Not a spectacular 100th, but not bad.

On the good side, Sang is back, any episode is made funnier by him showing up. Unfortunately, that's really the only good thing, though McGarret's fantasies are fun.

Clearly most of the reviewers have never seen the show, other wise they'd no that these aren't flashbacks. Its mostly fun seeing where McGarret thinks his friends would be if things had gone differently. Its not always flattering, and his fantasy Danny is rather strange, but its definitely interesting. Oh, and some characters are waste in the flashback, i'm really not sure why Jerry, Lou or Jenna are in it, there was no need for them.

Oh, and there's two bloopers. Wo Fat's scars might not be one, but since he got those in the attack in the main timeline, it seems strange that he has them in the alternate past well before said attack occurred. The other is the car, Danno's got the wrong one. External shots are likely stock footage, as is one or two of the interior shots, but most show them in high back SS seats. The current Camaro is an SS, not the first one.

Overall, this episode isn't worth going out of your way for, but if like me you're streaming the whole series, definitely catch it. If you're trying to put a short list of key episodes together, watch it. If your just trying to find something to watch, i wouldn't bother.
