We watched this all the time growing up. Wonder how the new series will compare? I don't watch "Lost" but I guess one of the guys from that show is going to star on this one. The link above contains the story and video of the new opening sequence.

Hawaii is hip again. First we saw the resurgence of tiki lounges, enabling a whole new generation to sip colorful cocktails surrounded by wood-carved décor. And now the trend is coming to a TV near you thanks to CBS' remake of the classic island detective series "Hawaii Five-O."

Aussie Alex O'Loughlin ("Moonlight") will play lead Detective Steve McGarrett, a cop who goes home to Oahu to solve his father's murder and ends up staying after Hawaii's governor offers him the chance to head up a team of detectives on his terms. Daniel Dae Kim ("Lost") heads back to Hawaii to costar as Chin Ho Kelly, the wrongly accused former protégé of McGarrett's dad, and Scott Caan ("Ocean's Eleven") stars as Detective Danny "Book 'em Danno" Williams.

The first "Hawaii Five-O," which had a similar storyline, starred Jack Lord as McGarrett, Kam Fong as Kelly, James MacArthur as Williams, and Richard Denning as the governor. They must have been doing something right, as the series, which first aired in 1968, ran all the way until 1980.
