Great pic with Alex and two boys at Egan's Grappling Unlimited studio on Saturday
The boys look pretty excited and happy - It must be kinda cool for kids to have "McGarrett" as a trainer :-)

One more collage as a reminder of my friend Wendie's Five-0 Redux blog about H50 guest-actor Michael Ng
If you missed the current blog, here's the link again: http://www.honolulupulse.com/2016/01/five-0-redux-ng-makes-good/

H50 Boss Peter has posted this reminder of the big Valentine's Day episode of H50 which airs Feb. 12
I love the Season 6 wave logo

Off to work...

Awesome H50 charity auction! Even "poor" fans who can't participate can be happy - the prize is valid for 1 year!
If you think about it, you'll realize that there must be a Season 7 or the prize would be limited to the next 2 months until the end of filming for Season 6. So, personally, I'm happy about this auction even if I don't have enough money to participate - If I did, I would definitely place a bid because a set visit and small role on my favorite show is definitely this fan's dream!
Besides, the auction benefits The Pablove Foundation which helps children with cancer. So the bidders support a fantastic cause.

Have a Wonderful Wednesday with H50's Smurf Steve :-)
"Smurf" refers to the color blue that Steve wears quite frequently - which I don't mind at all since (royal) blue is my favorite color. This collage with Steve in Blue shows him in ep. 6.11 on the way to the "couple's therapy" weekend with Danno.

Forgot to share this beautiful sunrise from the set of H50 last night - Mahalo to Dennis Chun for the photo!
The sun rising over H50's base camp

Great interview with H50's Ian Anthony Dale (Kono's hubby Adam, of course) by the "Marie Claire" magazine
One of my fan-friends will love reading that Ian is considering a theatre role in London... - and I need to rewatch "The Bucket List". I was so focused on the two fantastic main actors in that movie that I can't remember seeing Ian in it. Well, I watched the movie before Ian was on H50. Is that a good excuse?

FEBRUARY 4, 2016:

Happy Birthday to a very nice colleague who happens to be a fan of both the old and new H50 :-)
Since I've been working late lately and have little time for making collages, she has to share hers with all the fans... Besides, we can all use some pretty smiles to brighten up the day :-)

A collage with McDanno from yesterday - another one from ep. 6.11 with the boys on the plane with Alyssa
A happy lady enjoying the company of McDanno :-)

FEBRUARY 6, 2016: Happy Weekend :-)

Today's Five-0 Redux blog will be a Valentine's Day special dedicated to H50's Dennis Chun and his partner Laura
Dennis and Laura recently had the opportunity to work together on H50 where Laura plays Nalani, the wife of Sgt. Duke Lukela in the upcoming Valentine's Day episode. Since fans who met Dennis and Laura together at the SOTB premiere last year, pointed out how much they liked Laura and what a nice couple they are, it will be great to see the two of them together on screen "playing" a couple.
Wendie has chatted with her friends Laura and Dennis about their experiences working together on set, about their off-screen love and Laura's beautiful art. Make sure to come back for the blog which will be online later today.
P.S.: Yes, the collage is a bit "pinkish" (which is actually not a bad thing for Valentine's Day, I suppose) but the photo background was a bit ugly in some of the photos and the colours didn't match.

And back with the great Five-0 Redux blog about a wonderful couple of the Five-0 'ohana
Laura and Dennis have shared a lot of personal details about their lives, their love and about working together on the show. Take a look! And, if you are interested, you can read my long comment below the blog, too :-)

FEBRUARY 7, 2016: Have a Sunny Super Bowl Sunday :-)

Sunday is Super Bowl Day! Fans who missed the awesome promos for SB50 & H50 might like this little collage I made
It was a fantastic idea of CBS to use H50 to promote the 50th Super Bowl. Tune in to CBS (or Sat.1 in Germany) to watch live. You might even catch a glimpse of H50's Daniel who is in San Francisco for the Super Bowl.
Needless to say that the Super Bowl and H50 logos used in the collage are, of course, property of CBS but I figured they wouldn't mind a little extra promotion and praise for their great marketing work ;-)

What an awesome photo album! Lots of great photos of H50's Dennis & Laura with fans
Mahalo to Wendie's friend Lisa who posted the album on her "H50hana" fansite. It fits in very well with Wendie's current Five-0 Redux blog about Laura and Dennis (see link above):
https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.670886109680457.1073741869.116344565134617&type=3

Will be back in a little while...

I posted another collage with pics of Laura & Dennis on Wendie's Five-0 Redux Facebook page - Take a look!

News & photos of the week with/about Alex - The weekly blog on the "AOL - An Intense Study" fansite
Life around Alex - a week in review (Feb. 1-7)
 

FEBRUARY 8, 2016:

Have a good start into the week with H50 & some of the best "football moments" on the show

Short video clip of Daniel at the Super Bowl - ready for the game!
Daniel: Here we go!

Daniel at the Super Bowl stadium with two cast members from the CBS show "Scorpion"
While my top-favorite choice for a cross-over would be "Criminal Minds", a cross-over with "Scorpion" (as suggested by Daniel) would make sense, too - The show is produced by Kurtzman & Orci and is definitely a good one ;-)
Daniel with Katherine McPhee and Elys Gabel 

Alex looking great as Steve - or "perfect" as the "AOL - An Intense Study" fansite puts it ;-)
Alex fans love this look - blue shirt, kevlar, cool hairdo & THAT face

Forgot to share this BTS-footage from H50 here last night... Thanks to "Lei" for sharing her photo and video clip
Pics of Scotty and Alex on set in Waikiki

Please sign this petition if you want stunt-coordinators like H50's awesome Jeff Cadiente to get Oscars!

FEBRUARY 9, 2016: Happy Mardi Gras for those who celebrate it...

Egan Inoue (H50 guest actor, friend and jiu-jitsu trainer of Alex) should hire his buddy Alex to promote cryotherapy :-)
Egan's recent FB promo posts about his latest offer 'cryotherapy' - a rejuvenating treatment with extreme cold (used even by the Super Bowl winners, the "Denver Broncos") - gave me the idea for this collage with Alex as vampire Mick in his former show "Moonlight". It is more than obvious that sleeping in freezers kept those vampire bodies looking good and fresh over decades and centuries. So this early kind of "cryotherapy" was highly efficient and worked very well.
Check out Egan's FB page for more information: https://www.facebook.com/eganinoue

I'll be back in a little while - I'm off work today :-)

Great photo of Alex with a lucky fan - Thanks to Jael Marisa for sharing her photo!

H50 returns to Alex's home Australia tomorrow at 10:30 p.m. on Channel Ten with the start of Season 6

FEBRUARY 10, 2016:

A little reminder of this week's upcoming Valentine's Day episode of H50 and the latest Five-0 Redux blog
The new ep. 6.14 "Hoa 'inea" (Misery loves company) which airs this Friday on CBS has a lot to look forward to: Dennis' partner Laura is introduced as Duke Lukela's wife Nalani, you get to enjoy the view of Chin's well-sculpted body - and, of course, we also see the other Five-0 team members (more or less) enjoying their Valentine's Day dates. Last but not least, there will be four new songs by Coldplay featured in the episode. So, I'd say - Tune in to CBS, lean back and enjoy!
For now, you may want to read the latest Five-0 Redux blog about Laura & Dennis, if you haven't already:
http://www.honolulupulse.com/2016/02/five-0-redux-chun-and-mellow-share-aloha/

What an amazing guy!!! Check out the story of H50 stunt-man & big-wave surfer Brock Little (Rob Melho, Khon News)
This was shared by Brock's friend Jeff Cadiente and since Brock worked on H50 - and I love surfing (watching only) - I thought I'd share it, too:
http://khon2.com/2016/02/09/big-wave-surfer-brock-little-on-the-eddie-and-his-hardest-ride-yet/

A look back at an interview with Alex from the day after the SOTB1 premiere in 2010
It's always nice to take a look back and see what Alex said about H50 back then - and it's great to know how successful the show turned out to be over the years.
Watch with Kristin - Alex interview incl. great pics of him (Sept. 2010)

FEBRUARY 11, 2016:

While we're waiting for the Valentine's Day episode of H50, let's take a look at the couples on H50
Since this fansite is mainly about Alex, we start with him as Steve and his new love-interest Lynn...

Enson Inoue (H50 guest-actor and friend of Alex) is back at the Shirokiya store in Honolulu for the last time
View my Facebook post for more information and a collage with Enson & Alex:

FEBRUARY 12, 2016:

Happy Hawaii Five-0 Friday with the NEW Valentine's Day episode on CBS & 5 older episodes on TNT (after midnight)
Tonight, the long-awaited new ep. 6.14 "Hoa 'inea" (Misery loves company) airs on CBS. We'll see the Five-0 team on Valentine's Day dates gone wrong (...or not). For further information, please view:
http://www.tv.com/shows/hawaii-five-0/hoa-inea-misery-loves-company-3343383/

We continue with our "couples' collages" of Five-0 in love...

At midnight (12 a.m. on Sat.), TNT will show a repeat of the Season 5 finale of H50 and the very first four episodes of the show
Here's the schedule for TNT on Saturday morning:
12 a.m.: Ep. 5.25 "A make kāua" (Until we die)
  1 a.m.: Ep. 1.01 THE pilot
  2 a.m.: Ep. 1.02 'Ohana (Family)
  3 a.m.: Ep. 1.03 Mālama ka āina (Respect the land)
  4 a.m.: Ep. 1.04 Lanakila (Victory)
Have fun watching, if you are a lucky fan in the U.S.! Although I'm not so sure if being sleepless between midnight and 5 a.m. is really "luck". I'd rather watch my H50 DVDs at a decent time of the day :-)

3 great sneak peeks for the H50 Valentine's Day episode 6.14 "Hoa 'inea" (Misery loves company) on CBS

IMPORTANT INFO from my friend Wendie about her Five-0 Redux blogs - They have moved to a new page!
The blogs are no longer on the Honolulu Pulse page but directly on the Star Advertiser website. This means that I will have to change all the blog links on my fansite, so don't be surprised if all those links (probably) don't work right now. Here's where you find the blogs now:

FEBRUARY 13, 2016: Happy Weekend :-)

Since I haven't been able to upload any updates since yesterday in the morning, I hope the technical problems with the web servers have been solved by now... If you can read this, it's actually good news! Here's a collage I posted on the Five-0 Redux Facebook page last night to show how I feel about computer problems. I work at a computer for up to ten hours each day, so the last thing I need after work are computer or web problems at home :-(

Make sure to come back for the Five-0 Redux blog about the episode! You'll find it on this new Star Advertiser page:
http://www.staradvertiser.com/category/five-0-redux/

Back again after another very long struggle with my computer (This thing seems to hate me lately!) trying to watch the latest episode. After spending half of the afternoon and evening cursing at my computer, I finally managed to watch and enjoy the full 41 minutes without interruptions - and LOVED the episode. I would have loved it even more without the computer problems though...
Here's the new Five-0 Redux blog about it:

Enjoy the best gifs of Steve in the H50 Valentine's Day episode - Thanks to the "AOL - An Intense Study" fansite!
Even with a black eye, this man looked fabulous - and as Alex fans, we very much enjoyed seeing Steve smile and have fun.

FEBRUARY 4, 2016: Happy Valentine's Day & Happy Sunday!

I got so "lost" making 3 collages this morning - two for Valentine's Day and one with pics of Alex, Scotty and a friend...
Here's collage no. 1 for today with Cath, Ellie and Lynn - all three of them have fans who would love to see them as Steve's partner. The other two collages will get posted later. You need to have something to look forward to :-)

I will be back later...

Here's Valentine's Day collage no. 2 for the H50 fans to enjoy...
This one includes my all-time favorite picture of Alex & Scotty and several of CBS's great Valentine's Day posts.

Since H50 fans in Hawai'i are waking up now, it's time to post this collage with Alex, Scotty & their buddy Egan Inoue
As mentionned before, Egan is now offering cryotherapy, and his friends Alex and Scotty were there for the opening of the new studio to help Egan with the promotion. Scotty was the "guinea pig" trying out the rejuvenating cold-temperature treatment.


 

FEBRUARY 15, 2016:

We continue with the Valentine's Day theme of last Friday's H50 episode "Hoa 'inea" (Misery loves company)
Quite a few H50 fans mentionned that they would have loved to see Masi Oka as Max having his Valentine's date with Sabrina, instead of just hearing him talk about it. I thought this was a good reason to take a look back at their first date at the hospital commissary. These two are so cute together!

Nice little "Allegiant" video clip with Daniel wishing a "Happy Valentine's Day"

Happy Birthday to fan Lorene who (as usual) has to share with the other H50 & Alex fans :-)
It's a very simple collage because I was literally falling asleep as I made it last night... - but, then again, even the simplest collage is a pleasure to look at, as long as our favorite cast is in it.

Time's running out for H50 fans to make their fan-dream come true - The auction for a set visit ends in about 1 hour!
If you've been dreaming of visiting the set of our favorite show and to get a little walk-on role, you should place a bid in this Charity Buzz auction which benefits a terrific foundation that helps children with cancer. Unfortunately, I haven't won in the lottery and don't have enough money to participate but if you can afford to place a bid, you should seize this great opportunity:

Check out three video clips from H50 with Kala Alexander, as well as Carol Burnett and Alex in ep. 6.12

3 a.m.: Ep. 1.06 "Ko'olauloa" (North Shore of O'ahu)

I love this! The H50 buddies Alex & Scotty - This reminds me of my favorite pic of them leaning against the Camaro ;-)

Looks like H50's Kamekona will turn into a pirate - or maybe he just gets a black eye that he needs to cover for protection...

R.I.P. Brock Little - The H50 stuntman, friend of Jeff Cadiente & great surfer lost his fight against cancer
You might remember the article about him that I shared 1 to 2 weeks ago.
Here's a photo posted by Jeff: https://www.instagram.com/p/BB9FtXQg4uVV25xs2CUknlKnJhsghr52ynuvOo0/
and an article about him:

Off to work...

Fan Chiranuj who got to visit the H50 set and meet Alex and Scotty told the "AOL - An Intense Study" fansite about it
This woman is definitely one luck lady - and has some great friends!
The story behind the pictures: Alex is a super-nice guy

More pics to get you ready for the exciting new H50 ep. 6.15 "Ke koa lokomaika'i" (The good soldier)

Wow - The promo pics for H50 ep. 6.17 "Waiwai" are already posted online and includes a great pic of Alex as Steve!
It's actually a very good thing that these pics are out already because it means I can make my usual collage(s) a little earlier than usual...

More of Steve in last night's H50 ep. 6.15 "Ke koa lokomaika'i" (The good soldier)

Don't miss today's Five-0 Redux blog coming up soon... - Here's where you'll find it:
http://www.staradvertiser.com/category/five-0-redux/

Here's the direct link to the new blog about another all-around excellent episode. I loved Steve in it because we got two sides of him - the very caring, sensitive one in his interaction with the autistic guy Neil (who was great!) and we also got Steve as the tough guy fighting Gabriel's gang with his Five-0 mates. And he looked fabulous (again). Like Lou, I love Kono and have repeatedly said that she's the best shooter on the islands and always pulls the trigger at the perfect moment! I always enjoy the fun scenes with Hirsch - especially when he's flirting with Kono. There was a lot of great action and stunts - Thanks to Jeff and his terrific team. The only thing I didn't like in this episode was to see another Coughlin show up. I hated the first one and could easily have done without Coughlin No. 2.

A great review of H50 ep. 6.15 focusing on Neil and his autism and Five-0's interaction with him
Both, the writers and the cast did a great job, indeed. I can't wait to see more (deleted) scenes with Steve and Neil on the Season 6 DVDs. Peter mentionned those on Twitter so I have even more to look forward to when I get the DVDs in fall.

Happy Birthday to H50 writer Bryan Wynbrandt!
I don't usually do collages for the writers' birthdays (which does not mean that their work is not highly appreciated!) but I remembered the great pics with Daniel and Chi and thought those pics were good material for a collage :-)

Looks like H50 will return to the Netherlands on March 6 with new episodes
I don't speak Dutch but I'm guessing that's what this post is about - The Dutch fans will know what it means :-)
https://twitter.com/VeronicaTV/status/701484269324132352 (I guessed correctly, by the way)
 

FEBRUARY 22, 2016:

It's McDanno Monday - Have a good start into the new week with the boys!
I wonder how many fans would rent this "clowns car" if Steve was the driver - and how many of them would pass for fear of getting sick from his wild driving :-)

Off to work...

Finally! H50 will return to German television (Sat.1) on April 3 - It will move from Monday nights to Sunday nights!
It's about time that German fans get a specific date to look forward to because about 8 or 9 episodes of Season 5 haven't aired in Germany yet - and fans are waiting desperately for the return of H50.
http://www.serienjunkies.de/news/hawaii-five-sat1-staffel5-74018.html

Only 1 day later Sat.1 announced that H50 will NOT air from April 3. They will show "Scorpion" and it is not yet clear when H50 will continue. Are these guys crazy?!

FEBRUARY 23, 2016:

Have a Terrific Tuesday with the hottest surfer on the islands: H50's Kono :-)
At first, I was going to do a collage of Kono, the shooter, but than chose to do one with Kono, the surfer. Just because...

Always love to see CBS shows (like my favorite H50) in the lead in the ratings tables (Here's the one for last Friday)
http://www.spoilertv.com/2016/02/final-adjusted-tv-ratings-for-friday_22.html

Off to work...

Alex talking about McGarrett with E!

BAD NEWS for the German fans of H50 - The show will NOT return to Sat.1 on April 3
Only one day after Sat.1 confirmed that H50 will return to German television, the TV network announced today that H50 will NOT return but that "Scorpion" will air, instead. This more than sucks! How stupid can a TV station be to make an announcement about the return of a show - only to revoke its statement a day later?!
 

FEBRUARY 24, 2016:

Happy Birthday to the biggest fan of H50's Scotty :-)
Since all of us can use a smile to brighten up the day, Schobi has to share with all the fans...
