Review of Aloha

Hawaii Five-0: Aloha (2020)
Season 10, Episode 22
1/10
We could have had it all
6 April 2020
Warning: Spoilers
The show was a hot mess of amazing and terrible (though more terrible than amazing) and relied mostly on lovable characters, amazing actors, action, the breathtaking views and Steve and Danny's relationship.

And in an episode that established that Danny is the most important person in Steve's life, where he pleaded for his life in exchange of his own, where he finally acknowledged he wants to find peace for himself. With all this you want me to believe that he suddenly does a complete 180 and decides to leave Danny, who is hurt, vulnerable and alone, leave his family and his dog to traipse around the world? And to add insult to injury to do it with Catherine? A woman who is basically his mother with slightly darker hair? Who hurt and abandoned him every chance she got? Who we pretty much haven't heard of for the last five years except for some random forced appearances?

I haven't seen such thorough character assassination since Avengers: Endgame.

This is not how you do a series finale. This is not how you say good bye to beloved characters, show appreciation to actors who poured their all into their work, show respect to fans who gave you love for 10 years. This is how you spit in all their faces and ensure that they won't touch any of your projects with a ten foot pole.

We all deserved so much better.
