Hawaii Five-0 season 8 midseason spotlight: What should future hold for Junior Reigns?
So what should the series decide to do from here? Take a look at our list of suggests below, the latest in our week-long spotlight series all about the show.
1. Allow Junior and McGarrett to keep working together – We’ve seen so far on the series that Junior is super-polite and respectful of just about everyone on the show. Hopefully, Steve can continue to loosen him up a little bit. You want to be serious when the moment calls on it, but there’s nothing wrong with having a little bit of fun here and there!
2. Junior and Tani’s relationship – The photo above is from the upcoming March 2 episode, and it will pair off the two characters for an undercover mission as a couple. We know how Danny envisions their future, and we would absolutely love to see the same thing for them! What’s wrong with rooting the two of them to get together? Nothing, really.
3. More of Junior’s past – We already know about the relationship that Junior lost due to the time he spent in the military. We’d like to go beyond that and see more of what caused him to become the person that he is today — and someone who was so gung-ho about joining Five-0 so soon after coming back home.

4. Giving him time with some surprising characters – What would it look like if Junior worked alongside Adam for a mission? Or, how would he fare having to spend a lot of time with the lab? The more opportunities to throw Junior outside of the comfort zone, the better off the overall series is going to be.
5. Some sort of direction entering season 9 – It may be a little too early at the moment to know for sure what this said direction will be, but we absolutely do want to see some sort of conflict for the character that could push him into season 9. Maybe it’s an adversary specific to him, or maybe it’s a personal plot point that can carry over into next season.
