For decades, first-responder dramas have captivated audiences, and helping that trend continue this fall is Resuce: HI-Surf. The brand-new series helps fill out broadcast TV’s fall 2024-2025 line-up and is set against the backdrop of a beautiful beach.
However, don’t be fooled by the oceanic scenery as it turns out to be the North Shore of O’ahu, "the most famous and dangerous stretch of coastline in the world." Due to the danger that looms, there are plenty of opportunities for beachgoers to find themselves in need of help. Thankfully the first responders in the area are up to the task of performing daring rescues. Sound interesting?
Here’s everything we know about Rescue: HI-Surf.
