Ever since we finished watching Ransom Canyon, we've been looking for a replacement American drama series, and we think we've found our new obsession thanks to the release of Netflix's The Waterfront.

The eight-part series was created by Kevin Williamson, inspired by true events and follows the life of the Buckley family who run a major fishing and restaurant business in the North Carolina town of Havenport. However, as the business struggles to stay a float the family take drastic action to keep their reputations and bank balances safe.

With all of the family being involved in the business, you can expect to see a lot of secrets, betrayal and a lot of tension. But before we dive in too much, let's get ourselves acquainted with the family dynamic and crucially how each member of the Buckley family is related to each other.
