You probably are gray-haired or close to remember this TV show.

I remember the show and the others listed in the article.

He outlived the entire cast of the original Hawaii Five-O, a much more recent show.

I remember the theme song.
Wasn't Fabian in this weekly show ?

Sad to hear this news. One of my favorite shows of all time . I was just 7 in 1959 when the show first came on the air but was fascinated by it , happily unaware that most of the filming was done on a lot in Hollywood and not in Honolulu . Have the first 3 seasons ( 4th with Troy Donohue I didn’t care for ) on DVD and will watch an episode tonight . Thanks for letting us know about Kimbo .

At 0:54 in the link below. . .
During Hawaiian Eye’s opening each week, Ponce was seen floating in the ocean on an inner tube, wearing his trademark straw hat and stroking a ukulele.

The theme music is a tune that really sticks with you over the years.
To: Colonel Kangaroo
“The soft island breeze brings you strange melodies
And they tell of exotic mysteries under the tropical spell of Hawaiin Eye. “
