interesting post.
Toby has a grammatical issue, to wit:
"...Frenesi replies "Appreciate the comparison Zoyd, although as
you see I'm alone..."
(Am I wrong in thinking there should be a comma after "comparison?"  Is
there one in other editions)"

and I say that's one of those "ear" things.  The pacing of how she
says it has no comma.


But we were discussing Hawaii 5-0.  Like most high school pep bands,
I'm sure, the one I beeloonged to played their theme all over the
place.
Also the opening scenes with the surf were awesome.
Like Laura, I don't remember being a fan of the show itself, though.
I think that it was McGarrett who slapped some hippie and said "Now
_that_ is the sound of one hand clapping."  But that may have been
some other show.
He spent one whole episode chasing down a quack who was keeping some
lady from taking her approved anti-cancer treatments.  I found myself
in partial, though conflicted, sympathy with the quack. I'm pretty
sure that Don Ho appeared on a few episodes too.

On the whole, I liked Mannix a lot better.  And Rockford.
