Sullivan's crossing

Doctors are Godlike. Surgeons are Zeus like neurosurgeons are more godlike than Zeus. Maggie is not showing the temperament or confidence of a neurosurgeon, and is too young to have been through the many rigorous years necessary to become a neurosurgeon. I'm on episode six, and I find that to be the biggest flaw.

A real neurosurgeon would have sloughed off all of the issues associated with the lawsuit, and left them to the lawyers. Neuro urges are probably sued 2 to 3 times a year. And the neurosurgeon would not likely be in the ER, and would not flip between patients. Still, as a soap opera, Maggie is attractive and lovable.

If you like Virgin River you'll love Sullivan's Crossing.

Plotlines are predictable but the character development has come a long way from the beginning. Sully is a character you can really pull for. Morgan Kohan is really settling in to the leading role. Being able to lean on veteran actors like Tom Jackson, Scott Patterson and Chad Michael Murray has given her time to lean in to her character and Maggie has become relatable and warm, something not there at the start.

If you love the books you may not embrace the differences but that's not unusual. Nice scenery of the Canadian Maritimes...

BTW DON'T read the lone critic review unless you want to laugh. Not sure what show they think they're reviewing but Nova Scotia looks nothing like the Rocky Mountains...

If you're a fan of Hallmark series or other Canadian series like Virgin River, Chesapeake Shores and Cedar Cove, you'll definitely enjoy Sullivan's Crossing. As importantly, if you loved Gilmore Girls, this show stars Scott Peterson who played Luke Danes, the owner of Luke's Grill in the fictional town of Stars Hollow. Now, he plays "Sully," short for his surname, Sullivan, owner of a campground-style resort in Nova Scotia called Sullivan's Crossing. His daughter, Maggie, a young neurosurgeon, returns to help him after she was taken away abruptly by her mother when just a child after the marriage fell apart. Her character is the lead and her love interest is none other than Chad Michael Murray, best known for his role as Lucas Scott on One Tree Hill. He plays a lawyer who left his career behind and is staying at Sullivan's Crossing as he seeks a new path forward and a simpler life. He is as hunky and handsome as can be. The series features plenty of drama, ups and downs, and soul searching, but always with a family-friendly tone and sympathetic approach. It can be a bit sappy and hokey, but overall, it's like the comfort food of tv series.

What a horrible piece of writing, Totally ridiculous.

A half inch drill bit in the 'so called wilderness' what a joke.

The acting is blah, the story is lame.

Half the episodes are just the same scenic drone shots of Nova Scotia. We watched 2 episodes hoping it would get better, but it just got worse, we fast forwarded to the rock climbing part, and rescue, what a joke.

I am running out of bad stuff to say, so I did like the old Indian guy, the rest of the cast was so stereo typed, the dialog so predictable, it was insulting. And Netflix advertises it as the #2 watched series, what a joke. There are so many better things to watch than wasting your time on this piece of junk.

I tried watching Sullivan's Crossing but I ended up giving up on it. I just couldn't watch it at all.

I understand it's based on the books but everything about wat just bad.

The story revolves around a man whose daughter is taken from him by his ex-wife and her new husband. Okay, kidnapped is the right word for it. She returns home to Nova Scotia as an adult to try and reconnect with her father.

I feel I was very generous in giving Sullivan's Crossing six stars out of ten when I could have gone lower than that but I decided not to because at the time I had hoped it would get better than it did.
