What happens

Hawaii Five-0 is an American police procedural drama television series developed for CBS by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Peter M. Lenkov. It is a reboot of the 1968–1980 series (the original series had the letter "O" in its title, the 2010 series has the number zero), which also aired on CBS. The series starred Alex O'Loughlin and Scott Caan and centers around a fictional special police major crimes task force operating at the behest of the governor of Hawaii. It was produced by K/O Paper Products and 101st Street Television, initially in association with CBS Studios. The series premiered on September 20, 2010, airing for ten seasons, with the finale airing on April 3, 2020. Alongside O'Loughlin and Caan, the cast originally consisted of Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park, both of whom left after season seven. Other cast mates included Taryn Manning, Masi Oka, Lauren German, Michelle Borth, Chi McBride, Jorge Garcia, Meaghan Rath, Taylor Wily, Dennis Chun, Kimee Balmilero, Beulah Koale, Ian Anthony Dale and Katrina Law. The series aired on Mondays for its first three seasons. Beginning with season four, the program was moved to Fridays. The series takes place in the same fictional universe with fellow reboot series MacGyver and Magnum P.I., both of which were also developed by Peter M. Lenkov. The three shows have been collectively referred to as the "Lenkov-verse", and Hawaii Five-0 had crossover episodes with both of the others. The series also exists in the same fictional universe as the NCIS franchise by way of a crossover event with NCIS: Los Angeles. Hawaii Five-0 received praise for its modern take on the original series, and was a solid ratings performer for CBS at the time of its release. The series received several award nominations including a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor – Series, Miniseries or Television Film for Caan, and three Teen Choice Awards for Choice TV Action Show, Choice TV Action Actor for Dae Kim and Choice TV Action Actress for Park. In addition, the series also made a positive effect on the Hawaii economy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
