed this page for a while will certainly remember that several cast and crew members (inkl. Peter, the Boss) participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge last August to raise awareness of the awful and still uncurable disease ALS - a disease that Alex's mother-in-law died from. Alex and a few crew members, as well as fans, also took part in the "Walk to Defeat ALS" in Sept. 2014. Today's Global ALS Awareness Day is a good occasion to post a reminder of the fight against ALS and to motivate you to go to www.alsa.org to get informed and to support the fight by raising awareness and/or making a donation.

Here are some links related to H50's support of the ALS Association (from 2014):

Stars incl. Peter and Jimmy Caan at a fundraising concert for the great Gary Sinise Foundation
The foundation set up by Peter's friend Gary helps wounded service men and first responders (fire fighters) - definitely a cause worth supporting!

JUNE 22, 2015: Have a good week!

Collage with Daddy Danno & Gracie posted very late last night on the Five-0 Redux page

JUNE 23, 2015:

Slightly belated - forgot to post this here, as well: The Happy McDanno Monday pic :-)
The best TV bromance ever: McDanno

Today's Topless Tuesday collage is dedicated to Scotty - Please view the Five-0 Redux Facebook page!
Since my website comprises many hundreds of collages by now, I've decided to post only those on here which include Alex/Steve. But the Five-0 Redux fans (and myself, too) like the entire main cast and other actors on the show, so I'll keep making collages with different actors/characters but I'll post those without Alex/Steve only on the Five-0 Redux FB page.
The collage with Scotty that I'm about to post is very hot though - definitely worth a look ;-)

FINALLY - The Season 5 DVDs of H50 can be preordered from Amazon!
They used an "O" instead of the "0" in the show's title which made it harder to find since the O was only used in the original 1970's show. Please note that the DVDs don't come out until Sept. 1, so there's no hurry...

Off to work...

Congratulations to H50 on being one of the first shows that have been certified by "Get the 6"
Films and shows are "6 certified" for their realistic portrayal of veterans.
Here's an article about the certification (Washington Post)
Here's the official certification document received by Peter 

Time to vote for the H50 theme song again in the EW "TV theme songs bracket"
This week, it's "Cheers" vs. "Hawaii Five-0"

JUNE 24, 2105:

Sorry, no time for an update this morning before work - please view the "old" pages of the fansite. There's a lot to read, view and enjoy!

Interview with Alex talking about shooting sex scenes (incl. gifs of those scenes!)
Thanks to the "AOL - An Intense Study" for this "hot post" :-) Poor Alex - it doesn't sound like fun to shoot these scenes but he certainly does a great job - despite the awkwardness of the situation and the 50 people watching him.
Making love with Alex O. (Interview & Gifs)

The perfect look - Alex as Steve McBond in a tux in the Season 5 finale (AOLww fansite)
The view just can't get any better - although I love him in plain t-shirts, too

Wendie got great feedback from Peter regarding her latest Five-0 Redux blog. It's well-deserved!
Peter's public Twitter message to Wendie & Link to the blog

A little late... but better late than never - A "Wonderful Wednesday" collage with Alex
I posted a single photo from this promo photo-shoot on the Five-0 Redux page earlier and the fans loved it, so here's more of Alex in various shades of blue...

JUNE 25, 2015:

Excellent choice for "Throwback Thursday"

There are more pics on that Instagram page but this one's the best:
Dennis, Keo & others at the class
 

JUNE 26, 2015: Happy Hawaii Five-0 Night with CBS & TNT

For a good start into your Friday, here's a collage with Alex offering you a ride...
I got the idea for the collage after Wendie posted the photo from the H50 fan tour. I just thought that McG would be the perfect chauffeur on fan tours :-)

It's a Happy Hawaii Five-0 Night again for the CBS- and TNT viewers in the U.S.
Tonight, CBS will show ep. 5.10 "Wāwahi Moe`uhane" (Broken dreams) at 9 p.m. (ET). On Saturday morning, TNT will show the episodes 4.06 "Kūpouli`la" (Broken) and 4.07 "Ua nalohia" (In deep) from 4 a.m. The related collages & blogs can be found on my pages about Season 4 and 5.

Off to work...

Alex and Egan will do a jiu-jitsu demo at the Whole Foods Market Kailua today
Hopefully, this store has plenty of room for H50, Alex, jiu-jitsu & whole foods fans :-)

The "Fabulous Face Friday" pic of Alex as Steve in H50 ep. 5.05 "Ho`oilina" (Legacy) on the AOLww fansite
This scene at the cemetery was definitely a fan-favorite!
Alex as Steve - A great performance & awesome look
 

JUNE 27, 2105: Happy Weekend :-)

Saturday is "Five-0 Redux Blog Day" and the new blog will be about the H50 fan tour Wendie enjoyed this week
Today's collage consists of photos taken by Wendie and her friend Amy on the fan tour - and next to the photos, you see the same motives from a similar angle on screencaps from H50. On those fan tours organized by "Hawaii Jeep Tours", you not only get to visit various public sights and locations, such as the Diamond Head outlook (Danno's favorite place on Oahu) or King Kamehameha's statue which every H50 fan will immediately recognize - but you also get to visit the Bayer Estate which serves as Steve McGarrett's home on the show. I've seen (personal) photos of fans lying on the bed that Steve usually sleeps in :-) Today's blog should be quite interesting for fans who intend to travel to Hawaii and want to get some inspiration on what to do while they are there - like going on one of those fan tours.

Please view my page about Hawaii for more travel information & links incl. the one to Hawaii Jeep Tours.

Photo collage with Alex and Egan doing their jiu-jitsu demo at the Whole Foods Market Kailua on Friday
Too bad that Wendie couldn't go to get some pics because of an important family event.
Thanks to the market for the photo: Alex, Egan & Co. showing some jiu-jitsu exercises

Happy smiling fans with Alex at the a.m. market - Thanks to Francesca for sharing!

The "Special Feature Saturday" pic of Alex as Steve - on the AOLww fansite
The blue shirt turned all grey - but the man wearing it still looks great :-)

Will be back later when the blog is online (or earlier)...

This is great! Wendie has compiled a small album with pics of smiley Alex & Egan at the Whole Foods Market Kailua
These photos are from different sources incl. Egan Inoue's Grappling Unlimited Studio & Wendie's friend Monica.
I always love to see Alex so super-relaxed & enjoying his hiatus

Here it is! Wendie's great Five-0 Redux blog about the H50 fan tour with "Hawaii Jeep Tours"
I bet fans will easily remember each and every spot mentionned in the blog or shown in the photos.

JUNE 28, 2015: Have a Splendid Sunny Sunday :-)

Yesterday was the "Day of Sunglasses", so here's the appropriate collage for this weekend...
I can't remember ever seeing Danno wearing sunglasses nor could I find any pics of him with sunnies, so he's not in the collage.

Since the awesome Chi McBride isn't in the collage either, here's a photo of him with his wife Julissa
Thanks to Julissa for this great pic with her hubby

Totally cool photo of Egan Inoue surfing: Egan at Saturday's Surf Fest

Nice BTS-photo with Scotty and also Claire van der Boom (Rachel on H50) from Scotty's current theatre play
Please view the fansite I'm sharing from for more current photos with Scotty!
Scotty & Claire & Teri Reeves at the Falcon Theatre

Will be back later...

Happy 1st Wedding Anniversary to Jac & Jeff Cadiente - H50's very own fan-loved "stunt couple" ;-)
Jeff is, of course, the excellent stunt-coordinator of the show and also directed an episode before. His wife Jac works on the H50 stunt-team, too.
Wedding photo (2014) posted by happy hubby Jeff

Hmmm - Anyone interested in piercings on Alex? This is a blog about them on the "AOL - An Intense Study" fansite
I admit that I've never paid much attention to any piercing marks because there are many more attractive features in his face to focus on that are much more interesting than tiny piercing holes. But since that fansite keeps track of search words used by fans, they had a good reason for this blog because fans obviously wanted to get information about Alex's piercings. Oh, well...
AOL - Yes, he's got piercings

Join Alex & H50 in supporting the ALS Association through the "Walk to Defeat ALS"
Please view all the links below about the great work of the ALS Association and the "Walk to Defeat ALS" which will take place on Sept. 19 in Hawaii.
Last year, the "H50 ALS Warriors" team (led by Eric Uyeda) participated in the walk to raise awareness of the fatal disease ALS and to collect funds for the work of the ALS Association. Alex participated in the walk, too, and held a speech at the event. If you are not lucky enough to be in Hawaii to participate in the walk along with Alex and other members of H50, you can make an online donation through the page of the "H50 ALS Warriors" team. The family of Alex's wife Malia whose mother died of ALS is also participating with their own team, the "ALS Ohana of Hawaii" - you could donate to their team instead, if you like. Ultimately, all of the money will be used for the same good purpose.

Have a Happy McChin Monday & a good start into the week :-)

Off to work...

Great set of gif images of Alex as Steve feeling sad - shared by the AOLcoholics fansite from 'tissueofflies'
Steve in very sad moments on H50

A blog with many pics about Alex and the hiatus beard (AOL - An Intense Study fansite)
Some fans really do post super-rude comments about the beard, which is not appropriate fan-behaviour. While I've never liked beards and am certainly not going to lie about that, even if my favorite actor is the one having the beard, I would never expect him to shave because of his fans. And, after all, it's still Alex behind that beard - the man we all love because of his big heart for charities, huge talent and great sense of humor. This blog is to remind you that we, the fans, do NOT own Alex's face!
Alex - A man of many (bearded) faces :-)

Photo of cool Chi McBride shared by his wife Julissa: Chi looking cool in his hiatus outfit

Saturday's long line of people waiting to sign up as extras for H50's Season 6 (Photo: Dennis Oda, Star Advertiser)
Looks like a lot of people would love to be on the show - even if they'll often just be seen on screen for a second or two.
I wonder which of these folks we will see on screen some day 
 

JUNE 30, 2015:

Have a Happy Tuesday with one of my favorite BTS-photos of Alex!

Wendie has posted her full photo album from the H50 fan tour last week on the Five-0 Redux FB page - Take a look!

Off to work...

Enjoy the "Topless Tuesday" gif of Alex taking off his shirt - Thanks to AOLww for the "viewing pleasure" :-)
Alex making one of those "hypnotizing" moves ("Hypnotizing" = keeps fans staring at him)

Since I won't have time to post anything on Wednesday before work, here's a late-night collage to enjoy...
My colleague said she loves Steve in his white uniform and would love to have a collage for her screensaver at work. Her wish is my command - not least because I get to view this on her computer, too ;-)
