Enjoyed the original as it appeared on tv many years ago starting 1968. Cast is super excellent and love the Hawaiian flavor to the script. Location is beautiful, Hawaii in the late 1960's, even the city scapes are eye candy. Minus the excessive graphic violence and language used these days on tv. "ain't no big thing Bro". Better without it. Great cop/detective show.

While the first season of Hawaii Five-0 had a somewhat slower pace, the Second Season really sets the standard for the following seasons. The action is solid, locations exotic and the women are beautiful! Exceptional story lines and excellent acting make Season Two a "MUST HAVE" for any collector of television police series. Well worth the price of admission, Join Steve, Danny, Chin and Kano for some crime fighting "Hawaiian Style"- FIVE STARS ("Book em' Danno")!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was a devoted watcher of the series when it aired on TV. Made me want to vacation in Hawaii someday. Watching these DVD's brings it all back. The quality of the transfer is excellent-- when I pause playback, I don't hardly see any indication that this is a transfer from film. easy to navigate, pleasure to watch. Highly reccomend to anyone. I'll be buying the rest of the sets as soon as i'm finished watching this one. Hope that seasons 7 thru 12 are produced soon!
It's easy to see why this show was on for 12 years. The stories are still good today. Jack Lord plays the intense by-the-book Steve McGarrett that everyone respects and all criminals fear. He has his steady workforce by his side to bring everyone to justice. With the great location, beautiful girls, and great plot lines - no wonder CBS is bringing this back in an updated version.
Watching this show is like being on vacation. Too often cop dramas take place in crowded, dirty cities (Kojak, Law and Order, NYPD Blue, Hill Street and just about every other cop show) but this one takes place in beautiful Hawaii. Watching it clears your mind from the grime and stress of everyday life. That is why this show lasted over 10 seasons. Filmed entirely on location in Hawaii.....you can't beat it.
