The ninth season of Hawaii Five 0 kicked off last night with the official Sunset on the Beach (SOTB) red carpet event. Alex, of course was there and with that came a lot of photos. Many more will be posted in the week to come along with interviews and videos. Due to time restraints and the fact there are so many of them, we will not post all of them that are online on the site this year, but only some of our favorites. We will however, have another post with the ones we took later in the week. We are sorting through them so stay tuned for those.
In the meantime, this SOTB had some of the familiarity to years to come but also was very different. The biggest difference was the addition of Magnum PI to the same event. Because of that, there were many more cast members that had to make it down the red carpet, which unfortunately created the need for shorter interviews and shorter time spans that Alex had with the fans. Some people were happy with the addition of Magnum PI and some others not so much. Depending where you fall on that seemed to equal how much you enjoyed this year’s SOTB.
One other change that we got to see the results of, was the concert time was before the actual showings of the premieres. From that, Alex stayed for it this time. Watching him bring the crowd to their feet when he danced to the Cyndi Lauper hit, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, was one of the highlights of the night.
It was also unfortunate that Scott was not able to make it since it was the 200th episode and all. Hopefully he had something much more important to do than attend. It was unfortunate the media had said he was going to be there so many fans were disappointed
Back to Alex, who always shows up and gives the fans a fun time, here are some of our favorite pics and videos depicting the night.

Hopefully that provides a good overview for the night. To see more, we have the majority of it on our Twitter and Instagram feeds so check them out. We will also continue to add there as other favorites show up.
Alex takes my breath away he’s so cute and seeing him dancing and being goofy just melted my heart
Does anyone have any idea why they had double barriers this year at SOTB? Other than vague “security,” it seemed out of sync with prior years. I hope nothing happened previously that caused the increased distance. Thanks for the wonderful photos!
Thanks for following and to answer your question, not really sure, but maybe because of the double cast.
Thanks for compiling such a lovely set of pics and for everything on twitter and IG. And thank you for sourcing all your credits! One thing to remember is that this event was pushed back by several days because of a tropical storm. The reason why the press thought Scott was going to be there was based off the original SOTB schedule. He flew back to the mainland on Friday to be with his family.
Thank you again for all the lovely Alex media!
You are welcome and yes we took the timing into consideration but he seemed to have left the island a few days before Friday after his last scene he filmed. He also could have returned and brought his family for this milestone. We have no idea what else he had to do so it might have been more important. It was just an observation as many fans were disappointed. Thank you for following and your comment 🙂
AWESOME! Thanks for posting this!
You are welcome.
Obrigada!
