NCIS: Hawaii season 3 returns on Monday, February 12. When Jane Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) and Kate Whistler (Tori Anderson) sent Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) on his merry way following his knight-in-shining-armor act, you didn't really think that would be the last we'd see of him, did you? Here's how to watch NCIS: Hawaii season 3 from anywhere.

Quick links

NCIS graduate Hanna has a recurring role in NCIS: Hawaii season 3, which begins with Tennant navigating her return to work following the dramatic events of the previous season finale. Adrian and Maggie used Whistler and the Pearl Harbor Field Office's SAC as pawns in their game of revenge, and Tennant very nearly paid the ultimate price.

Fortunately, they both escaped unharmed, which means we get to carry on basking in the wholesome glow of Kate and Lucy Tara (Yasmine Al-Bustami), aka the dynamic duo Thelma and Louise.

Some of the highlights of this season include a massive, Con Air-style man-hunt when a plane transporting convicts crash-lands on the island, the search for a high-profile Russian prisoner known as "The Chemist" and a cyberattack on the US Marshal's database.

How to watch NCIS Hawaii season 3 in the US

NCIS: Hawaii season 3 is set to debut on Monday, February 12, at 10 pm ET/PT, on the CBS. Subsequent episodes air in the same slot each week. There's no need to worry if you don't have access to CBS, as there are several online alternatives.

One is to use a live TV streaming service to stream CBS, along with plenty of other cable channels. Fubo, Hulu with Live TV, DirecTV Stream and YouTube TV all offer CBS, which will of course include streaming access to NCIS: Hawaii season 3.

Your other option is to sign up for Paramount Plus, the CBS streaming service that lets you watch CBS content online (depending on where you are). 

Paramount Plus will live stream episodes of NCIS: Hawaii season 3 in tandem with CBS. However, you'll need to subscribe to the $11.99 per month Paramount Plus with Showtime plan for this.

The cheaper Essential plan, which costs $5.99 per month, will let you watch episodes the day after they air.
