I thought the acting was pretty good. I found the story a little slow at first, but it picked up towards the end. It's worth checking out, although I'm on the fence if I will watch the next episode. I would rate the first episode a 7/10. Anyone else seen it?

I saw the first episode. I wasn’t crazy about it. I will keep watching for now. One thing that wasn’t clear is whether each episode will be a separate story, or if there is a season-long arc.

Yeah, it's pretty good. Each episode is a different crime, but the relationships continue between episodes. I notice they struggle a bit to include the librarian in the story.

There was one episode - number 3 I think - that seemed to have some sizeable logic faults, but the rest are okay. These episodes are in some ways not traditional mysteries in that they reveal the culprit pretty early. I guess it's more about the thrill of the capture, and the relationships.

Rossif Sutherland doesn't seem very much like his father or half-brother.

The third lead, Mya Lowe, doesn't seem to get as much screen time as her placement in the credits would seem to indicate. I see them trying to fix that in the later episodes.

As a fan of the old CBC Beachcombers series I give it definite thumbs up! There is it - Gibson's Point, Molly's Reach - in all its magnificent splendor!!!
