Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

jehaccess6 I liked this mini-series so much, I watched it in one go! All the female characters were interesting and basically people you would like to know, despite their human frailties. The men came off much the worse in this production. The female writers obviously had an Axe to grind in their opinion of the males of the species. Still, the young female eye candy kept the male audience engaged.I was mostly interested in watching Julia Ormond again after watching her in 'Sabrina' about 100 times. She has changed drastically over the 10 years between the two productions, having had a baby the year before 'Beach Girls'. Julia mastered an American accent for this effort, never even attempting not to sound British for 'Sabrina'.Rob Lowe portrayed 'Jack Kilvert' the most self-centered, insensitive, nasty-mouthed, jerk imaginable. The female writers must have chuckled over handing Rob the script to portray such an unlovable character. At least they didn't have him display an unhealthy interest in under-aged girls as happened in real life a few years ago. The script at least allowed 'Jack' to mellow over the course of the production, absorbing wisdom at the feet of his teen-aged daughter 'Nell' and old flame 'Stevie'.There are few positives in the male characters here. They only improve when they realize that they are hopeless cases devoid of any virtue until they submit their wills to the infinitely wiser females in their life. Only the few hopeless Neanderthal males never realize what bliss they are missing by refusing to bow the knee.I watched some of the lifeguard scenes with a vague sense of familiarity that troubled me. Then it hit me, these scenes could easily have appeared on 'Baywatch'. I half expected Pamela Anderson to saunter past the camera. Still, 'Beach Girls' rises firmly above the abysmal level of 'Baywatch', faint praise as that is.

iycediamonds very good mini series, I didn't think I would like the show but I did. Does anyone know if there is going to be a rerun of this mini series and if so when we it be. Too bad it wasn't on the TV line up. I wondered what Rob Lowe was going to do after West Wing I hope he gets involved with another mini series. The series was perfectly cast. It was extremely enjoyable to watch. Unfortunately I missed the last show in the series. I truly hope the show comes back with some reruns for those of us who missed some of the shows. It was one of the more enjoyable mini series. TV land needs more shows along this line. I hope they bring more to TV land.

wlynnr I found Beach girls to be refreshing and interesting. Would love to see it come back as a weekly series. The reality shows are jokes. There are a few good comedy shows on and a few good mystery shows such as LOST, etc. This could be a great weekly series to show how the girls deal with the teen years and go into adult-hood. It would also be nice to see where the relationship could go for Jack and Stevie. Also could deal with more of the past of the previous beach girls with the relationships they had among each other. Was interesting to find out that Jack & Stevie had a relationship before he married. Life at the beach can be refreshing to what's on TV now.

bizybea2002 I wish they would make a real weekly series and run it for at least 52 weeks. I think the crew of actors are great in the Beach Girls. It is a Good old down to earth American Life Style Story. I could watch it every Night. Thank You for letting me vote and comment on the show.I think more down to earth shows should be on TV. We have more than 100 channels of nothing but News and silly shows, we need some Stories with some real life type plots. Anyone with a Family and Teanagers should appreciate a show like this. I think Beach Girls could be the best thing that has happened to TV since Dallas. We are due some real Life like shows and if i were allowed to vote on this one twice, I would.Bea
