I did not like the pilot of NCIS Hawaii at all. There were so many characters that I couldn't keep them straight and didn't always know if they worked for NCIS. I think they should have had fewer characters to introduce the series and not do too many stories at once. On the other hand, I watched the new FBI International, and I had no trouble keeping track of which characters were which. The storyline was also interesting. I will continue to watch that show. I will watch NCIS Hawaii a few more times to see if I can sort out who is who and if I like it better. If I don't, I won't be watching any more.
