Chesapeake Shores

Didn't know what I was looking for on Netflix when I stumbled upon this one. When I started I described it to people that it's like a hallmark movie but just it's a series, silly me didn't read the cover that it was actually hallmark! :D

I almost didn't make it through the first episode but as I had nothing else to watch I stuck with it and boy am I glad I did!!!

This show is amazing!! It's so touching and heartwarming and just everything wonderful! Every single character is beautifully written and Bree, Jess, David and Trace are my favourites.

Jess and David... Oh what do I say about these two!! They are just the cutest couple ever in all of TV Drama! Ever! Take my word for it, I have watched almost every drama ever! :D

Bree is fantastic! Just Fantastic!!

Trace is awesome, perfect romantic! He deserves better. I feel bad for him through half the series, I just hope he gets his happy ending that he really really deserves!

And the location... Oh My! Wow wow wow! It is my dream to live in a place like this, it's heaven on earth, I would love nothing more than to live there!

This show has got everything, it was a while since I got to watch anything lovely like this one. But thank god for netflix and hallmark! :)

And now am back to square one, nothing feels good enough now that I have watched this.

Hallmark seems to have finally learned something about show writing with its fourth original series. The pilot showed promise as the pacing was good, writing was engaging, characters were well formed and there was conflict! These are all huge improvements and if it remains this way, it will finally break Hallmark out of its recent original series slump. (Cedar Cove was canceled, the season finale of Good Witch was abysmal.) The pilot shows all the signs of a well done show. I only hope they continue down this path and have learned from their past mistakes and can sustain a show on real drama rather than the convoluted romantic slop they always lazily fall back on.

This is a bit schmaltzy. It is low stress in the story lines, good for people who do not enjoy tension in their shows. I was not a big fan of the Trace story line, so since that ended I like it better. That was a bit too tortured.

You never feel terribly invested in the plots. It is like eating bons bons. Very pretty, sweet, and you would not want to eat too many of them.

I enjoy the beautiful location shoots, and the sets are like model homes. Indoor and out. Also kudos to the stylists on this show. They do great hair and make up and clothes. I always appreciate it when they give plots to older people too.

I have enjoyed it. I am sure Hallmark has a similar show in the works when this one ends with Season 6.

I don't understand. Why doesn't the parents say sorry to the kids for having hurt them with the divorce. The kids are all messed up and hurting and yet no one says sorry for their actions. 😮

I like the show, but what puzzled me was why Axel first was een Golden Retriever and then suddenly changed into a German Sheperd... ?
