“Hawaii Five-0″ at Comic-Con

July 27th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Hawaii, Pop Culture, Television

One of the highlights for me at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con was the preview for the new “Hawaii Five-0” reboot on CBS. The event featured stars Daniel Dae Kim, who gets to stay in Hawaii following his six-year turn on “LOST,” and Grace Park, a reboot veteran from “Battlestar Galactica.” Also on hand were [...]

LOST Time

November 1st, 2007 · 3 Comments · Hawaii, Lost, Pop Culture

For the “LOST” crew, Halloween wasn’t so much spooky as it was slippery. Rain washed away some of the momentum during the Chinatown/Koreatown location shoot, as on-again, off-again downpours stalled filming several times. The crew took it all in stride, though, standing at the ready with umbrellas and towels to dry off people and props. [...]
