Sam, though, had not been fully spared; rather, as he attempted to chase after Dr. Cruz, it became evident, to us and him, that he’d been exposed to enough of Compound X to compromise his system. Sam slumped to the floor, in front of a morbidly pleased Dr. Cruz, just as Jane and Jesse arrived on the scene.
Gleaning that an easily fleeing Dr. Cruz must have crafted and administered to herself an antidote, Jane called in another favor from local asset Milos, to hook up Dr. Carla Chase with a state-of-the-art infectious disease lab, where she could best treat Sam. Milos came up with… an abandoned kennel (and lots of sausage varieties to snack on), and Carla got to work.
Meanwhile, the team back in Hawaii learned that Annalisa Cruz once went by the name Tala Flores, and that she for a long time has rebelled against “U.S. imperialism” as part of a group called CLA. Ernie in turn got busy trying to determine the whereabouts of Annalisa’s CLA pals, by scouring their social media and mentions.
So in the end, we weren’t going to get Sam back.
Thanks again for wasting my time, stupid show!!
Sam was forced on them by the network after LA ended. It was always going to be a one season deal.
Sadly
Done with CBS. Don’t know whose call this was, but it’s a bad one.
I agree
This show should never have been cancelled after this season. Really hoping CBS will reconsider. Lots of potential plots to be explored.
Right. They are getting rid of this and blue bloods (when most of the cast want more seasons) but un-canceled swat and are keeping the HORRIBLE fbi international around. I like fbi most wanted…but I can admit it’s not that great. And those 2 FBIs should go before ncis Hawaii and blue bloods
I can’t figure out why SWAT and Fire Country over Hawaii and Blue Bloods. No comparison. And let’s not forget Origins, which we will never watch. I do have to say FBI International was my favorite FBI till they started messing with the cast. Doesn’t matter now, no longer watching CBS.
Hawaii & New York are expensive locations to produce a show
Vanessa is amazing in this role! I wish that the show could be saved somehow.
One of my favorite shows, such a terrible way to end the series and let the fans down!
Please, what happens to Maggie’s daughter?! We need closure!!
Who?
This one hurts. I really liked Hawaii. Not going to get over the loss anytime soon.
The same way they ended NCIS La with a question and then nothing if it wasn’t for the other NCIS I WOULD’NT EVEN WATCH CBS
They keep canceling shows there won’t be a reason to watch CBS. They want a refresh???? Get rid of the duds and keep the shows we love.
I concur. With NCIS Hawaii canceled and blue bloods canceled for starters , CBS has disappointed many fans. Tom Selleck appeared on CBS morning news saying he’d love to go another season. In general, some of the best shows canceled are ones that have a phenomenal fan base that other new programs won’t be able to compete between the writers actors, and storylines ,what’s left to watch fore some quiet time???
Yet they kept Survivor? I don’t get it.
Apples and oranges. It’s as much of a landmark institution as NCIS is.
Cheaper to make. They’ll never ditch Survivor.
SURVIOR, heck it is cheap to make, so much of those types of shows are and their “fan” bases really huge. Actors Saleries, quality writers, and location drive up the per episode cost. I am holding out hope that maybe a streaming service might pick this show up.
I agree. Between Survivor and the Amazing Race you have to have a razor blade nearby. What a waste of a prime time slot.
Knowing the show is canceled, why on earth not cut the last 15 seconds and just end it on the surprise party? Why bother opening a new thread like that when it would have been so easy edit out?
Agreed
You are absolutely right!
In a way u r right BUT if for some reason it does get uncanceled then season 4 would be off kilter so to speak as I am pretty sure they already have the scripts for the 1st part of season 4 because they were supposed too start filming again in June.
No it wouldn’t have. All you have to do is plop that scene into the end of Episode 1 of the next hypothetical season.
Or you even go from ‘previously on NCIS’ showing the party into Tennant leaving the party, basically setting it up as a cold open for the season arc.
Saves a teaser with some random extra being murdered, the money for which can go into the season opener SFX budget.
That’s what I was thinking. It just left it open for another season. And I have heard not one word on why it was cancelled. I assume to make room for the new one.
Rather disheartening to be the end of an excellent series!!? Not happy with the decision makers on high!!!
How can you end a series with a cliffhanger, especially one of the best shows on TV? NOT FAIR!
I read the person responsible for cancelling so many good shows has only been president of entertainment since 2023. Amy Reisenbach should be replaced. She seems to not know how to do her job well.
You are right. Amy Reisenbach started on 11-17-2022 & in Jan 2023 she canceled NCIS LA just 2 month’s into her tenure. Then she canceled S.W.A.T but UNCANCELED IT after Shemar Moore threw a fit & the fans were upset. THEN this year she cancels S.W.A.T again & UNCANCELS IT AGAIN but she WON’T UNCANCEL BLUE BLOODS OR NCIS HAWAII EVEN THO NCIS HAWAII HAS JUST OVER 30,000 SIGNATURES IN A LITTLE OVER A WEEK. Sorry but why is S.W.A.T ok to renew 2 years in a row but not Blue Bloods or NCIS HAWAII? What makes S.W.A.T fans more respected than the fans & cast from Blue Bloods and NCIS HAWAII… ESPECIALLY TOM SELLECK????
Amy Reisenbach is going to run CBS into the ground if they don’t fire her & bring back Blue Bloods & NCIS HAWAII
Agree with you 100%. If they cancel these its about time to cancel my paramount subscription. Plus these shows are what made cbs great. now no idea. guess time to turn off the TV and just enjoy some travel.
These stupid “signatures” don’t matter.
They only renewed SWAT twice (after cancelling/ending it) because Sony lowered the licensing fees. They don’t care about how many signatures these dumb petitions have
Ended very badly. They should have left the very end out. Terrible way to end a series. No closure.
CBS STOP CANCELING THE GOOD SHOWS!!!!!!
CBS, like most corporations, only care about the $$$. Face it, we’re going to be stuck with more mindless ‘reality’ crap because they’re cheap to produce. With the ACP ending, people are going to look for ways to save $$. Basic cable will take a hit because, frankly, why bother? If CBS doesn’t care about us, why should we continue to support them?
I am very discussty with what they did to the ending. Why couldn’t they take an extra 30 minutes to finish the ending.
It’s the worst of the NCIS series. Adding Sam I thought would make it interesting to me, but not.
Adding Sam is what brought the show down. He ruined team dynamics and the show became all about his boring wooden ass.
Thats exactly right
Stupid ending for a series finale!! Why?? Dumb!
Been far worse ones… I remember The Glades where they left the hero shot and on the ground as a cliffhanger… It was stupid to end the way they did… Show was OK… But I guess too expensive to remain in Hawaii…. No more TV now being filmed in state .. Has been since Lost started 20 years ago…
Because it WASN’T SUPPOSED TO BE A “SERIES” FINALE JUST SEASON 3 FINALE until the stupid CBS lady Amy Reisenbach canceled it at the last minute… SADLY this lady has canceled way to many shows in the 18 months she has been there.. she will be the downfall of CBS yet. I am not watching anything else on CBS unless the bring back NCIS HAWAII & there is no way I am getting invested in any new show because they won’t keep them anyway.
Definitely agree. NCIS Sydney should be canceled. Story lines were terrible, acting no better. Sydney team just did not have the cohesiveness that the Hawaii team had. Horrible decision to cancel NCIS Hawaii!!
I really would like to have and see a petition for signatures to force Season Four to finish out this for the fans of this show it was awesome.. NCIS Sidney is the one that should have been canceled so very disappointed with CBS network…there are so many good shows being lost the last few years has been down right depressing
I totally agree
Petitions aren’t going to do much. Write to CBS, tweet at their social channels. Let your voice be heard outside of comments on websites. Go to their advertisers and tell them you’re no longer supporting them because CBS canceled your favorite show.
Look up what the Chuck fans did to keep Chuck on the air for seasons, do the same with NCiS Hawaii. Hit CBS and advertisers where it hurts — their bottom line. They aren’t going listen otherwise.
The show finished with a 😠 we should have more episodes the other show nicis Las Vegas been canceled suckd was giving in Sunday we don’t have much
so sad that the good series such as the NICS Hawaii are finished and all the reality crap just keeps getting more and more.. Please don’t cancel hawaii
we need this kind of series..
Seems someone has it out for the NCIS shows. NCIS series’ are some of the best shows. Please reconsider cutting NCIS Hawaii. Great show, great actors, great plots!
How could you end the show like that with no closure.
It was a good show and there are certainly others that could have been cancelled instead.
I’m very, very, very, very MAD, FRUSTRATED, AGGRAVATED & TICKED OFF W/CBS CANCELLING four TV Series: “CSI:Vegas”, “So Help Me Todd”, “Blue Bloods” & “NCIS: Hawaii”. They should have NEVER EVER CANCEL ANY SERIES THAT ARE ON THE BUBBLE or NOT. The Fall Season Started Late because of the Writer’s Strike & the SAG-AFTRA Strike. They should give Every Show from ABC, CBS, NBC & FOX TV another Season & if the Ratings don’t improve than you should CANCEL but I NEVER EVER want any shows CANCELLED. These TV Shows lost their Ratings because of the Length of Time of the Strike caused all TV shows to have a shorten Season which began in January for Some Stations & February for CBS. We NEED all the PROGRAMMERS FROM every STATION TO GIVE THEM ALL A 2nd Chance for another Season for ALL the Shows & get their Ratings Back Up. If they don’t bring these Shows Back I’ll BOYCOTT every Station until they Change their Mind. I’m an Avid Television Person who’s been Addicted to TV since I was a Teenager & NOW I’m 60 years young. I love Crime Dramas, Comedy & Mystery Shows. I would LOVE to know who I can write to get these Shows off the CANCELLATION LIST & back on for Fall Season 2024-2025.
I am displeased about the cancellations of both NCIS Hawaii and So Help Me Todd. Both are head and shoulders above many of the shows on the networks (and they wonder why they lose viewers – cancelling decent shows will do it)
BRING IT BACK!!! PLEASE!!!
So… CBS, now knowing they cancelled the show, couldn’t have just edited the last two minutes out of the broadcast?! Instead, they started a new question we’ll never know the answer to. Thanks for nothing.
I cannot believe NCIS Hawaii is cancelled and yet another incarnation is being brought in next season. Why? Production costs? There are other far less worthy shows to cancel. I doubt I will watch the new show. That whole Jethro focus ran its course.
Wow CBS are you kidding me?!!! NCIS Hawaii was one of your better shows! I liked it better than any of the other NCIS shows. You could’ve cancelled a whole bunch of other horrible shows like Survivor, NCIS Sydney, which should have been on the chopping block the first time it aired!
