What Television Shows air from Hawaii?
What have aired in the past?

Several television shows are produced in Hawaii, including four airing on various national networks. Many other TV shows have been produced and broadcast on national television networks as well as locally.

The four major commercial broadcast channels (KHON, KITV, KGMB and KHNL) as well as the PBS affiliate KHET broadcast a broad range of nationally televised, first run programs that cover all types of interests — news, talk, public affairs, sport and entertainment. Many older shows that were once broadcast on the local channels and major networks are available for streaming and rebroadcast on a number of over the air (OTA), cable and streaming network channels.

Every program on this list are linked to information pages (mostly Wikipedia) about each show or channel. When applicable a link to the general streaming service is also listed, provided that the show is streaming online somewhere. A few titles may have links to more than one stream while others do not have any links to streaming services. This list will be periodically updated whenever we get new information about shows and their streaming links.

Many shows stream online for free, while others will require a paid subscription to view. Here is a key to the streaming services and other information presented on the list.
