Let chips fall for 'Five-O' TV watching game

Just in time for the season finale of “Hawaii Five-O,” Guy With a Remote rolls out TV watching game for the series.
“Five-O” may not always be the most believable show on TV, but it is the most enthusiastically fun show to watch.
Guy is especially fond of the bro-mance between McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) and Danny (Scott Caan). Forget the crime of the week, the show is all about their conversations in the car.
Typically TV watching games are drinking games that involve everyone gathering with the favorite (usually alcoholic) drink in and sipping, chugging or finishing depending on what happens on screen.
Over-imbibing isn’t cool and we don’t want anyone to get alcohol poisoning, so our game uses chocolate chips instead. You can substitute peanut butter or butterscotch chips or any other candy you prefer. The prizes are up to you.
You may wish to play along as your favorite character, or be the entire team (for that you may need a bigger bag of chips). The season finale airs 10 tonight on CBS.
