Grace Park answers fan questions!

Here’s a short clip of Grace park answering fan questions submitted to CBS eyelab.  She talks about the Hawaiian language she’s learned and the most dangerous scene she filmed.

Grace Park gives rare interview on CBC Human Library Live Online

Lauren O’Neil of Canadian media outlet CBC got a rare interview with Hawaii Five-0′s Grace Park, who talks about being in sci-fi, her rise in acting, and being Korean.

Alex has shoe envy, talks about life with baby and almost becoming Bond

From the fine people at Static Multimedia, @terrysagirl tipped me off to a brilliant interview with Alex O’Loughlin.  Here’s a snippet, but be sure to check out the whole thing.  Who knew he and Scott didn’t get along at first?

Scott Caan told me that you didn’t get along straight away because in his words, “your egos bumped a bit in the beginning.” And you’re referred to as a “bromance” now, so how did that come to be?

Well I think as an actor you meet different people all the time, you work with different people all the time, you do movies, you do shows and stuff, you move around. The thing with Scott and I, we’re both alpha males. We’re actually born only like about three hours apart, same day, same month, same everything, but on different parts of the planet. We’re actually like mirror images of each other in some ways and completely opposite in the others, and I think part of that was also finding out our place in the show and working out, you know, we’re the two leads of the show, but on the journey that we’ve taken and the bromantic nature of the characters, there’s a bromance between McGarrett and Danno, and it sort of has transferred our bromance together as Scott and Al, it’s kind of transferred onto the show as well. We’ve become good mates. We spend a lot of time together and it’s great. I’m very lucky to have someone like him to work with every day.

Update: Hawaii Five-0 promos “Lana I Ka Moana ”

After viewing this latest promo, I have one word – Eek!  I can’t wait for tomorrow’s Hawaii Five-0 episode, and I hope you’ll join in for the fun!

Alex O’Loughlin thanks the people of Hawaii

Many of you may have seen part of Alex O’Loughlin’s speech from the recent Sunset on the Beach premiere, but thanks to Teddy “TC Hawaii” of Island 98.5, we have even more of it for you.  O’Loughlin who plays Steve McGarrett in the CBS show Hawaii Five-0, was alternately humorous and heartfelt as he spoke to the audience, and the residents of Hawaii.  The video quality isn’t the best, but it’s still enjoyable.

Mahalo, Teddy for the shout-out to 50undercover.com and thanks to “Kathy with a K” from 93.9 Jamz for getting Alex to stick his tongue out!

Behind the scenes photos of Scott Caan and Daniel Dae Kim

Scott Caan and Daniel Dae Kim seemed to be feeling rather playful the day that Special Agent MMR and friends watched Hawaii Five-0 filming last month. We hope you enjoy the photos.

Up Next on Hawaii Five-0: “Lana I Ka Moana”

This is an episode that I’ve really been looking forward to, and not only because we get to see hot men in shorts.  (Yeah, I’m shallow, so what?)  In spite of Danny’s fear of the sea, somehow Steve manages to get him out on the ocean blue, where they’re hijacked by pirates, including bad-guy extraordinaire, Todd Stashwick.  Not that the real Todd isn’t a good guy, he’s just usually cast as the villain, and yet still somehow manages to draw the viewer in.  With that talent, it’s no wonder he pops up everywhere on our TV screens.  You may also recognize Michael McGrady (Southland) as a not-so-nice Coast Guard captain.

We’ll also see another “Lost” alum in this episode:  Cynthia Watros who played the ill-fated Libby Smith.  Well, I guess pretty much everyone on “Lost” was ill-fated, weren’t they?  Libby’s sudden death came as a huge shock to viewers who had embraced her strength and compassion.  I wonder what the odds are that Cynthia’s character Katie, will survive Hawaii Five-0?

“Lana I Ka Moana” was written by Elwood Reid who left Five-0 recently, and I believe this is his parting gift to viewers. We wish him the best of luck in his new adventures.

Some of you may know that when I talk about my favorite Hawaii Five-0 directors, it’s always a toss-up between Larry Teng and co-executive producer, Steve Boyum.  Boyum is at the helm of this one, so it should be exciting.  Now, on to the “boatgument” please!

“Lana I Ka Moana”

Tom Arnold takes a trip to Hawaii Five-0

Executive producer Peter Lenkov sure knows how to tease the Hawaii Five-0 fans with promises of epicness.  Epicisity? Apparently neither of those are actual words, but I think you get my drift.  And I’m not talking about Tom Arnold appearing in this episode, but rather Danny and Steve teaming up with a Girl Scout troop.  Hopefully, before the villainous Arnold shows up, we’ll be treated to a few laughs.

From Keck’s Exclusives at TV Guide

Tom Arnold will appear on Hawaii Five-0

Mixing Tom Arnold and Girl Scouts can’t be a good thing, but CBS’s Hawaii Five-0 is still giving it a whirl.

Executive producer Peter Lenkov tells me exclusively that Roseanne’s ex will appear as the villain in this season’s ninth episode. “Danny and McGarrett go on a Girl Scout outing and come face to face with Tom,” teases Lenkov.

The big question of course is why the detectives are even on this Girl Scout trip. Per Lenkov, “Danny’s daughter is a Girl Scout and he invites McGarrett to come along to teach the girls survival skills out in the wild.”

But can any amount of skill training really ever prepare one for a wild Tom Arnold encounter?

Vanessa Marcil to appear on Hawaii Five-0

Thanks to twitter, we just received word that soap star Vanessa Marcil in on Oahu filming Hawaii Five-0.  I believe the show is still shooting episode 3.08, which is titled “Wahine’inoloa.”  Marcil is an award winning actress, best known  for “General Hospital”  and “Las Vegas,” where she co-starred with Scott’s dad, James Caan.
