Rescue: HI-Surf

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.

Story is ok kind of slow. But the action sequences are top tier with the camera angels. Seems like a modern day bay watch for this generation if of tv viewers with the similar drama. Hopefully the branching stories don't get stale in the long run. Hawaii is a great choice since the north shore is one of the most dangerous beaches in the e tire world to surf. Knowing fox they will axe this show after one season since modern television shows now these days don't last no more than a season of all platforms of streaming and cable TV networks. But overall it's a good popcorn on your couch type of television fun.

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.

It is the North shore on Oahu in Hawaii. It is lifeguards saving lives. Harlan "Sonny" Jennings (Robbie Magasiva) is the captain. Emily "Em" Wright (Arielle Kebbel) is his veteran lieutenant. There is a new group of recruits. They end up picking a political figure's son rather than the best candidate.

It is Hawaiian sun and surf. There are plenty of beautiful people, but the girls are not the Baywatch babes. I don't think anybody is doing slo-mo running. Arielle Kebbel is a veteran. The acting is good. The rescue action is good. Maybe people just want their Baywatch Babes doing their slo-mo runs.

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.
