The network that serves us three CSI's, two NCIS's while prepping a spin-off of "Criminal Minds" is reportedly in the process of revamping "Hawaii Five-O."

"Hawaii Five-0," for anybody who missed out on the '70s, chronicled the adventures of Honolulu cop Steve McGarrett and his team of Hawaiian crime-fighters.

No word yet on casting, but producers are hoping this remake fares better than Dick Wolf's revamp of "Dragnet" a few years back. Starring Married With Children's Ed O'Neill as Joe Friday (iconically played by robotic Jack Webb in the original), "Dragnet" never made it through a single season.
