A Brilliant Conflict

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Darin
One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Like most of the other posters I remember watching this show as a kid. Every Sunday on the United Kingdoms Independent Telavision Channel (the U.K.s only commercial station at the time). Loved the characters especially Nick and Relic who's seemingly constant feuding was one of the aspects of the show that made it so engaging. Of course the scenery of the coast of British Colombia was also amazing. The main episode I remember is the one where two of the teenage characters get stuck on an Island and the girl goes into a Diabetic coma. Alos to the person who posted about the name of Nick's boat it was indeed the Persephone, named after the Greek Goddess I imagine. I am now going to try and get this series on D.V.D.

I as a kid used to watch this all the time. I don't really remember to much of it other than us kids being all excited when my father had appeared on an episode as Relic's brother or something to that matter but then we would try not to miss an episode after that. We still talk about that one episode to this day and wonder our dad LOLOLOLOL.So it was kinda neat coming across this post i just had to comment on it.If anybody may recall that episode please fill in some of the blanks for me, would be thankfulThanks

Sunday nights in Canada were never complete until "The Beachcombers" were over. Now, one can watch the show in all it's glory on TV Land Canada, Thank God for the CRTC and their Canadian Content rules or this could be a lost gem. While a graduate student in the US, I was surprised at the number of American students who were close to the border and fell in love with "The Beachcombers", I even remember the commercials that Bruno Gerussi used to do for McCain's back then. It is indeed sad that Nick, Molly, and Relic are no longer with us as that would have made for a better TV reunion movie. Thanks again to TV Land Canada, your continued support of "The Beachcombers" is graciously appreciated by the fans.

I grew up with The Beachcombers. As soon as the school holidays came I would excitedly check the tv guide to see if my favourite show would be on again. The Beachcombers is yet another example of the excellent quality of distinctly Canadian shows only the CBC could make. "Stoney Plains" and "Ritter's Cove" were also very enjoyable shows. I fell in love with The Beachcombers...even ol' Relic, and developed a fascination for stunningly beautiful Canada. The Beachcombers is a wonderful, feel good show...loads of good fun and laughs and a little sadness. It was very easy to become addicted to. I can honestly say it is still the most enjoyable series I have ever watched and I think always will be.
