CBS books a new version of the classic "Hawaii Five-0" series, with Alex O'Loughlin in the lead role as Detective Steve McGarrett and Scott Caan portraying Danno. The detectives are part of an elite task force whose mission is to eliminate crime on the beaches of the Aloha State. Assisting McGarrett and Danno are Capt. Lou Grover, who formerly headed Hawaii's SWAT unit; Jerry Ortega, the islands' local conspiracy theorist; and Tani Rey, a bold, recent police academy graduate. The brash unit spar and jest among themselves but remain determined to eliminate the seedy elements from the nation's 50th state.

Chuck Barney San Jose Mercury News There was room for some contemporary improvement. With that mission accomplished, "Hawaii Five-0" just might be one remake with staying power. Rated: B+ Mar 25, 2019 Full Review Linda Holmes NPR Hawaii Five-0 should be fun, not grim, and that's what Caan brings to the table... He gives the show an enormous lift, to the point where it would probably be unwatchable without him but borders on enjoyable, at times, in his presence. Mar 25, 2019 Full Review Emily St. James AV Club Everything any TV viewer could want in a time-waster. No one's going to mistake it for profound television, but it accomplishes something almost more rare: It becomes exquisitely paced, indelibly fun television. Mar 25, 2019 Full Review Michelle Carlbert TV Equals Overall, I really liked the pilot episode and basically, Hawaii Five-0 had me at Aloha. Mar 9, 2020 Full Review Jim Garner TV Fanatic I really enjoyed the new version of this classic program. It appears that CBS kept all the parts of the original show that worked and updated the parts needed to be modernized. Rated: 3.8/5 Mar 25, 2019 Full Review R.L. Shaffer IGN Movies The show is damn good, with great cinematography, solid performances and slick, stylized action and drama. If you dig cop dramas, you're bound to love this show. Rated: 8/10 Mar 25, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Whitney S We watch this every night, it's a good mix of seriousness and fun. Episode wraps up in the hour, but keeps up a long term story arc also. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/27/22 Full Review steve d The 4 stars are great but the stories are often a bit predictable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Exactly what you want network tv for - good locations, decent production quality, passable stories. Decent.
