HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) - EMME'S ISLAND MOMENTS offers another exciting television experience in its first installment of the season: "HAWAII FIVE-0 REVISITED." It pays tribute to several people who were part of the Hawaii Five-0 classic series. And visits with some of the exciting talents behind the scenes and on camera in the 'new generation 'ohana' of Hawaii Five-0.

They pay tribute to the matriarch of the classic Hawaii Five-0, the late Rose Freeman, wife of Creator and Executive Producer, Lenny Freeman. They also honor the late James MacArthur who played the original "Danno" on the classic Hawaii Five-0 series. A year ago, he was honored by close family and friends with celebration services here in Hawai'i. We talk exclusively to his wife HB about their life in the islands. In the show, they chat with classic Hawaii Five-0 stars, Al Harrington and Dennis Chun (son of Kam Fong who played detective Chin Ho Kelly). Harrington played Ben Kokua in the original show and is known as "Mamo" in the new series. Chun appears as Sergeant Duke Lukela. Jimmy Borges and Kimo Kahoano also have cameos in the reboot of the Hawaii Five-0 show. Also meet Executive Producer Peter Lenkov who's vision and mission is to keep Hawaii Five-0's legacy alive and bring the classic show to a new generation of viewers. The show also catches up with Mark Dacascos who is the Chairman of "Iron Chef America," competed on "Dancing with the Stars" and now has a lead role in "Hawaii Five-0" as the villain Wo Fat.
