Paused at the perfect moment while skimming Joseph Anderson streams for the "nailed it" clip.

Just to clear up any confusion about canon on Hawaii Five-0, I will list the facts here:
Steve's eyes are blue hazel. (Alex calls them "hazelly blue.")
Steve's parents are John and Doris.
Danny's parents are Eddie and Clara. His siblings are Matt, Stella (Eric's mother), and Bridgett.
In April 1992 (Steve was 16 and Mary was 10), Doris faked her death.
John told Mary and Steve that she was killed by a drunk driver.
Steve doesn't find out that his mother's "death" was actually murder until 1x11. Mary doesn't find out until somewhere between 1x11 and 1x13. She finds the pictures of the car bomb in 1x11, and in 1x13, we find out she was kidnapped because she had started asking questions about their mom's death.
After Doris' "death," Mary was sent to live with their Aunt Deb. Steve was sent to the Army and Navy Academy (ANA) in Carlsbad, California. Joe White (aka "Uncle Joe") helped get Steve into the school.
After graduating from ANA, Steve went to the Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, for 4 years.
After graduating from Annapolis, Steve was with Naval Intelligence for 5 years, and then he joined the SEALs for 6 years.
It is implied a few times throughout the series that Steve was a sniper.
When Steve came back to Hawaii after his father's murder, he transferred to the Reserves.
Steve is fluent in Mandarin and Hawaiian, and he can speak conversational Korean and Japanese. He understands Pashto, but he says he is rusty.
STEVE IS NOT STUPID. He is actually very smart. Plus, he was in Naval Intelligence. Intelligence is in the name.
Kono has met John McGarrett before.
Even after Chin was accused of being a dirty cop by IA, John McGarrett stayed his friend.
Both of Kono's parents are still alive, but her mom had an aneurysm, so she can't walk or talk.

Noelene and Jen have a very authentic sisterly bond, including getting into squabbles over who has to translate what’s on the telly to their parents. 😉
The Kims love their soaps, and are seen talking about soaps and soap stars. One of their favourite shows is Prisoner; an iconic Australian programme running on Channel Ten for eight seasons and 692 episodes between February 1979 and December 1986. Prisoner was a show centred in the fictional Wentworth Detention Centre, and focused on the many lives of the inmates and staff who lived and worked there. It was a unique programme, in the sense that it was mostly female lead, and it drew on themes of women’s incarceration, feminism, social reform, prison hierarchies from a female perspective and also included many LGBT+ characters who were portrayed in a complex and empathetic light. It was nominated for many Logie and Penguin Awards, was broadcast internationally, and had a legendary cast list far too huge to name.
In the 45 years since Prisoner began, it still has a massive cult following both domestically and internationally, and has had an enormous impact on especially its female and LGBT+ fan base, for its ability to never be afraid to be messy and unfiltered, and to show women as the complex and imperfect multifaceted individuals they are. It has enjoyed syndication worldwide, is available on many streamers, and has various online fan pages. It also spawned a modern-day reimagining of the classic simply titled Wentworth, which aired between 2013 and 2021, and has also garnered an equally strong following.
When I visited the ACMI back in March, they had a display on Prisoner and Wentworth, highlighting unit stills, audiovisual media and even props from the two show, and also information which tells the museum goers about the impact of both programmes. I must say I shuddered a bit seeing some of the makeshift shivs out of day-to-day objects!
Are you a fan of Prisoner and Wentworth? I did try Wentworth but it was far too intense for me. From what I’ve seen of it, I’m more of a Prisoner girl myself. I’m a sucker for an original, and for shows highlighting the female experience authentically! 💖🌟📺🇦🇺🏳️🌈
