Hawaii Five-O, which ran from 1968-1980 on CBS, remains one of the most popular police dramas in television history. Jack Lord’s steely portrayal of Five-O’s man in charge, Steve McGarrett, makes the show worth watching. Played by Jack Lord, McGarrett combines intensity with coolness.

McGarrett is a bachelor who obviously enjoys the company of island ladies — a self-assured man with a staccato delivery. He is always polite when dealing with his subordinates, Danny "Danno" Williams, Kono Kalakaua, and Chin Ho Kelly. However, Steve has little patience for constitutional civilities — "Gentlemen, I want you to turn this place inside out" — finding the crook is always the most important thing.

The 24 episode third season of Hawaii Five-O opens with the Five-O on the trail of their nemesis, Wo Fat. While a critically wounded U.S agent awaits surgery, McGarrett and his men race to recover the kidnapped daughter of the doctor scheduled to do the surgery and come face to face with Red Chinese Agent Wo Fat. Wo Fat remains an arch enemy of the Five-O throughout the twelve year run of Hawaii Five-O

The legendary jazz singer Nancy Wilson guest stars on “Trouble in Mind.” In the episode, Wilson plays singer Eadie Jordan who is trying to stage a comeback at a concert, but she is struggling with an addiction to heroin. Meanwhile, McGarrett and his men are in a race against time, as they try to stop the distribution of arsenic-laced heroin on the island of Oahu. Nancy Wilson fans will enjoy this episode, as she sings several times.

A young Eric Braeden (Victor Newman on The Young and the Restless) guest stars as journalist Klaus Marberg on “The Second Shot.” McGarrett and his team have a lot of dangerous situations to contend with as assassination attempts are made on an exiled Greek doctor and the journalist who comes to interview him. To make matters worse, things aren’t what they seem.

Martin Sheen, who appeared on the second season's “Cry Lie” episode, appears once again in “Time and Memories.” When a lawyer is murdered, his wife becomes the top suspect and McGarrett investigates. However, matters are complicated by the fact that the woman (Diana Muldar) had a relationship with McGarrett. “Time and Memories” gives the audience a bit of insight into Steve McGarrett’s personal life. While we already know that he was in Naval Intelligence, this is the first time we learn he was in a serious relationship while on active duty as a Navy lieutenant.
