The show has received generally positive reviews from critics. Metacritic gave season one of the show a 66 out of 100 aggregate score based on reviews from 29 critics. Rotten Tomatoes gave season one a score of 74% based on 23 reviews. The site's consensus calls it: "A brisk, slick reboot of an old favorite, Hawaii Five-0's picturesque locales and attractive cast make for pleasurable viewing." On May 19, 2010, The Honolulu Advertiser offered an opinion about the new version: "A smart script, slick production values and maybe a splash of nostalgia got the remake of Hawaii Five-O placed on the CBS prime-time lineup this fall," but went on to add, "it takes more than a brand name to capture…

neutral · AI labelView post →The new MacGyver series, the new Magnum P.I. series, and the new Hawaii Five-0 series have all done cross-over episodes with each other. That means they all exist as "real" people in each others' universe; i.e. the same universe. In this essay I will..

positive · AI labelView post →In the HAWAII FIVE-0 episode “Nine, Ten, You’re Dead,” the inestimable Moses Gunn plays a punch-drunk fighter who smashes the hand of a young up-and-comer. It’s a show in which the climax consists of a monologue, delivered affectingly by Mr. Gunn. Such a great actor. Wish I'd seen his Shakespeare.

positive · AI labelView post →Hawaii Five-0 & Magnum P.I. reboots were connected to the same universe due to the EP of those shows who turn out to be a POS,They did crossover a few times and even after H50 ended those characters from that universe still showed up on Magnum but I guess when the show moved from CBS to NBC...Yep.
neutral · AI labelView post →It's a way better show but it's similar to how Walter White in Breaking Bad is really just a 1970s Hawaii Five-0 villain that they went and made the protagonist of an Emmy-winning drama.
neutral · AI labelView post →In spite of the many, many things on my watchlist that I really ought to start (Ted Lasso, Severance, Silo) I’m… not doing that. Instead, it’s back to 1997 and season 1, episode 1 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Best opening theme of any TV show, ever. Firefly second, Hawaii Five-0 third. Don’t @ me.

It was a better ending than a lot of my favorite shows have gotten. But still GRRing about it. Must go consume much fix-it fic now.

neutral · AI labelView post →The big TV at the laundromat was showing an episode from Hawaii Five-0. I listened/watched with 5% of my brain as I folded laundry. The show ran from 1968-1980. This episode was from 1976. It was slow, clumsy, and boring. It was also racist and sexist. There was one non-white person in the episode.
negative · AI labelView post →I grew up watching Dragnet and Adam-12 and Hawaii Five-0. Not long ago I watched an old Hawaii Five-0 that dealt with reality of rape in a way that Law & Order SVU wouldn't until many years later. There was also Emergency that while not a crime show, was the forerunner of ER and The Pitt.
positive · AI labelView post →My vote? Hawaii Five-0! I hunted down this clip specifically, because when they recorded it for the reboot of the show, they got many of the original session musicians. Look at these middle aged folks killing it! I should be asleep, but instead I am compelled to SHAKE IT. youtu.be/fmj_n91bUt4
positive · AI labelView post →I mean, yeah there’s a reason most TV shows did not survive long enough to get streaming. like in the 60s, the only shows I really know that still have some streaming popularity are Hawaii Five-0 and Star Trek. Sure there’s older series like the Andy Griffin show and leave it to Beaver, but
neutral · AI labelView post →not good. But I have a habit of watching a shallow show on saturday mornings. while it was on, it was the Hawaii Five-0 remake. Then the Magnum PI remake. Bad shows but entertaining enough to pet my cats to. as a Florida Noir fan, it fits this role for me. But I don’t endorse it. it tries too hard
negative · AI labelView post →A couple more. Hawaii Five-0 (which I believe is still on), & Van Der Valk. Both series where the scripts, to me, are dire, & the protagonist looks like they are about 18-years-old. 🙂
negative · AI labelView post →As someone who used to love criminal minds and the show Rizzoli and Isles and even Hawaii Five-0- there are way too many cop shows. And so many of them truly have cops being evil at their jobs but because we like the character we don’t notice or recognize it for what it is.
negative · AI labelView post →OK, OK you got me on this one. My mother would lose her mind. If she missed Hawaii Five-0 literally would lose her mind. The whole day was scheduled around her watching the show.

neutral · AI labelView post →The Shield is... not a background show. Way too much nuance. Nothing against the shows here, but you need quantity procedurals. Hawaii Five-0 (10 seasons) CSI: Miami (10 seasons) NCIS: Los Angeles (14 seasons)
neutral · AI labelView post →There's an original Hawaii Five-0 they never show because somebody died copying a hanging in the episode; I can only hope the same precaution was taken with the "foosaholic" episode of My Wife and Kids.
neutral · AI labelView post →The show may have gotten fans to read Hume, Locke, and Rousseau for nonexistent clues. Ben Linus would go on to build an AI surveillance machine in another show. A better show. Miles appeared a couple times. Locke went on to be in Hawaii Five 0 as did Hurley. There was a tie-in book called Bad Twin.
