Mine, too. Best theme music of ALL time.

Zulu was a standup comic before coming to the show... too bad ol' Jack Lord never really let him show any personality.

Hey, that was part of the show's shtick. NOBODY showed any personality. It was FORBIDDEN to show personality.

Trivia. What was the last line said at the end of Hawaii 5-O every week?

Everyone one except Jack.

I almost choked once when he showed up in one episode wearing a broad brimmed plantation hat, scarf, white bellbottoms & white patent leather shoes.

"Book 'im Dan-o, Murder One." Please, ask something difficult.

OK. Gavin McLeod showed up in two episodes. What was his character named?

No. Even if it was the line, Jack Lord didn't start using it till later in the show's run. Most endngs up till then were various. One episode Lord said only "book him". The next week he used the famous line and it stuck. But that's not it. This is a hard one.

Ever see the movie "The Dish"? If not, you MUST get it. Believe me, trust me, the theme music for Hawaii Five-0 has a part in a very important scene. It is a riot. If you're a NASA buff, you'll love this movie even more. Its set in Australia, I will say no more, expect that I lived in Auz and the characterizations of the people are wonderful.

Offering my condolences.

My screen name has often got the reply:

"Book 'em don-o"

Ok, this is big league trivia, and you've got me stumped. I know it wasn't Wo-Fat, because an Asian guy played that commie heavy. !

I give up . I'd say, "A Quinn Martin Production," but it wasn't.
