Although most of the ABC summer schedule is filled with unscripted fare, the network does run some scripted summer series for the year-round drama audience. The latest entry in that category is the Reef Break TV show. Does the first season of this new summertime series have what the warm-weather audience craves? Will Reef Break be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned. *Status update below.
An ABC drama, Reef Break stars Poppy Montgomery, Ray Stevenson, Desmond Chiam, Melissa Bonne, and Tamala Shelton. The series centers on Cat Chambers (Montgomery), a former thief. These days, she works as the fixer for the governor of a beautiful Pacific Island paradise — “The Reef.” Thanks to her checkered past, Cat has a deep understanding of criminals and the crimes they commit. As a real risk-taker, she runs toward adventure, not from it.

*12/14/19 update: ABC has cancelled Reef Break after one season.
I liked the show. It deserves a second season. Nice to see a not so perfect female show.
No Wonder you guys are losing TV watchers, you keep cancelling all the good shows. Reef Break was a great show (My husband even liked it and he doesn’t watch a lot of TV.
So disappointed to find out that Reef Break will not be renewed. Loved Cats attention to details and her kick ass attitude! Also her mentoring of the young surfer girl to work hard and earn your place. Great show! A refreshing break from all the game, reality and heavy drama shows! Maybe it needs a second season for more people to discover it!
Please renew. I love this show. Please every thing on now is the same old thing all of the time. So bored. This show kept me coming back. You always do this to the shows that are different. Let people get the word out about it before you give up on it.
