It was later reported that the two-part crossover would air on January 3, 2020. The crossover event featured Magnum P.I. actors Hernandez, Weeks, Knighton, and Hill appearing in the Hawaii Five-0 episode while Hawaii Five-0 actors Meaghan Rath, Katrina Law, and Beulah Koale appeared in the Magnum P.I. episode.[4] Knighton also appeared in a second episode later on in the tenth season of Hawaii Five-0.[5] In addition, other Hawaii Five-0 actors made appearances throughout the entire season.
