This series would have gotten a four star review from me, except for the sad fact that it simply doesn't have an ending. I understand that shows can be canned on short notice, and it takes a lot of money to shoot an episode. In my opinion, however, it's a bit unethical to rent/sell a box set of a series that is incomplete. The final episode (no spoilers) leaves a number of loose ends that were clearly meant to provide a starting point for a second season. It would have been nice for the network to pony up the dough for even a fifteen-minute "wrap-up" bonus feature if they expected consumers to pony up the dough for the box set, but no such luck. It can be argued, perhaps, that the crux of the series is about a choice, and that the choice does in fact get made by the end of the last episode, but this is an oversimplification and leaves the viewer far from satisfied. To its credit, there is a lot going on in this series, and it deserved a proper conclusion. If you can live with that, and you won't feel cheated of your time and money, then by all means, give this a look. The dialogue is witty and refreshingly realistic, the plot twists are well done, the evil guys are believably wicked, there are some genuinely spooky and intense moments, and the conflict in the main character seems genuine right up until the last episode, where it becomes a little bit forced. To sum it up, it's "O.C. meets The Omen." There is an element of the "who's sleeping with who" factor that only occasionally distracts from the show's strengths. Everyone is also rich, except for The Poor Kid. And naturally, a lot of time is spent at the beach. If I thought that brisk DVD sales would lead to the show's return, I'd heartily encourage you to buy Point Pleasant, as I'd really enjoy another season of it. As that seems unlikely, consider yourself duly warned that this promising package is marred by the lack of a conclusion.
