William Smith played James
“Kimo” Carew for the final season of Hawaii 5-0, replacing James MacArthur
who said he “wanted to do other things”. [He may have been tired
after 11 years of coping with Jack Lord who was reputedly “difficult”.]
So for that last year instead of “Book ‘em Danno”, is was “Lock ‘em up
Kimo”. Ironically, James MacArthur, was originally chosen to play
Danny Williams over Tim O’Kelly, the actor who played Danno in the pilot
movie, because O’Kelly was deemed a little too hard-looking.
Casting Bill in this role suggests this particular consideration was no
longer important.
