Sullivan's Crossing

I agree that the first episode started slow, but it definitely picks up and makes up for it in the rest of the season. This show and the characters are so relatable with real life issues that other shows just don't touch on without being pushed in your face. The last episode was heartbreaking with so many things coming together. I felt so connected to all 3 main characters and their stories.

I love that this show is filmed and set in Nova Scotia with all it's natural beauty. If you like this season support it by recommending it sooner than later to your friends and family. Follow it on social media and leave your IMDB ratings.

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 wasn't convinced after the first episode, but coming back to it later, I binged the rest of season one within a day.

The heart of this show are its characters and the bond between them. It's about reconnecting, meeting new people, sharing memories and experiences, learning and letting go.

Don't expect a big story; expect big emotions. This show will make you think about the important people in your life. It will make you feel all the feels. And the scenery is so beautiful it makes you wish you were there in Sullivan's Crossing.

Oh, the nostalgia factor with Chad Michael Murray is also a huge plus.

If you like Virgin River you'll love Sullivan's Crossing.

Plotlines are predictable but the character development has come a long way from the beginning. Sully is a character you can really pull for. Morgan Kohan is really settling in to the leading role. Being able to lean on veteran actors like Tom Jackson, Scott Patterson and Chad Michael Murray has given her time to lean in to her character and Maggie has become relatable and warm, something not there at the start.

If you love the books you may not embrace the differences but that's not unusual. Nice scenery of the Canadian Maritimes...

BTW DON'T read the lone critic review unless you want to laugh. Not sure what show they think they're reviewing but Nova Scotia looks nothing like the Rocky Mountains...

I tried but I'm out...this show is so depressing that it's impossible to invest in any of the characters. No one smiles, laughs or experiences any joy, it's dark and sad all the time. The actress who plays the paramedic (also the annoying baby mama on Virgin River) is terrible. I am a Scott Patterson fan and grew up close the area where the show is shot, but the constant sorrow and everyone's inability to have adult/meaningful conversations about their feelings/issues is too much. I haven't read the books so I can't compare but I was really looking forward to the show and am super disappointed it didn't seem to make any progress but instead just added one personal crisis after another to the point it was hard to root for anyone.
