O Píer

Alright, so The Waterfront was actually pretty decent. I wasn't expecting a masterpiece, but it kept me interested enough to binge through the whole thing. The story is solid - nothing crazy original, but it's got that classic crime drama vibe that's just kinda satisfying to watch.

The ending? Not gonna lie, it didn't blow my mind, but it tied things up nicely without feeling rushed or annoying. You get some closure on the main plot, and a few loose ends left to keep you thinking. I like that balance.

The vibe reminds me a bit of Boardwalk Empire or Peaky Blinders - moody, gritty, with a lot of tension and some slick cinematography. Definitely not a happy-go-lucky show, so if you want light stuff, skip it. But if you're into slow-burning crime drama with some cool character moments, it's your jam. Actors did their thing, no huge Hollywood names, but everyone felt natural and believable. The lead was especially good at playing that tough but kinda broken dude. No overacting or cheesy lines, which I appreciated.

Would I recommend it? Yeah, if you like crime dramas and want something chill to watch. It's not the best thing ever, but it's solid and entertaining. Just don't expect some groundbreaking story or crazy plot twists.

So yeah, my personal score would be around a 7/10. Worth a watch, but not something I'd rave about for weeks.

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.

The storyline has been compelling so far, although it sometimes seems contrived-almost as if Smurf and Billy simply abandoned the other kids and took Craig to live in North Carolina or somewhere similar. In my opinion, a spin-off of Animal Kingdom would have worked better than launching an entirely new show with nearly the same premise. Even so, the series remains quite strong overall, demonstrating solid writing and engaging character development that keep you interested each episode. Hope season two is even better. I have 78 characters that still need to be used so I am typing random stuff at this point.

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?

I've been looking forward to The Waterfront ever since I first saw the trailer for this. I started watching this with my brother the day it came out and binged all 8 episodes in a day. I know but I've been sick and had nothing else to do. I loved it. The Waterfront is based off a true story about the Buckley family and their crumbling North Carolina fishing empire. Their on the verge of losing everything and to regain control of their empire they have to get back into transporting drugs and dealing with some very dangerous people. The entire cast is amazing, led by the always good Holt McCallany. He's good in just about everything he does but Jake Weary (Animal Kingdom), Melissa Benoist (Supergirl) and Danielle Campbell (Supernatural) all give star turning performances that will definitely lead to bigger things for all of them. I can't recommend this series enough.
