Love your website. It's AWESOME!! Hawaii Five-O is currently shown on TV1 here in Australia and I tape every episode. My husband and 3 children think I'm nutty. Very grateful that there are other 'nutty' people out there. Keep up the great work!!

Since 1968 Hawaii Five-0 has been my favorite TV show. Jack Lord and James MacArthur are the greatest. For all of you Hawaii Five-0 fans out there, go to www.findagrave.com and look under "famous persons" and leave Jack Lord a note. It would be a nice tribute to him.

Check out this article today in the Honolulu Star Bulletin! Sounds like a bit of progress, no? Star Bulletin, 9-25-01 http://starbulletin.com/2001/09/24/features/index.html Closing in on 'Five-0' film Though it's still a ways from beginning production, "Hawaii Five-0," the film, is alive. Roger Towne, who wrote the script for "The Natural" and was the original writer of the Al Pacino film, "The Farm,' is working with producer George Litto in shopping a treatment for the big screen transfer of the series "Hawaii Five-0." Litto, and the widow of show creator Leonard Freeman prevailed in a 21-month arbitration battle with CBS over film rights to the story about the island adventures of no-nonsense cop Steve McGarrett, played by Jack Lord from 1968 to 1980. "It's a major franchise," Litto said last week. "It's the kind of television show that became part of the fabric of society. McGarrett became the symbol, the epitome of the tough, honest, dedicated cop." Litto said the film's budget is in the $50 million to $70 million dollar range.The story would be international in scope, says Litto, who wrote the script with Avery Duff. They will be looking for actors to play the president of the United States, premiere of Japan, and leaders of Pacific Rim countries including China and Australia.

Re: I see someone says he has the original car from the series for sale, but I remember someone in I think Chicago also said he found the original car and restored it. Anny comments? Michael Driver ft.

Please note that the public defender in the episode starring Christopher Walken is played by the now famous ABC Sports announcer Al Michaels. Al was broadcasting minor-league baseball in Hawaii at the time

I loved watching Hawaii Five O, and I really miss it, but I do think that after watching Jack Lord in another program where he played the bad guy he was so much better playing this role, he came across as really evil, he was excellent. Sorry can't remember the name of the film.
