Ed Bernero is such a big
Hawaii Five-0 fan, he has the show's theme song as his ringtone. But that's not all.
The
Criminal Minds exec producer is also creating a new version of the classic show that starred
Jack Lord as Steve McGarrett, head of an elite branch of the fictional Hawaii State Police. The show won two Primetime Emmys and ran on CBS from 1968 to 1980 (Really?! It ran that long?!).
According to
The Hollywood Reporter, the new version
will feature McGarrett's son as top cop. Bernero says he won't try and re-invent the series, and will "keep as much of the original show as possible."
Okay, let's think about this. Who looks enough like Jack Lord to play his son? (Of course, he'll have to have the same immovable, thick mane.) Jake Gyllenhaal? Kyle MacLachlan? How about Peter Krause?
Dirty Sexy Money can't last much longer, can it?

I think I'm one of the very few people - maybe not even David Letterman himself - who remembers the very first
David Letterman Show with a real fondness. No, not NBC's
Late Night with David Letterman, I'm talking about his morning show, which ran on NBC for a very short time in 1980. I'm not quite sure how I watched this show. I would have been in high school in 1980, so I don't know if I skipped school to see some episodes or what (it was way before I had a VCR). Anyway, I thought it was quite good and had some real style, fun regulars (Edie McClurg!) and great guests (Steve Allen, Andy Kaufman). It's interesting to see how much this show resembles later Letterman. I wish he'd bring back some of these segments (like viewer mail and videotaped humor) on his current show.
After the jump is the first part of the September 12, 1980 episode (with original commercials!). After you watch that check out the other three parts
here (on the right). If you've never seen this particular show it's quite intriguing.
