More casting news from Entertainment Weekly:

“The tough-guy performer best known for Saving Private Ryan, Red and Black Hawk Down will play a former Detroit Homicide Detective turned head of Hawaii police’s IA unit. After the events of last season, he is actively investigating the Five-0 unit and he’s not cutting them any slack (despite our heroes having the support of the new Governor).”

New cast members is just the start! I know I’ve been slacking since the show went on hiatus. Call it post-five-o depression!

So here’s the news. Masi Oka will be a regular next season. We only saw a little of him as the coroner. A little quirky for my taste but I’m sure he’ll settle in.

Terry O’Quinn will join his former LOST castmate as he takes on the roll of Steve’s military mentor. A perfect roll for him. Can’t wait.

Musically inclined, check out the website of Hapa, a local group that appeared on the show this past season. Producer Peter Lenkov said that a soundtrack for the show is being talked about so hang on for more about that.

It’s going to be a big one. It’s going to be so crazy, they even kept parts of the script a secret from the actors! Check out this behind the scenes clip.

Of course, I’ll watch. . . and you will, too.

Oia’i'o”

When Five-0 gets too close to the truth about Wo Fat and his associates, the criminal mastermind retaliates by trying to destroy the team.  They’ve always played by their own rules, but when the Governor can no longer protect them, it’s time for Five-0 to pay the consequences of their actions, on the first season finale of HAWAII FIVE-0, Monday, May 16 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.
