TV show description:
This cop procedural is a re-imagining of the original longtime series that aired between 1968 and 1980 on CBS. The series focuses on a federalized task force designed to fight crime in Hawaii, and again includes the characters of Steve McGarrett, Danny “Danno” Williams, and Chin Ho Kelly.
Detective Steve McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin) is a decorated Naval officer-turned-cop. He returns to Oahu to investigate his father’s murder. While there, Hawaii’s Governor (Jean Smart) persuades him to head up the new team — with his rules, her backing, no red tape, and full authority to hunt down the biggest “game” in town.
It’s McGarrett’s aim to bring closure to his dad’s case, and to also repair his relationship with his estranged sister, Mary Ann (Taryn Manning). He’s also honoring his dad by restoring the old 1974 Mercury Marquis.
He’s joined on the new team by Detective Danny “Danno” Williams (Scott Caan), who has just relocated from New Jersey. He likes skyscrapers over the coastline but wants to keep the area safe for his eight-year-old daughter.
Detective Chin Ho Kelly (Daniel Dae Kim) is also part of the new team. He had been stuck on federal security patrol after being wrongly accused of corruption while part of the Honolulu Police Department.
The rookie in their group is Chin’s cousin, Detective Kona “Kono” Kalakaua (Grace Park). She’s eager to prove herself among the others.
The state’s brash new Five-0 unit, who may spar and joke among themselves, but they’re determined to eliminate the seedy elements from the 50th state.
Episode #240 — Aloha
Danny is abducted and badly wounded by Wo Fat’s wife, who is after the cypher Steve’s mother left him. Also, Steve finally solves the case his father left for him 10 years ago. Recurring cast members James Marsters (Victor Hesse), William Sadler (John McGarrett) and Mark Dacascos (Wo Fat) return.
First aired: April 3, 2020.

This show should not have been cancelled. There was always a lot of action; held your attention.
Bring the show back!!!
Pick a new commander, could be Danny William, or Adam Noshimuri, or bring again Chin Ho Kelly and Kono Kalakaua for example or something like that!!!!
Thanks, that’s my opinion, I’m very sad about this amazing show had finished
Bring it back!
renewed
I love the show Best one Ever I was to watch the original one with My Dad hope it returns
Awesome show! I think Cole should take over with Steve gone, and have him check in sometimes. I loved watching this show. It was the highlight of my week.
Great show! Just because one person leaves, everyone shouldn’t be out of a job. Pick a new commander. Continue the show. Great cast!
I wanted it to continue. LOVED it !!
I am sadden again that Hawaii Five O series ended. I love the original series and the present series. Please bring it back. The characters were great and the plots were great.. please bring it back. Thank tou.
OMG no no no I want it to continue. I am crying my eyes out now because we have watched this from the very beginning. I wished they could come back on. Maybe just take a small break and come back. It is like losing a part of your entire family.
Figures …the good shows never say on!!!!!
Sad to see the show go. It has been a staple every Friday night in my home. Both my Mom and I watched every episode. My Mom was a fan of the original series. I would have kept the show going even if Alex wanted to leave. There are so many great actors out there who could have played a lead role, heading up the 5-0 task force. Thank goodness I have every season on DVD box set. We will miss all of you. Mahalo for bringing both that Hawaiian aloha and ‘uhane into our homes every week. We wish… Read more »
How can u end a show with questions. I want to know if Steve and catharine finally end up together. I’ve been praying for that for years and then u leave it with them leaving town together. I just cant stop crying. This is the one show I look for to watching all week long. I just dont understand why u are not renewing the show??? Please tell me.
Hate to see this show end I have enjoyed both Hawaii Five O show’s with this one being my favorite.
I really love to watch Hawaii 5 O so did my youngest son. Really wish it would come back, even is Alex will not be returning. Sad to see it end.
