SEASON OVERVIEW:
Hawaii Five-0 is a contemporary take on the original 1968–1980 television series about a new elite federalized task force created by the Governor of Hawaii to elucidate serious crimes. In the driver’ seat there is Lieutenant Commander Steve McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin, The Shield), a former Navy SEAL with time spent in Office of Naval Intelligence who returns to Oahu to investigate his father’s murder and decides to stay after Governor Pat Jameson (Jean Smart, 24) persuades him to head up the new team and lets him have his full swing… Being able to speak Hawaiian and Chinese fluently while also knowing how to lay his adversaries low using different techniques, Steve McGarrett usually believes that “the ends justify the means”.
Joining the team is Detective Sergeant Daniel “Danny” (or “Danno”) Williams (Scott Caan, Entourage), an ex-New Jersey cop, and Steve’s high school friends, Chin Ho Kelly (Daniel Dae Kim, Lost), an ex-Honolulu Police Detective, and Kono Kalakaua (Grace Park, Battlestar Galactica), a rookie who is also Chin Ho Kelly’s cousin. Danny Williams decided to transfer from the Newark Police Department when his ex-wife, Rachel, moved to Hawaii with their daughter Grace. A man who prefers skyscrapers to the coastline, he likes to play “by the book”, but is committed to keeping the Islands safe for his 8 year old daughter. Accused of corruption and relegated to a federal security patrol, Chin Ho Kelly was also a protégé of Steve’s father. As the series progresses, it is revealed that a mole within the HPD threw discredit on him. Last but not least, a former professional surfer, Officer Kono Kalakaua is eager to establish herself among the department’s elite.
This brash new unit is determined to lay the axe to the root of the tree… Enjoy the show!
