While Rescue: HI-Surf “brings gridiron energy to Hawaii’s North Shore,” The Floor is thought to be more appealing to a younger demographic.
Surf fans have not had much to look forward to, this bleak World Surf League Championship Tour offseason. Sure, there was the announcement that Abu Dhabi had been added to the circuit thus putting Tyler Wright’s very life in danger, but other than that, excitement has been difficult to muster.
Difficult to muster until the the new television drama Rescue: HI-Surf premiered during the end of September, lighting up the ratings and showcasing the acting talents of Makua Rothman, amongst other North Shore notables.
Well, the aforementioned surf fans were already preparing snacks etc. for the program’s over-sized episode that was set to premier directly after Super Bowl LIX on February 9th 2025.
As juicy a slot as there come.
Alas, in an extremely rare switcheroo, Fox is swapping Rescue: HI-Surf out and replacing it with Rob Lowe-fronted gameshow, The Floor. While producers had declared Rescue: HI-Surf “brings gridiron energy to Hawaii’s North Shore,” The Floor is thought to be more appealing to a younger demographic.
According to Deadline, the move also has to do with Lowe hisself. “Lowe,” it reports “also star and exec producer on Fox’s outgoing drama 9-1-1: Lone Star, has a deal with the network and has emerged as one of its top talents — active both on and off-screen, including on the promotional circuit. Additionally, The Floor is fully owned by Fox; Rescue HI-Surf comes from Warner Bros. TV, which is co-producing with Fox Entertainment.”
Surf fans back to moping whilst lighting candles for Tyler Wright’s wellbeing.
Snacks dutifully put away.
Anti-anti-depressive days.

If only I watched TV, other than sports, so I could become less intelligent than I am by watching this show
I think all of our intelligence is adequately blunted by commenting here at BG, no need for TV.

I ran for office and got shot down…
Every since the late 70’s, media has missed the mark when they try to portray certain character types. Most story lines are daydreams of nerds that never participated in physical activities, never got laid w/out paying, and never found a sane position after years of counseling. It’s useless, and poisonous. They’ve brainwashed a generation, and that should anger the victims.
You nailed It, TV is horrible as is Hollywood. My peers, I’m 61, think I’m batshit crazy because I still surf, mtn bike and climb mtns in the winter on skis while they get fat and stay drunk at their golf clubs. Much of my generation is unhealthy, drunk and lazy.

I think Rescue-Hi surf is a good show. Good characters and more of a real life portrayal of n shore than anything else I’ve seen.
