Hawaii Economy – Hawaii Five-0 Show Renewed for Another Season


CBS has announced that they have renewed the Hawaii Five-0 television show for a fourth season. According to Walea Constantinau, the Honolulu Film Office Commissioner, this announcement will generate about $55 million in revenue to the state’s economy and add about 250 jobs. This does not include the obvious advertising benefits and free publicity that would help Hawaii’s tourism industry. Constantinau added, “It stands to reason that 44 minutes every week of strong visuals of Hawaii is just an immeasurable impact. We are all about the visual impact to drive and support our No. 1 industry (tourism).”
