Reef Break

Once again we have a good looking smartass who like cracking remarks while acting fearless. We have a first episode that was completely predictable all the way through (Which was enough to take it off future recording). It's just another like a female Magnum PI, and every other beach detective series rolled into one. You know. locations with beautiful people as lead characters doing extremely dumb things and succeeding anyway. It is the same foolish foremat they keep using time and again. Actually the first five minutes on the plane after landing tells you EXACTLY what kind of nonesense you are in for. Just a lot of cheese and foolishness.

Poppy Montgomery's character, Cat Chambers, is so arrogant it's hard to like her. Ruins the show for me. Great scenery though.

I'll skip the synopsis of the show, because that's not what a review is. Reef Break is a light, dramedy that leans slightly to the corny side. Normally I would slam the corniness, but it works here. Maybe it's the beachy set and setting. Or maybe it's the airy vibe a summer series craves. Either way, I found myself enjoying it and look forward to the next episode. For the most part, the cast is great. Some pairings feel forced, while others have incredible potential. Reef Break is a nice "break" from the police/medical/dark crime shows on the air and so far, it's off to a good start.

I really like Poppy Montgomery, I really like this show... people should give this a try definitely worth it!

Poppy's character is very similar to her Carrie Wells character in Unforgettable which is good. The scenery is great and the writing is good, but not great. Some kinks need to be worked out as with any new show. I would suggest strengthening the supporting cast.
