A quick thought to point out. I've only seen a few episodes of the original H50. Ed Asner is playing the same character that he played in the original series 30+ years ago. And they are using footage from the original series here. Unless there is 2 Steve McGarrett's and 2 Danny Williams, the whole timeline doesn't make any sense incorporating a character from the original series here.

They ended up doing a good job letting Ed Asner's character span the two timelines. Just pushed McGarrett off as his dad being the one who booked him.

Pretty cool episode. I never watched the original series, but still found the plot device quite cool.

Probably one of the better episodes in a long time.I think this was a perfect example of H50 at it's strongest. Fun case and good banter between Steve and Danny.
I also agree that this was a very creative way to integrate the 2 H50 timelines together. The old footage was a nice touch. I liked August's line about a McGarrett arresting him 30 years ago with the little re-working for Steve's Dad.
The twist at the end was pretty cool. They did leave it open for August to return again.
at the Grenade B-Day cake.

Regarding Tony Todd (the Liberian), I did meet him at a local comic convention one time. He is a huge dude. He's all right when interacting with fans.
He's one of my favorite actors (from The Rock and 24), and I asked him what it's like working with Michael Bay - since there are many reports about how difficult it is to work with Bay. His answer was, "we have an understanding."
