Rescue: HI-Surf

I love this show. The action and the storyline, especially the realistic rescues. I read they are based on real rescues. The emotional side of the rescuers personal life adds more intrigue. I hope they continue to make more episodes. The s scenery if beautiful and enjoyable to watch The actors are great and blend well together .

I am repeating that I love and enjoy this show.

You can tell the actors have to keep in good shape in order to keep up with the show. I have even more appreciation and in awe of the lifeguards who risk their lives every day to save the lives of people they don't. Have.

I read a number of reviews complaining of the slow pace. I don't think it's slow. I do think it's balanced. I don't want emergency after emergency with no break. I do want to see the team relaxing and I'm enjoying the various story lines.

And the scenery. Oh my goodness! It's amazing! I thoroughly enjoy the shots of the ocean. The underwater camera work is awe-inspiring.

It's interesting to me to see the behind the scene machinations with the politics of everything. I'm kind of pleased to see that isn't just a mainland issue.

This is a truly pleasant show. Even the few people that the team can't rescue are handled with a full story. I was crying along with the actors at the ceremony on their boards where they threw the purple flowers. (I'm trying to to be a spoiler here).

It isn't pulse pounding, excitement every minute, but it's a string workplace show with amazing scenery and some truly heroic action.

I did read several of the existing reviews and i wonder where those viewers are from. I say this because while the writing could be better for this show, it actually mimics life in hawaii pretty well. Characters like sonny, hina, kainalu and laka fit real life people. Many times, shows/moves based in hawaii don't show the real hawaii or culture.

Some of the things laka said made me giggle because i thought only people from hawaii would understand that! Uncle sonny seems like a real uncle with real life challenges. Hina portrays the local girl who is just trying to make it on her own and try to get away from the many responsibilities we have growing up that we are sort of "forced" to do because that's what we do.

Overall, i liked the show because it gives me a taste of home. It could use some work though!

Beautiful scenery- beaches to die for and a lot of eye candy- yet I'm invested in Sonny the Captain and his story and pain. So not all fluff. Story lines are interesting and relatable.

The rescues are nail biting at times and the stories seem to depict actual life on the island. It's not all roses and puppies.

It did take a couple of episodes to hook me but I am. If you give it a go you'll get hooked too!!

If not for the stories then at least for the beauty that is Hawaii and her oceans.

Please CW please don't cancel it! I get hooked on your innovative shows and then wham!! They're gone.

Ma halo.

Welcome to North Shore unless you're in the recording booth doing post production audio replacement dialogue.. Someone should've worked on that a little bit more because some dialogue sounds janky, other bits are really noticeable and it's fine but you think it would've been picked up?.

Well not many shows set on the beach other then reality TV or all the seasons of Bondi Rescue.

This is like Bondi Rescue but not in Sydney. It's set in Hawaii which is stunning in this and it was great to see Robbie Magasiva playing Sonny, he finally looks settled and happy post Wentworth and while I love him, I see the character battling some bad demons.

Sonny made a deal with the 'devil' hoping he sees that persons lies soon enough.

Here for the banter between characters keeping it real in a dangerous profession and being there for each other when needed.
