Netflix continues nostalgia-baiting with a teen drama that blends 'Goonies' and 'The O.C.' with a North Carolina setting. Read TheFienPrint's review of OuterBanks:
— and maybe your affection for those titles will carry you through the long stretches during which Set in the Outer Banks of North Carolina — filmed with acceptable replication in South Carolina locations —Our heroes are the Pogues, the blue-collar kids on an island fiercely divided between the haves and have-nots.
If Pogues are the scrappy poor kids in this landscape, their rivals are the Kooks, children of the resident upper class. Sarah Cameron , briefly formerly Kiara's best friend and now her rival, is perhaps the queen of the Kooks, dating ultra-preppy Topper , a WASP-y jerk so repellent he makes William Zabka's pre-version of Johnny Lawrence look reasonable and endearing.
So… plot! John B and his friends find several clues related to his dad's disappearance, clues that might lead them to the Royal Merchant and its life-changing bounty. Or maybe they'll just get caught up in increasingly serious conflict with the Kooks or in various storms that knock out power for much of the region so that even thoughis set in the present day, reduced availability of cell phones and computers means it could just as easily be 1984.looks like nostalgia feels.
That the Kooks are all cartoonish doesn't necessarily mean that the Pogues are marvelously developed characters.
