Christina (Elisabeth Harnois) is discovered alone and lost on the beach in Point Pleasant by lifeguard Jesse Parker (Sam Page), and is taken to the home of Dr. Ben Kramer (Richard Burgi), whose family takes the girl in. Christina has come to town in search of clues to her past, and to the mother she never knew, who was a native of Point Pleasant. As Christina learns of her supernatural origins, tensions among the townspeople mount, and it becomes clear that the newcomer has powers she doesn't know how to control. Jesse finds himself drawn to her, while his girlfriend, Paula (Cameron Richardson), grows ever more jealous--and Jesse's best friend, Terry (Brent Weber), further complicates matters with his secret feelings for Paula. The arrival of Lucas Boyd (Grant Show) reveals further intimations of secrets kept, including those of Ben Kramer himself. (Verleiher-Text)

Englisch Drama, thriller, or genre crossover? Unfortunately, a little bit of everything. While the storyline initially opens up engagingly, it later unnecessarily recedes into the background, leaving much more space for a mysterious atmosphere. To catch your breath, even just before the end. I don't exactly know what to complain about because the whole series is filled with tension and significant surprises, and anytime Lucas appears, I can't help but become a fan. But this story deserved a proper resolution. One of the creators, Marti Noxon, admitted that during the filming of the finale, it was clear that there would be no continuation, and even though the escalated situation won't change many things and important plotlines will remain open, the last minutes clearly showed me that Point Pleasant wouldn't have worked with multiple seasons. In the end, considering the ongoing high satisfaction, it was a slightly surprising slight disappointment, but still an excellently directed, unpredictable, and subtly anti-church series. ()
