A blurb from Paramount about Hawaii Five-O Season 1: McGarrett, Danno and the rest of the Five-O squad are back in action in this captivating collection of 24 episodes from the legendary show’s second season.
Hawaii Five-O is back for a second season on DVD! McGarrett is back with Danno and the special group of Five-O members. This season has quite a few guest stars such as Loretta Swit before she was on MASH and Marion Ross from Happy Days, Martin Sheen, Tom Skerritt and Academy Award winning actor Christopher Walken in one of his first adult TV productions. This season also has more of a Thriller/Sci-Fi aspect to the stories. There is the return of McGarrett’s arch nemesis-Wo Fat played wonderfully by Khigh Dhiegh. An interesting tidbit. - When Hawaii Five O ceased production, Magnum PI took over the equipment and studios and filmed some of the shows there for a while. Unfortunately, the omission of one episode from this season is not on the box set. The episode in question is “Bored, She Hung Herself”. Originally shown only once in 1970, it has never been reshown either in the original run or syndication. Someone actually hung himself or herself using the same technique that was done on the episode. The only “Special Feature” for this set is the episode promos for the next week for each episode.
