You know, as I do, actors who, having become worldwide celebrities thanks to a TV series, complain of their lot and declare themselves ready to drop it all.

I just sold a farm in Missouri, and I own a ski lodge in Colorado with some Honolulu partners.

Fortunately, I've also been an electrician, and that's a happy memory for me.

In the case of Five-O, I believe it was a combination of many ingredients - timing, chemistry, Hawaii.

Some people say Hawaii is spoiled, but I don't think so. It's modern. It's a part of today's world.

Six years ago, I completed the premier episode of Hawaii Five-O, and Jack Lord and I immediately realized that we had a good series, that this was a success such as we'd never hoped for!

The first year we actually did a lot of night shooting and the writers weren't even allowed on location.

The one thing I missed was never having children. It just wasn't in the cards, I guess.

The most wonderful gift one human being can give to another, is in some way, to make that person's life a little bit better to live.

Hey. What is it that famous person said? 'It'll all work out in the end, and if it doesn't, that means it's not the end yet'?
