South Beach

This show is so awful, it makes the other south beach show look good, the acting is terrible, the storyline is completely confused, the writing is bad and I Was wondering how the catering truck is horrible with this project. I Don't Hate all Shows based on Miami, Miami Vice & CSI: Miami had beautiful style, flashy looks and beautiful image, this one has none of that, just boring dialogue, idiotic looks and pathetic production. Thankfully you won't see don Johnson & Phillip Michael Thomas appear on this thing, this is a failure and it will be a failure for decades to come, this is An Early candidate on my list of the worst TV shows of 2006.

Want an TV Show set in Miami, go rent Miami Vice on DVD.

This is exactly what UPN needed to breath life into its lineup. Very creative work. With strong marketing, and a decent time slot, this show would quickly establish itself. My DVR is on record! The cast seem well suited for the roles they portray, not sure why guys from Brooklyn didn't have the right accent, but about midway through the first show that didn't matter. I think first shows are always tough, introducing new characters, plots and generating interest. Although I was initially unsure, I became more interested as the plot unraveled. I like the work of Philip Levens on Superman, he has done a masterful job in his previous works as a writer. I am sure he will be a break through producer and writer.., exactly what UPN needs to get market share. Let's see where the show takes us!

Set in South Florida's world of models, pools, beaches, drugs, gangsters and nightclubs this is another stab at copying the success of Baywatch, but adding some sub-Miami Vice elements for that prime-time soap measure.

It's also executive-produced by Jennifer Lopez, which explains why it looks like nothing more than one of her music videos. But despite virtually everyone on screen being stunningly good looking it's all fur coat and no knickers. Everyone is a hunk or a babe ready to flash the flesh, but nobody gets involved in anything remotely resembling a decent plot and the dialogue is flimsier than the thong bikinis some of the women wear. If that's all you need then tune in, but when it first aired in America, few did, and it ranked 152nd out of the 156 original series produced for network television in the 2005-06 season – and was then dropped after eight episodes.

In LA last year I found myself on the beach where Baywatch was once filmed. It was 10am and few others were about so I ran along the sand in slow motion, just like 'The Hoff' used to do. Then I noticed that coming the other way was someone else doing exactly the same thing. We laughed, and (slowly) carried on our way. Baywatch might have been corny but it was a guilty pleasure loved by millions because it was light-hearted fun. South Beach will only have people running for the remote control, and almost certainly not in slow motion.

Apparently this show has virtually a little bit of everything: It's "The OC", "The Sopranos", "Scarface", "Las Vegas" and "Desperate Housewives"-all mixed up in one show. The best part of it-It stars the Sexiest Woman Alive-Vanessa L. Williams. Vanessa plays Elizabeth, The den mother to Matt & Vince-The show's central characters. Elizabeth has her own child, Alex-from an interracial marriage.I think it's up to some tough competition-From "Idol" & "Lost". Thank heaven for TiVo, because This Show will become a major catastrophe when CBS and Warner Bros. will form a new TV network that will Replace the existing, yet soon to be departed UPN and The WB.

Just because each episode doesn't have a happy ending doesn't mean it's bad. It shows the reality of what the rich and fabulous live up to. In a lot of shows all the airs are just unrealistic things, whereas in "South Beach," the actors portray their characters greatly and make it seem very real. The story line for every week pulls the audience into the TV, and the people can't get out of it. There are also a lot of attractive characters. The part about the three characters being from Brooklyn and being successful is sometimes a little unrealistic, but for the rest of the show, it is the rich and fabulous facing some interesting things. This show rocks !
