Retour à Sullivan's Crossing

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.

I love the storyline of the show, I think it has great potential to grow and go far without a doubt. The first episode was a little slow (understandable while getting to know the characters), but my advice to anyone watching it is to keep going because there is a LOT of depth and background to all the characters and their storylines! I've been watching it every week as soon as it comes out. It gives me Virgin River vibes with the family history, love story, some suspenseful moments. The cast is great and I LOVE seeing Scott Patterson and Chad Michael Murray back on the screen, they absolutely blow these roles out of the park and I have been a huge fan of them for years! As a newer actress, Morgan does amazing at playing the role of Maggie and ensuring the audience feels and understands what she's feeling. As a Canadian I love that it's filmed in Canada and touches on Canadian history, not many shows have done that and done it so incredibly well. I think this show will be a really big hit with more seasons to come, and I look forward to continuing to watch!

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.

The scenery is a 10/10. This is a beautiful show to watch for the natural scenery.

I like the storyline. Maggie is a very smart and dynamic human. I loved watching her story. Sully is complex and the actor plays the broken soul with a lot of realistic emotion.

Lost one star because sometimes I just enjoy watching a story without the far fetched drama sprinkles tossed in, but I know the drama is needed to keep the audience intrigued.

I really hope a season two comes - I want Maggie and Sully to have an honest conversation, I want Maggie and Cal to have a love story, I really want to see Edna and Frank and their hopeful love story, and honestly I want to know what's going to happen with Lola, Sydney, Rob and Jackson (considering they're the ones all the "extra and out there" drama seems to come from).
