Hawaii Five-O (the original series)

[AnamorphicWidescreen]

I'm almost finished with S06 of HFO. Excellent series, and IMHO there have been no bad episodes in any of these seasons. I don't know if the strong momentum will continue until the end, but so far I'm extremely impressed by the quality of the writing, acting, and production in this show. Well-done.

Some especially notable S06 episodes:

"The $10,000 nickel": A skilled thief steals an extremely valuable nickel,

[Show spoiler]and soon after it gets put into a vending machine. The story-line involving the thief trying to track down the coin & the authorities trying to track down the thief is complex & compelling.

"Secret Witness": An bystander witnesses a "hit", and is pursued by the killer.

[Show spoiler]The witness gets away, but leaves behind a clue that leads the killer to him & his family. As it turns out, the killing was ordered by a big-shot mobster that is known to McGarret & co.

This was an especially well-done & suspenseful episode.

Notable guest stars in this episode are Mark Lenard (Sarek in Star Trek: TOS), and Cindy Williams (American Graffiti, Laverne & Shirley).
