The last couple of years the quality of the shows "went south" significantly. CBS also did it's best to "Discourage" Viewers by Pre-Empting Hawaii Five-O for 2 or three weeks at a time for "Special" Programming. Time and again one would turn to the Thursday night Slot (I Believe it was 9:00 PM) and hear "Hawaii Five-O will not be seen tonight!" One evening I was almost Incensed when I overheard on one evening, when Hawaii Five-O and the show preceding it were both pre-empted, "The First Show" (I cannot remember which show it was, The Waltons?) will return next week, Hawaii Five-O will return in Three Weeks!" All I could say was "Why is CBS "Ganging Up" on Hawaii Five-O for its Specials?" Naturally Viewership fell off, and consequently the show was canned.
