Episode 02-01: Monday, 9/19/11
Thanks in part to the season premiere of Two and a Half Men, this series debuted to a healthy 3.4 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 12.19 million viewers. It was first in its timeslot.
Year-to-year, the show was down by nearly 15% in the demo (3.9) and 16% in overall viewership (14.2 million). However, this was a marked improvement from the season finale which attracted a 2.7 in the demo and 10.41 million. It’s a good start to the season and hopefully they’ll hold onto some of these additional viewers.
Reference point: The 2010-11 season averaged a 2.9 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 10.91 million viewers.

What do you think? Do you like the Hawaii Five-0 TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a third season?
I’ve recently just got into it but I’ve had a marathon to catch up and I absolutely LOVE this show. I do wish they’d wrap this story up with Wo Fat and Steve’s family though/get rid of Terry O’Quinn. The guy just gets on my nerves. PLEASE RENEW
CAN WE PLEASE HAVE SEASON THREE OF HAWAII 5:0. DANNY & STEVE MAKE GREAT TEAM. PLEASE GIVE ANOTHER SEASON CHANCE..
renew it for another season, let the writers see what the comments are being made and think outside the box, that the viewers just might be right. Networks are to quick to cancel shows.
Please renew…… I really relax watching this show, actually I find to short. so there , i’m hooked.
Renew it !! I love it..I hang out for every Wednesday night here in Sydney to see it.. I love Alex…& the rest of the team but get rid of Lori ..she’s as useful as tits on a bull. She is dragging the show down !!! The kidnapper had a chance to shoot her but noooo she had to keep talking.
I love the show. A great mix of action, suspense, humor and drama. I DVR it every week in case I’m not home. It is one of my favorites. I hope it picks up another season!
renewed hawaii five o ep 2.10 is so far the best ep in season 2.
The show is fantastic, but I agree that Lori is a complete WASTE, just like that other girl that they brought in last season. I was so glad when they got rid of her, but then they had to go bring in another one…ack. Okay, you wanted someone in the team to take Kono’s place for a few eps while she was ‘suspended’, fine, but now Kono is back, so DITCH the extra baggage, already!
I have no problem with bringing in a new character. But I think they should have brought in either a “real” hawaiian or an African-American character to balance out the facial demographics.
Plus…bring back the full length opening titles music!

This show should be renewed for another season…I love Hawaii Five O…my favorite show…I watch it on the internet…I am a huge fan…please don’t cancel this show..please.
Remove the Lori character or just bring her in now and then and everything will be OK. It seems like she is now the main character with all the screen time. I’ve really tried to like her and she seems like a nice person but her acting is too “mechanical” and difficult to watch. On almost all posts I’ve seen on the show, no one seems to like the addition of Lori. Whether the powers that be will recognize that or not remains to be seen, but if the ratings keep dropping, I’m afraid there will not be a season… Read more »
I agree with you about Lori…she brings nothing to the show…they need to get rid of her. I hope it doesn’t cancel.
The show was much better the first season. It’s painful to watch now. To cover up for the awful story lines, they are filling up the show with ancient celebrities – so Boring! CBS should not renew Hawaii Five-O for a third season.
This is one of the few good shows out there. The characters Steve McGarrett and Danny Williams’ arguements every week are better than any married couple on television. And Grace Park is HOT….even if she doesn’t have much of a chest. Keep it!!!
I’d definitely keep H50 for Season 3. It’s better suited on Tuesday following NCIS & NCIS:LA. Also, I’d like to make a note that the Episode 02-04 (Monday, 10/10/11) and
2.7 in the demo (-16% week-to-week change) were due to the show House being pushed back to 10pm slot due to baseball playoff or is it World Series? H50 + Castle + House are all strong shows that pull very tough competitions.
keep it keep it
