NCIS: Hawai’i Fans Furious Over Cliffhanger Ending After Show’s Cancellation
Fans of NCIS: Hawai’i are reeling from the show’s abrupt cancellation and its unresolved finale. CBS announced last month that the spin-off would not return for a fourth season, a decision that left viewers particularly dismayed given the series’ cliffhanger ending.
The final episode, which aired on May 7, concluded with a major cliffhanger, intensifying the frustration among fans. The episode featured a heartfelt surprise party for Jane (Vanessa Lachey) with the main cast, including Sam (LL Cool J), Ernie (Jason Antoon), Jesse (Noah Mills), Lucy (Yasmine Al-Bustami), and Kai (Alex Tarrant). But instead of a satisfying conclusion, the episode ended with Jane returning home to find her mentor, Maggie (Julie White), waiting with a cryptic message: “Janie, you’re probably going to need a drink for what’s coming next.”
This unresolved ending has sparked outrage among fans, many of whom took to social media to express their disappointment. “Not #NCISHawaii ending like that after a strike-shortened season and cancellation,” one fan tweeted. Another added, “WTH kind of ending was that!!! That is so cruel to the fans.”
Some fans are channeling their frustration into action, using the cliffhanger as motivation to advocate for the show’s renewal. “A happy ending would be sad, it would be resignation and almost acceptance,” wrote one supporter. “The cliffhanger motivates us to keep fighting because #NCISHawaii’s story isn’t over. LET’S FIGHT! #SaveNCISHawaii.”
While the show may be over, the battle for a resolution continues as fans rally to save the series.
