In May 2023, FOX said goodbye to its most popular scripted series, 9-1-1, due to outside studio licensing costs (that show moved to ABC). The 9-1-1: Lone Star spin-off series was subsequently cancelled with the current fifth season. Now, the network has introduced its own action drama series. Will Rescue: HI-Surf also be a big hit? Will it be cancelled or renewed for season two? Stay tuned.
An action drama series created by Matt Kester, the Rescue: HI-Surf TV show stars Robbie Magasiva, Arielle Kebbel, Adam Demos, Kekoa Kekumano, Alex Aiono, and Zoe Cipres. Shawn Hatosy, Ian Anthony Dale, and Sea Shimooka recur. The story follows the personal and professional lives of the heavy-water lifeguards who patrol and protect the North Shore of O’ahu — the most famous and dangerous stretch of coastline in the world. Captain Harlan “Sonny” Jennings (Magasiva) and his core team of lifeguards save lives in the difficult and often life-threatening conditions of Hawaii’s Seven Mile Miracle. Sonny’s lieutenant, Emily “Em” Wright (Kebbel), and veteran lifeguards Will Ready (Demos) and Laka Hanohano (Kekumano) monitor the dangerous Hawaiian waters. Meanwhile, new lifeguard recruits Hina Alexander (Cipres) and Kainalu Emerson (Aiono) have a flirtatious dynamic with one another as they compete to join Sonny’s district. Between diving headfirst into difficult and life-threatening conditions to rescuing injured and in need of help beachgoers and surfers, the lifeguards are also dealing with their own personal issues.
