Is Hawaii Five-0 cancelled or renewed? Imi loko ka ‘uhane and you will find the answer. Yes, it’s true. The Hawaii Five-0 TV show has been renewed for season eight on CBS.
Airing on the CBS television network, Hawaii Five-0 is a reboot of the original CBS TV show, which ran from 1968 to 1980. The police procedural stars Alex O’Loughlin, Scott Caan, Daniel Dae Kim, Grace Park, Masi Oka, Lauren German, Michelle Borth, Chi McBride, and Jorge Garcia.
The seventh season of Hawaii Five-0 is averaging a 1.20 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 9.52 million viewers. Compared to season six, that’s up by 5% in the demo and up by 9% in total viewers, so the renewal was expected. Check out how this action drama stacks up against the other CBS TV shows.
