Synopsis

Pacific Drive is an Australian television series The series was conceived as a flamboyant, melodramatic soap opera and dealt with the lives of wealthy Australians living on the Gold Coast. Although criticised for being an Australian copy of the American soap opera Melrose Place, its outrageous storylines - including corporate scheming, various affairs, serial killers and a lesbian love triangle - saw the series gain a cult reputation.

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Ashley Licuria (TysonBoi) When the Series began in January 1996, rich socialite Sonia Kingsley was run down by a car while jogging on the beach, even though it took around 30 episodes before we found out the killer, the show introduced us to a cast of 12 other characters, some we loved and some we loved to hate. Towards the end of the first season viewers were treated to a long running serial killer tale and thats where the series turned to high camp melodrama and intrigue! Never a show to take itself seriously, Pacific Drive never really found itself to be an instant hit show, but had many loyal fans who managed to keep up with it until the final episode aired in 2001. One interesting fact was that had it allowed to be screened without being constantly moved from time-slot to time-slot, the whole series would of been over in 18 months, instead it took nearly 5 years to screen all 391 episodes. Some memorable story lines were Zoe being held captive by her deranged flatmate, Bethany contracting HIV, Trey & Amber's forbidden affair, and of course the serial killer tale that knocked off 3 major characters. RIP Pacific Drive and all those who sailed in her!!
dragorsi It was one of my fave soap operas in the past. I really enjoyed the episodes, the characters and the storryline. My fave character was Tim, I was really sad about what happened to him. I'm really happy that I finally find the soap opera's name, cos I only knew the hungarian one (you know it was "Parti sétány"). :)
all_saints4eva Ok, Well I was really young when the show went to year at first, and I can't imagine my mother allowing a 7 yr old to watch a show as raunchy as pacific drive can get at some stages (I don't think she really approves of me watching it now). But then i started watching it last year, g-coding it each day before i go to school, and putting it on the second i got in the door, orinally becase my favourite actress Libby Tanner was in it, but more so because I got addicted to this light entertainment after school. The storylines, especially certain ones, were so far-fetched it was good to have a laugh, before attacking the books. The show is corny but I love it. I cannot help it. and I know i shouldn't... but it has provided hours of entertainment for me, and all of my friends as I tell them the daily storylines, each weirder than the next. Pacific Drive is legendary!! It has great acting, despite the bizarre story's. My tribute to the show should be online some day soon, as I feel this show deserves some recognition..despite all the bad press. *Nikki* 16.
melinda_faulkner ***slight spoilers*** Between endless golden beaches and crystal blue harbours runs Pacific Drive. More a lifestyle than a street, Pacific Drive is Australia's best address: heaven on earth. A vibrant city pulsating with you, glamour and intrigue. This is the place where the rich and the beautiful come to live, work and play: where dreams merge with reality and where sun, sand surf make the ultimate backdrop to ambition and obsession. But not all that happens on Pacific Drive takes place in the sun. In the shadows behind the high-rise, the brutal murder of one of the coast's most powerful identities, will have ramifications for all of those drawn to the wealth, excitement and power of Pacific Drive. Sonia Kingsley, beautiful, rich and powerful, called Pacific Drive her home. Her footprints making her territory in the sand, her wealth and influence forging her place in the community. But when this darling of the social pages is killed while taking her morning jog, a long list of suspects emerges.
