One of TV's longest-running crime dramas (only LAW & ORDER would surpass its record-setting 12-year run), the 1960s - 70s television series HAWAII FIVE-O captivated audiences with its smart and stylish take on the standard policie formula. Filmed entirely on the Hawaiian Islands, the action-packed series followed the crime-fighting adventures of an elite state-police squad anchored by quintessential tough guy Steve McGarrett (Jack Lord) and his detective team of Danny Danno Williams (James MacArthur), Chin Ho Kelly (Kam Fong), and Kono Kalakaua (Zulu). Almost single-handedly rewriting the book on police dramas, the series distinguished itself with intricate plotting, inventive cinematography, exotic locations, and, of course, an indelible theme song and timeless catchphrase (Book 'em, Danno!). This collection presents Seasons 1-7 of this iconic series.

Hawaii Five-O, when TV was TV!
I am presently viewing Season 3 of the 7 I purchased (as a package), and am not disappointed! These high quality discs bring back so many fond memories of that fabulous TV series. And it's not just about Jack Lord, who carries the show expertly and with authority. The regular cast and the guest actors are also top shelf. Most of them you've never heard of, though you will notice several younger guest stars who later became very famous in TV and in the movie theaters. This series is a look-back at the way it was in the 70's - the huge cars, the clothing, the lingo, and the overall style. And the Hawaii Five-O theme music is thundering and exciting. It was a memorable era. I look forward to each and every episode. =Ken
