Hawaii Five-0 is a contemporary take on the classic series about
a new elite federalized task force whose mission is to wipe out
the crime that washes up on the Islands' sun-drenched beaches.
Detective Steve McGarrett, a decorated Naval officer-turned-cop,
returned to Oahu to investigate his father's murder and stayed
after Hawaii's former governor persuaded him to head up the new
team: his rules, no red tape and full blanket authority to hunt
down the biggest "game" in town.
Joining McGarrett is Detective Danny "Danno" Williams, a relocated
ex-New Jersey cop - a working man in paradise who prefers
skyscrapers to the coastline - but who's committed to keeping the
Islands safe for his young daughter; Chin Ho Kelly, an ex-Honolulu
police detective and former protégé of McGarrett's father who was
wrongly accused of corruption; Dr. Max Bergman, the quirky coroner;
Chin's cousin, Kono Kalakaua, a beautiful and fearless native; and
Captain Lou Grover, who formerly headed Hawaii's SWAT unit.
Joining them is Jerry Ortega, a former classmate of Chin's and the
Island's local conspiracy theorist.
The state's brash FIVE-0 unit, who may spar and jest among themselves,
remain determined to eliminate the seedy elements from the 50th state
