PBS HAWAI‘I PRESENTS

Squid Eye to the Road to Hāna

As the saying goes, everything old is new again. This month, PBS Hawaiʻi Classics will be re-airing an old program that may be new for many viewers. That’s because it's been more than 30 years since some of these episodes of Spectrum Hawaii debuted. Every Thursday night in April, you can watch two, half-hour episodes as they originally aired in the '80s and '90s.

Air Date: Thu, Apr 7, 2022 8:30 PM

This episode takes a look at some of the dying traditions in Hawaiʻi. Find out what it means for a fisherman to have “squid eye” and meet the man responsible for some of the most iconic neon signs that lit up the islands. And then it’s off to the northeast coast of Maui to visit the small town of Hāna. Even back in the ’80s, residents were talking about saving their special and harmonious way of life.
