TVLINE | You recently hinted at your intention to exit Hawaii Five-0 after any potential Season 8. (Season 7 is currently up in the ratings vs. last year.) Is that still your plan?
Alex O’Loughlin: Absolutely. I’m just trying to make it through the end of [Season] 7! [Five-0] is really, really wonderful, but it is an action show, I’m the main guy, and I defy anybody to do what I’ve done for as long I’ve done it and hold out the way I have. Dude, I was a fit, strong, healthy guy when I started the show, and I still am, but you sustain what you sustain. It’s part of the gig.

Will Alex O’Loughlin’s departure signal the end of Hawaii Five-0, or could the procedural continue into Season 8 without him? Stay tuned as we continue to monitor the cancel/renew status of H50 Season 8…

November 2, 2016 at 10:09Alex O’Loughlin states his plan is to leave after Season 8, which is the next season. He can still do one more year and then quit. I think, based on the ratings and the quality of the show, it will get one more season, (which is announced as the final season), from CBS and probably end in 2018.
