Vanessa Lachey, star of NCIS: Hawai’i, recently shared a heartfelt tribute to the series following the news of its cancellation. In an emotional Instagram post, Lachey reflected on her time portraying Agent Jane Tennant and bid farewell to the show that captured the hearts of viewers.
As the first female-led installment in the NCIS franchise, NCIS: Hawai’i promised fans an exciting journey through the stunning landscapes and gripping storylines of the island state. However, the announcement of its cancellation after just three seasons came as a shock to many, leaving fans disappointed and longing for more.
In her tribute, Lachey shared a video of herself gazing out at the sea in Hawaii, the same spot where she filmed the series’ first episode. With the haunting melody of “Sweet Jane” by Cowboy Junkies playing in the background, she expressed gratitude for the experience and the opportunity to showcase the beauty of Hawaii to the world.
Despite the abrupt end to the show, Lachey remained hopeful and focused on the positive impact they had made. She emphasized the importance of cherishing the memories and spreading aloha wherever they go, while also expressing regret for not being able to say a proper goodbye to the cast, crew, and fans.
Throughout the post, Lachey conveyed her deep appreciation for the NCIS: Hawai’i team, urging others to recognize their talent and dedication. She concluded with a heartfelt message of farewell, embracing the Hawaiian tradition of “A Hui Hou,” meaning “until we meet again.”
Despite fans’ efforts to save the show, including a petition with over 25,000 signatures, it seems that NCIS: Hawai’i will indeed come to an end after its series finale airs on Monday, May 6, on CBS. As viewers prepare to say goodbye to Agent Jane Tennant and the rest of the NCIS: Hawai’i team, Lachey’s tribute serves as a poignant reminder of the impact the series had on its audience and the lasting legacy it leaves behind.
