SPECIAL: "This particular series revolves around some sort of flop-house/communal residence in Hawaii, where some guys are Firefighters, and others are just flotsam. Then there's some Hawaiian houseboy who everyone treats like a frat brother they love, but no one seems to relate to or have any dialogue with. In fact, beyond the very high-level and insignificant one sentence background stories on each character, none of them seem to be fleshed out enough to understand WHY they share such a bond".
