South Beach

I can't believe you could say such cruel things about this show! I absolutely love it and hope that the first season comes out on DVD! It's been the best show I have seen in a while...Some people may not like it but some really do so please don't cancel it! The acting is great and the story line is awesome! The last episode, when Alex goes to the graveyard made me cry. It's a great dramatized show and I also know others who really like it too! If you don't like it, you could always watch another show...I will try and do whatever I can to get South Beach's first season on DVD...By the way, I think that you should add a good comment about the show on the front too...if it's just a bad comment, that's encouraging people not to watch it and I think that both sides should have a say in it

This show is so awful, it makes the other south beach show look good, the acting is terrible, the storyline is completely confused, the writing is bad and I Was wondering how the catering truck is horrible with this project. I Don't Hate all Shows based on Miami, Miami Vice & CSI: Miami had beautiful style, flashy looks and beautiful image, this one has none of that, just boring dialogue, idiotic looks and pathetic production. Thankfully you won't see don Johnson & Phillip Michael Thomas appear on this thing, this is a failure and it will be a failure for decades to come, this is An Early candidate on my list of the worst TV shows of 2006.

Want an TV Show set in Miami, go rent Miami Vice on DVD.

Set in South Florida's world of models, pools, beaches, drugs, gangsters and nightclubs this is another stab at copying the success of Baywatch, but adding some sub-Miami Vice elements for that prime-time soap measure.

It's also executive-produced by Jennifer Lopez, which explains why it looks like nothing more than one of her music videos. But despite virtually everyone on screen being stunningly good looking it's all fur coat and no knickers. Everyone is a hunk or a babe ready to flash the flesh, but nobody gets involved in anything remotely resembling a decent plot and the dialogue is flimsier than the thong bikinis some of the women wear. If that's all you need then tune in, but when it first aired in America, few did, and it ranked 152nd out of the 156 original series produced for network television in the 2005-06 season – and was then dropped after eight episodes.

In LA last year I found myself on the beach where Baywatch was once filmed. It was 10am and few others were about so I ran along the sand in slow motion, just like 'The Hoff' used to do. Then I noticed that coming the other way was someone else doing exactly the same thing. We laughed, and (slowly) carried on our way. Baywatch might have been corny but it was a guilty pleasure loved by millions because it was light-hearted fun. South Beach will only have people running for the remote control, and almost certainly not in slow motion.

The pilot episode almost made me not want to watch the second episode but the cast (Vincent and Matt) are good looking so I figured why not give it a chance. There is a lot of half naked girls though, I think if they want to target girls and guys they need to tone down the amount of models they have on and focus on just a few instead. Tonight's episode was good so I'm thinking it's going to get better with every episode. The story line seems to need a chance to build up and I think that will come with a few more episodes. I'm hooked enough to watch next week. It is kind of like an evening soap opera, with a twist. I think they did a good job casting and I hope they add a few more steady characters to add some spice to it. I'll keep watching and see where it goes, beats watching reality TV!

I initially started watching South Beach when I heard that Vanessa Williams would be one of the stars. From day one, I was hooked. My husband even started watching it with me! I haven't given a shot to any new shows on UPN since it's cancellation in 1999 of the amazing show, Legacy (starring Sharon Leal, Grayson McCouch, Jeremy Garrett, Lea Moreno). It is REALLY hard to get over a show when they just cut you off like that, and you have absolutely no closure. BTW...still trying to get a copy of Legacy on tape or DVD...if you know where I could obtain that...PLEASE contact me!

South Beach brings out the good and the bad, the beautiful and not so beautiful aspects of life in South Florida. I personally love Miami, so the setting is terrific. I think that the cast has done a fabulous job. Lee Thompson Young has portrayed his character well, as a young man who is desperately trying to make a name and build a career for himself and come from beneath his mother's shadow. The scripts I have found to be very interesting, and I haven't enjoyed an evening soap this much since the days of Melrose Place.

I really had hoped that UPN saw the value in this show. However, I've noticed that it hasn't been on since February, and is on hiatus for an undetermined time period. I suppose that means that the new CW will unfortunately drop the show. If this happens, many disappointed fans will be the result. Personally, I will not give a second chance to any new show that the CW creates should this occur. It is frustrating to get into a show that is good, and then have it just disappear. I hope the cast knows though how much the show entertained, and that there are fans who support keeping this show alive - AND this is despite the fact that it is associated with the infamous Miss JLo...
