CBS announced Wednesday it has renewed “Hawaii Five-0” for a ninth season. McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin), left, and Danny (Scott Caan) recruit Tani Rey (Meaghan Rath) to join the task force on the premiere of the eighth season.

“Hawaii Five-0” is among the CBS prime-time series lineup renewed for the 2018-2019 season, the network announced today.

Despite the loss of stars Daniel Dae Kim and Grace Park, plus a lingering uncertainty over the return of Alex O’Loughlin for a ninth season, “Five-0” continues to perform well in the ratings as part of CBS’ popular Friday night lineup alongside “MacGyver” and “Blue Bloods,” which were also renewed today.

“NCIS: New Orleans,” “NCIS: Los Angeles,” “Madam Secretary,” “Survivor,” “The Amazing Race,” “Bull” and news magazines “60 Minutes” and “48 Hours” will also be coming back next year.

The 11 renewed series join several others already greenlighted for next season, including freshman series “Young Sheldon,” “S.W.A.T.” and “SEAL Team.”

In total, CBS is bringing back 17 series for next year, including its entire Tuesday and Friday night lineups.
