The battle over “Hawaii Five-0” was lost a long time ago. But “Hawaii Five-0” is resolutely formulaic, and writers and producers get into comfort zones that resist change. That said, there is a race problem with “Hawaii Five-0,” but it happened in 2010, not this week. So why am I a “Hawaii Five-0” completist? If the performers who take their place are of Japanese, Filipino or Hawaiian heritage, “Hawaii Five-0” will actually have become more representative on Hawaii.
