The Following Story Contains Some Spoilers For The Waterfront Season 1.

when The First Bits Of Advertising For Netflix’s The Waterfront Started To Come out, it Was Interesting That The Streaming Giant
Was Advertising It As
“From The Creator Of Dawson’s Creek And Scream.”

Now, That Is A Fact-Both Of Those Projects Are Creations Directly From The Mind Of Master Screenwriter Kevin Williamson. But Usually Projects Tend To Go In One
Direction Or Another; You Can Be either A Dawson’s Creek Or You Can Be A Scream, But it’s Not Often You Can Be Both.

Well, Folks, Let Me Tell You From First Hand Experience: The Waterfront Is Both, And Then Some. Williamson’s New Series Is Both A Soapy,
Relationship-led Drama-Fulfilling The Dawson’s Part Of The Equation-And Also Filled With Brutal Violence And Thrills-Filling In The Scream
Portion.

Take Those Bits Of Williamson Magic And Add It To A Fairly Familiar story Of Family Empire (Think Ozark, Yellowstone, Succession, Etc), And
The Waterfront Is A Clear Smash For Netflix And Williamson.Each Episode Is Filled With Drama, Action, And Strong Characters.With Williamson
As A Showrunner,The Show Is Well Paced And Always Knows Where Its Going.

And The Basic Plot is Simple Enough: The Buckley Family Is In Debt, And Involved In Some serious And Dangerous Drug Smuggling Operations consequently.This
Brings Harlan (Holt McCallany) back Into The Mix despite A Drinking Problem, A Heart Condition, And His Own Soft Retirement.

The Season Becomes A Drama That Is As Much About The Buckley Family Themselves-The Dynamics At Play Are Juicy, Soapy, And Make You Want To See what
Happens Next-As About Their Criminal Dealings.

Netflix

things Leave Off In A Notably Delicate Place. While The Problem Of The Psychopathic Drug Lord Grady (Topher Grace) has Been Solved,A Whole New Can
Of Worms-In The Parker Family-Has Been Opened.

And On Top Of That, Belle (Maria Bello) Has To Take Control Of The Business In Order For The Parker Family To Be Happy. Will Harlan be Happy About That? Uh,
Considering He Told His Son Cane (Jake Weary) That He Always Wanted It To Be A Father/Son Business,Probably Not.

Belle Is Also Working With Cane And the Parker Family To Sell Off Much Of The Buckley Waterfront Land For What Will, Presumably, Be Built Up. They Need
The Money,But Harlan is Not Going to Be Ok With That Either.

“in The First Season, Harlan Is The Patriarch of The Family, And Belle Has Always taken her Place, puppeting Him And Controlling What Happens To The
Buckley Family Behind The Scenes,” Williamson Told TV Line In An interview.

“All Of Her Little Shenanigans have Been Done Behind Harlan, And In The Shadows Of Harlan, And Now She’s Ready To Shove Him Out Of The Way, Stand front And
Center, And Really Take The Reins.”

In Any Event, There’s Lots To Be Dealt With in The Fallout Of The waterfront Season 1. But We Don’t Know Just Yet When-Or
If-We’ll be getting A Second Season. here’s What We Do Know So far.
