We joined with an incredible cast, amazing writers and crew... and gathered in Hawai'i to make a show. But ended up creating an ohana. I'm so grateful to you all."
"#NCISHawaii was a dream. And while it's ended, I am forever grateful to my partners, [Silver] and {Nash], our amazing cast, led by @VanessaLachey, the entire crew, and this wonderful island I call home..." Boscak added.
