This is from someone who grew up watching the original.
The early seasons are more intense like the original but also has humor and family situations coming into play especially with Danny's daughter Grace but over time the team grows and family plays and increasingly larger part of the show. A change from Monday to Friday is also believed to a reason to shift the focus away from the types of crimes and episodes . Even Mc Garret has his softer side although he's always looked out for the team and victims.
From the start women are a part of Five O . Kono is female and the number of women grew over time.
They have other characters like the corner ( first male and later female) and Hawaiian locals such a food truck vendors adding to the more inclusive feel and relaxed atmosphere compared the more formal original.
Steve and Danno are the anchor characters especially early on and their banter takes off on the first episode but they are there for each other too .
