...FRIDAY NIGHT MOVIE (CBS, 9-11 p.m.). Hawaii Five-O. The old Hawaiian Eye private-detective series of a few seasons back is reborn with a new title and a new star (Jack Lord). In the two-hour opening installment, our gumshoe uncovers an underworld plot to wreck the U.S. intelligence system in the Pacific.

The expertly produced program catches Reagan in a wide assortment of moods. He grins, laughs and frowns as the occasion dictates-but he always looks good. Reagan headquarters would dearly love to show the famous hour-long Telestar debate with Robert Kennedy-in which Bobby showed up rather badly-but CBS, the producing...
