The mostly negative reaction to this show at IMDB from users posting reviews is still happening, but maybe that is just a typical Internet dog-pile.

Amazing that the show was green-lighted for a full season only after a couple of weeks of its new season.

The premiere episode only attracted about 6.6 million viewers, it dropped a million or so the next week, and the numbers went down after that.

Is this typical? Or is this maybe some pet project of someone at CBS, sort of like the H50 reboot was reportedly of Moonves?

Speaking of the H50 reboot, someone must have been busy editing Lenkov's Wikipedia entry.

While it does deal with his "fall from grace" (maybe a pun in here relating to G. Park), that only gets one (and only one) paragraph which refers to him getting the chop and the guy from MacGyver getting brain damage over PL's nasty attitudes.

One of the people connected with NCIS Hawaii (which spells Hawaii the "correct" way just like H5-Zero did with its Hawaiian episode titles) is Larry Teng, who directed 11 episodes of the H50 reboot. He is the NCIS show's executive producer.
