Hawaii Five-0

Right now you can watch Hawaii Five-0 in Australia on Netflix and BINGE, and in the US on Netflix and Paramount Plus Premium — and it earns its twists rather than manufacturing them. 10 seasons in, and the quality has not slipped. With 1,877 viewer ratings on TMDB, this is not a title flying under the radar. Alex O'Loughlin sets the tone, and the ensemble matches it scene for scene. Available now on Netflix — press play and find out why people keep recommending it.

Hawaii Five-0 arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. At its heart, Hawaii Five-0 understands what makes crime drama work — character first, plot second. Steve McGarrett returns home to Oahu, in order to find his father's killer. The governor offers him the chance to run his own task force (Five-0). Steve's team is joined by Chin Ho Kelly, Danny "Danno" Williams, and Kono Kalakaua. The writing gets a boost from Alex O'Loughlin and Scott Caan, who sell every scene they're in. The series ran for 10 seasons (2010–2020), building a story that gave its audience time to invest properly. The plot mechanics of Hawaii Five-0 never overwhelm the human cost underneath them. It rarely drops the ball, and when it does, it recovers fast.

Viewers who think they have seen every crime drama tend to find Hawaii Five-0 proves them wrong. If you have already watched Arrow, Hawaii Five-0 is a natural next step. At 10 seasons, this is a genuine commitment — one that pays off. Alex O'Loughlin anchors it, but the writing does the real work. If you are going to commit to one crime drama this month, make it this one.

Hawaii Five-0 wrapped up in 2020, created by Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman and Peter M. Lenkov — and 10 seasons are available to watch from start to finish.
