Aguas turbias

It has Ozarks and animal kingdom vibes, coastal town with a lot of family drama mixed with crime and drugs. With the writer of Dawsons creek behind it you get a lot of romances and love triangles which I feel does kind of water it down but I thought it did well for what it was. You had mysteries surrounding the family and the main cast which led to a lot of family turmoil but where it shined was when they had to make decisions that could topple there family legacy. The season flew by with 8 episodes and left it open for a lot of possibilities. It's not a perfect series but gives you enough to stay committed to it. Overall I give it 7 out of 10.

It's not half bad. After reading reviews I thought I wouldn't watch. But I like Jake weary from Animal Kingdom so I decided I needed to see for myself. It's not incredible but it's pretty good. Enjoy the coastal scenery. The writing could be a little punchier and I wonder if I am really so out of the hip life with all the drug gummy's and drinking. In any case I'm enjoying the series for what it is. Absolutely need to give it 2 to 3 episodes to catch the character development. Dysfunctional family still clinging to being a family. And finding ways to survive. Are they bad? Or just caught up trying to survive?

Got through it in a couple days. It is intriguing enough. If you compare everything to your favorite family goes bad shows then it ranks somewhere in the middle. It's not going to blow anyone away but it has good actors and it is worth it just for Maria Bello who plays the matriarch. She has come a long way from Coyote Ugly but I have enjoyed her in the last few projects i have seen her in. The story has a few good twists and I do hope it has a second season. This is not really a show that it going to wow anyone but it is an easy watch and most of the characters are interesting enough and the ending does leave you wanting more. I would put it somewhere between a 6 and 8 depending on your mood and proclivity for dysfunctional criminal families.

The Waterfront was pretty solid overall. The ending? It wrapped up in a way that felt satisfying but not too predictable - like they gave you enough closure but still left a little room for your imagination. Not a total mind-blower, but definitely not a letdown either.

Vibe-wise, it's kinda like a mix of Boardwalk Empire meets Narcos. You get that gritty, tense underworld feel with some slick drama and intense character moments. It's got that slow-burn tension but with enough action and twists to keep you hooked.

As for the cast - honestly, they did a good job. The lead really carried the show with that rough-around-the-edges but somehow charming vibe. The supporting actors brought solid performances too, making the relationships and conflicts feel real. No over-the-top stuff, just believable and natural acting.

All in all, it's definitely worth a watch if you're into crime dramas with strong characters and a moody atmosphere. Not a game-changer, but definitely a chill, engaging binge.

The Waterfront is every bit as good as I had hoped for. I admit I watch a lot of tv shows but I try to only watch the really good ones. The Waterfront is one of those. I'm a big fan of crime dramas and there are lot to choose from but this one is definitely worth your time. It has the feel of a mix between Ozark, Animal Kingdom and Bloodline. While it's not as good as those 3 shows it's still pretty darn good. The cast is what makes this show so good...Holt McCallany, Jake Weary, Danielle Campbell, Topher Grace, Humberly González and Maria Bello all shine and give some of the best performances of their careers. Bottom line is this show will keep you on the edge of your seat and wanting more.
