The Waterfront Season 1 Review
‘The Waterfront’: Netflix’s New Crime Drama Feels Awfully Watered Down. The new show about a powerful North Carolina family facing tough times and new threats, has some decent acting, but is a very basic, bland genre stab. Kevin Williamson knows how to create compelling TV shows. He has, after all, been doing it for years, stretching back to the days of ‘Wasteland’ and ‘Glory Days,’ scoring the chance to make series off the back of the success of his scripts for the early ‘Scream’ movies.
Now Netflix has opened its wallet to snap up his skills, and the result is a show that feels very much like a number of the crime dramas that the streaming service has looked to launch before and particularly since the success of Taylor Sheridan’s ‘Yellowstone’.
