If you were a fan of the long running CBS TV series “Hawaii Five-O,” you aren’t alone. The popular catchphrase “Book ‘em Danno” came from that show. Actor Jack Lord starred as detective Steve McGarrett, head of the State Police Criminal Investigation Department in Honolulu. After he appeared as Felix Leiter in the James Bond film “Dr. No,” he demanded a bigger role and more money, which resulted in his dismissal. He was offered the role of Captain Kirk on Star Trek, but when he asked for 50 percent ownership of the show, the part went to William Shatner. He also lost the part of Eilot Ness to Robert Stack in “The Untouchables.” He did have parts in many TV shows including “Bonanza,” “The Fugitive,” “The F.B.I.” and “Have Gun, Will Travel.”
