Scotty not only plays the main character Jimmy but also wrote the script - like he did with former plays he wrote and played in. It's part of Playhouse West's concept that students of this acting school keep returning to it to teach, write and play together with fellow students.
Here's a summary of what the play is about:

JUNE 2, 2019: Have a Sunny Sunday!

Today's two collages take a look back at the final scene of the Season 9 finale of H50 - and the scene that led to the mother's act of revenge:
There are a number of possibilities of how this could have ended but will have to wait for Season 10 to find out...

Happy H50 Night to the German fans with a repeat of ep. 8.04 on Sat.1 at 10:15 p.m.!

CBS is so right: Sunsets in H50's beautiful home Hawaii are the perfect way to celebrate World Environment Day:

I agree with H50 boss Peter - Crazy Shirts Hawaii makes the best fan merchandise :-)
My beloved fan collection includes several H50 shirts from their store, and one or two will be added to the collection, for sure, when I'm in Hawaii next time.

There's a Five-0 Redux fan-poll on Facebook and Twitter to find out the fans' favorite H50 episodes from Season 9!
The next blog will be based on the fan feedback from this poll. You can leave your comments on Wendie's Facebook and Twitter pages. You can pick two favorite episodes which you consider the best. If you tell Wendie why you like these episodes, please indicate your full name and your city/country, so she can quote you in her upcoming blog.

Don't miss the new Five-0 Redux blog about the best episodes of H50 Season 9 chosen in this week's fan-survey
While I'm not 100% sure, I think these three episodes (9.07, 9.10 and 9.17) got the most votes by fans. I think we all agree that the 200th episode stood out the most because of its cool 1940's look. I loved the episode and find it amazing that Peter and his writers always come up with awesome, new ideas for special episodes like ep. 9.07. Even though I did not participate in the fan-survey, it would have been my number 1 choice. However, I would have found it hard to pick more "best" episodes from Season 9 because I thought a lot of them were really great.
Here's where you'll find the new blog later on Saturday:
https://www.staradvertiser.com/category/five-0-redux/

Welcome to H50 alumn Daniel Dae Kim in Munich, Germany - my home!
Actually, I walked around at Marienplatz earlier today, too, but probably before he was there. It's funny to see him in photos from Munich after watching him and Five-0 in the Season 6 repeats of H50 on TV tonight. If he returned to his hotel room in time and turned on the TV, he might have seen himself as Chin on Kabel Eins :-)

Enjoy these pics of H50's McDanno posted by CBS for "Best Friends Day":

Happy World Ocean Day with Super-SEAL Steve :-)


 

JUNE 9, 2019: Have a Sunny Sunday :-)

The Five-0 Redux blog about the H50 fans' choices for best episodes from Season 9 is online!
Obviously, I was wrong about the No. 1 choice. I thought the 200th episode would be at the top (as it's my No. 1 choice) but the fans chose ep. 9.10 as best episode of Season 9. While I loved the final scene of ep. 9.10 with the beautiful sunset and Alex's brilliant acting in it, the rest of the episode did not stand out all that much from other episodes. But that's just my personal opinion. Since Wendie asked for best episodes and not just best scenes, I made a different choice than the majority of fans who participated in this week's fan-survey. Now take a look at the latest blog:
https://www.staradvertiser.com/2019/06/08/features/five-0-redux/five-0-redux-fans-weigh-in-on-top-hawaii-five-0-episodes-from-season-9/

Some info for German fans who saw my post about H50 alumn Daniel Dae Kim being in Munich, Germany:
He is actually here to work on the sci-fi thriller "Stowaway" with Anna Kendrick and Toni Collette. There are 23 filming days in Munich at the Bavaria Filmstudios and at the Rise Visual Effects Studios. The film is an international co-production by Augenschein Filmproduktion, Rise Pictures and XYZ Films. The film is based on a script by Ryan Morrison and Joe Penna; Penna also directs the movie. The film is about a mission to Mars with a stowaway on board of the spaceship - which causes a bit of trouble, as one might expect.
Since Daniel is here in Munich to work and not just for a quick weekend visit, there is a slight chance that fans in Munich might see him when he explores the city in his time off work. Today, he went to see the Caravaggio exhibition at the Alte Pinakothek. It would be kinda cool if he visited the museum I work at, too :-)
Anway, I'll keep my fingers crossed for his fans to meet him somehow but it's probably not easy since he's working inside most of the time.

Happy McGarrett Monday with Steve in H50 ep. 9.23! No repeats on TV - just a new collage I hadn't posted yet :-)

Hopefully, you didn't miss the latest Five-0 Redux about the best H50 episodes of Season 9 - chosen by fans!
For the unlikely case that you haven't read the blog yet, here's the link to it again - and a collage with the fans' Top 3 choices:
https://www.staradvertiser.com/2019/06/08/features/five-0-redux/five-0-redux-fans-weigh-in-on-top-hawaii-five-0-episodes-from-season-9/
And as mentionned before, my personal top-favorite was the 200th episode (9.07).

I'll be back because today is still a workfree holiday in Germany ("Pentecost Monday")...

Happy Magnum P.I. Monday to the CBS viewers with a repeat of ep. 1.11 of H50 Boss Peter's 2nd Hawaii-based show!
The show had been taking a break since the season finale back in spring but is now back with repeats - hopefully until it returns in September with Season 2. For more info about Magnum P.I., please view:
www.alex-the-best.de/magnum/magnum.htm
Also follow the Magnum Reloaded Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/MPIReloaded/

Happy McDanno Monday with the H50 fans' favorite duo in ep. 9.17!
The episode was the No. 3 among the best episodes of Season 9 chosen by fans in the recent Five-0 Redux survey.


 

JUNE 11, 2019:

Happy H50 Night to the German fans with a repeat of the Season 8 Halloween episode 8.05 on Sat.1 at 10:15 p.m.!
For more info and collages from Season 8, please view:

Work's calling....

H50 fans who want to catch up with Season 1 of Magnum P.I., should get the DVDs which are released today!
Since H50 boss Peter's 2nd show from Hawaii will join H50 on Friday nights this fall on CBS, I highly recommend to get the Season 1 DVDs now, so you are ready for Season 2 in September when both shows air on the same night - and will certainly have a crossover. Besides, both shows are great and a good "match" for Aloha Fridays. I posted a collage on my Magnum P.I. page, as well as on Wendie's Magnum Reloaded Facebook page to promote the DVD release - and Peter retweeted our Magnum Reloaded post from Wendie's Twitter account.
Please follow the Magnum Reloaded Facebook page for news, collages and, of course, the blogs about Magnum P.I.:
https://www.facebook.com/MPIReloaded/
Info and collages can also be found on my own pages about Magnum P.I.:

Enjoy great pics of Ian Anthony Dale and his cute son promoting Hugo Boss clothes for Father's Day!
If you have a hubby, boyfriend or son, check out the link to the Boss online store included in Ian's Instagram post. I wasn't going to share this post, at first, because I usually avoid sharing photos with the actors' children in them but since it's a "sponsored ad", it absolutely makes sense to share it. So here it is:

A look back at the 200th episode with McDanno and Noelani!
This H50 episode (9.07) was chosen by fans as the no. 2 of the best episodes of Season 9 in the recent survey for the latest Five-0 Redux blog. As mentionned before, the episode was my no. 1.

The McGarrett collage of the day shows him in H50 ep. 9.23!

Welcome to Julie Benz in Germany! H50 fans remember her as Abby Dunn who went back to California with Chin Ho Kelly at the end of Season 7!
It's funny that Julie is in Germany at the same time as Daniel who's filming here at the Bavaria Filmstudios in Munich. They could have a little reunion if Julie comes to sunny Munich, too. She was here 2 years ago for the Comic Con. She's currently up north in cold Hamburg though. Here's a picture she posted:

Don't miss the Five-0 Redux blog later today - For Fathers' Day, the blog is about real fathers and "surrogate fathers"!
The blog will focus on selected storylines from Season 9. It's about Danno as a true, caring father worrying about Gracie after her accident. I've always absolutely loved Daddy Danno - He's the best.
The blog is also about Joe White who not only called Steve "son" repeatedly but was a bit like a "surrogate father" for Steve after his own dad sent him away to the mainland to protect him because he falsely believed that his wife had been killed. Well, we all know that mother Doris faked her own death, which is something I will never understand, to be honest. But I find it even harder to understand why Doris and her much too loyal friend Joe kept lying to Steve even after he had grown up and would have deserved to find out the truth - and not from Wo Fat and after repeatedly getting tortured and losing his real father John because of all of Doris' lies.
Anyway - I think the blog will be quite interesting, so look for it later today on this page:
https://www.staradvertiser.com/category/five-0-redux/

H50's Kamekona obviously has a huge fan in Germany! "Jack's Tasty Foodtrucks" has built a replica of the famous shrimp truck and sells Hawaiian food at foodtruck festivals!

JUNE 16, 2019: Have a Sunny Sunday!

This collage with a look back at some memorable H50 episodes with Steve & Joe fits in with the latest Five-0 Redux blog:
Joe was introduced in ep. 2.01 when poor Steve was in prison for a murder that Wo Fat had committed. Joe also led the rescue mission in ep. 2.10 to save Steve who had been kidnapped by Wo Fat. Joe also helped when poor Danno was in prison in Colombia in ep. 5.18. The final picture is from ep. 9.10 in which Joe White died.

Some pics of Ian Anthony Dale at the International Festival de Télévision in Monte Carlo - shared by him on Instagram:
Don't miss the text he wrote in this post. He noticed a lot of aloha for H50 in France and I'm not surprised because the show has a big fanbase there - and in other parts of Europe, too, such as here in Germany :-)
https://www.instagram.com/p/BywHpl8jsnW/

Happy Fathers' Day to all the daddies working on H50!
Daddy Danno resp. Scotty is a father both on and off screen, so he seemed like the perfect choice for the collage.

A message from the Alex O'Loughlin Fans for Organ Donation for World Blood Donor Day (which was on Friday):
Actually, the blood donation itself only takes about 10 minutes but you'll spend another 15-30 minutes eating, drinking and "recovering" from the donation before you head home - and, of course, it takes some time to get to wherever you donate blood.
There is a huge and constant need for donated blood because it's not only used to compensate the loss of blood caused by major injuries from accidents. It's also essential for patients who suffer from blood diseases like anaemia, sickle-cell disease etc.
Find out how it works in this British video:

Happy Monday with Steve & Co. in H50 ep. 9.22 - just a collage I still had "in stock"!

P.S.: There will be fewer updates this week since my sister is visiting from Seattle - and there'll be no updates for a couple of days later this week when we are back home with my parents celebrating our dad's 80th birthday. No worries, it's just a short break :-)
 

JUNE 18, 2019:

Unfortunately, there's NO happy H50 Night for German fans today :-(
Sat.1 changed its schedule at short notice. They were going to show H50 ep. 8.06 but, instead, there will be a second episode of "Lethal Weapon". Since I watched filming for H50 ep. 8.06 back in 2017, I decided to repost this collage. I thought you might enjoy a look back. Just ignore me and enjoy the actors in the pics :-)

Happy Birthday to Meaghan, the awesome No. 1 female of H50!
The photo of her with her dog Bug is my own. She was super-nice when I met her in Hawaii - both at the SOTB red carpet, as well as on the day I took the photos of her and Bug. I love her on the show and am so glad she joined the cast two years ago!

Take a look back at the women's self-defense class with Alex and Egan Inoue a few weeks ago!

JUNE 23, 2019: Have a Sunny Sunday!

Here's the new Five-0 Redux blog about best guest actors on Season 9 of H50!
The related collage focuses on guest actress Nazneen Contractor who brought us some very funny scenes involving Steve. Since my fansite followers didn't get any Alex/Steve collages in four days, I chose these pictures intentionally for the first collage after my mini-vacation.

Keep your fingers crossed for actor Tim Lounibos who's hoping for an Emmy nomination for his guest-appearance in H50 ep. 9.18!
Of course, he's included in the latest Five-0 Redux blog about best guest-actors so it's a good time to repost this collage with pics of him as Mr. Chen!

Happy Tuesday with a look back at H50 ep. 9.18 with guest-star Joan Collins!
Of course, Joan is included in the latest Five-0 Redux blog about best guest-stars in Season 9 of the show.

A great photo of Peter with H50 guest-star Joan Collins - They met a couple of years ago in Monte Carlo!
This photo which Peter reposted today fits in perfectly with my last collage dedicated to Joan as Danno's mother in H50 ep. 9.18.

R.I.P. Beth Chapman - She had a small guest-role in H50 ep. 3.18 with her husband Dog, the bounty hunter!
To be honest, I had never really cared about these two until I met them at last year's SOTB premiere. They were just super-friendly and greeted me warmly with a handshake as if they'd known me for years. I was actually a bit embarassed because I couldn't think of anythng to say or to ask them. It's so sad to hear that Beth died leaving behind several children and her loving husband. Here's an article about her incl. a video by Hawaii News Now:

Don't miss Wendie's new Magnum Reloaded blog about Zachary Knighton and his Magnum P.I. character Rick!
I enjoyed talking to Zach at last year's SOTB where he told me that he'd give a "fresh touch" to his Rick since it wouldn't make sense to try and play Rick like Larry Manetti did.

JUNE 30, 2019:

Have a Sunny Sunday with Steve McGarrett - but not as hot as here in Germany!
It's been really hot here lately. I'm trying not to spend too much time on the computer to avoid overheating - both of the computer and myself. With no A/C and no shades on the windows, it gets too hot in my apartment. So no new collages today but an old one that fits in well with the weather. I would absolutely love to be Steve in these pictures and to have an ocean or pool nearby :-)
P.S.: I'm looking forward to lower temperatures in a few days ("lower" means below 30 degrees Celsius - whatever that means in Fahrenheit).

Check out the new Five-0 Redux blog about the Season 9 villains on H50 - Here it is:
https://www.staradvertiser.com/2019/06/29/features/five-0-redux/five-0-redux-hawaii-five-0-baddies-fight-to-fill-void-of-series-villain/

Here's a collage with H50 baddie Aaron Wright - one of the villains that the latest Five-0 Redux blog is about:
And, yes, I managed to make a few collages for this week despite the heat.
