Chesapeake Shores

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.

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.

Diane Ladd's 'Irish' accent is absolutely dreadful! Why do shows insist on faking accents - her character can have Irish ancestory without the begorras!! Please stop!!

I like the show. It had a lot of predictable moments but I love the setting, the family support the characters show to each other and all around warmth and sweet sentiment. Just what I need after a long day and when I want to curl up and watch a show that is enjoyable and light. I love Treat Williams he is such a joy to watch and the sisters have good chemistry. The lead actress does a good job keeping the show going and I enjoyed her work on Once Upon A Time. As for some drawbacks,it has a bit too much gloss to it and typical scenarios you would find on hallmark but I think the kinks could be worked out and hopefully the writers will go a little deeper with the drama and characters. i look forward to more episodes.

Really enjoyed this show. Like the plot and the actors. Love the relationships that they have with each. A really good show to watch minus all the violence. Love the family feel and how they stick together. The scenery is outstanding and the characters are well developed. The only thing missing is diversity of any kind. Come on people, no diversity with friends, people walking in the street or even working in any of the businesses. None of any kind! That's not realistic.That needs fixing!
