Almost Paradise (2020)
Almost Paradise is Amazing
As a man starting over in a new place, the starring character Alex Walker of Almost Paradise, former US DEA agent embraces the culture and people of his new home. Not always sure of himself, but ever trying, Alex ends up teaming with local police unofficially to solve high octane cases against his doctor's orders for peace and rest. Soon his health issues resolve as Alex immerses himself in island life and crime. Visits from family members add to comedic moments as well as some of the most powerful dramatic moments in the show. Christian Kane brings his formidable arsenal of talents to the starring role, blending drama, comedy and action flawlessly. As always, perfectionist Kane insists on performing his own stunts including learning underwater diving, to add continuity to action scenes . Samantha Richelle, Art Acuna and Nonie Buencamino add incredible talent and heart as costars. The ultimate star however is the island of Cebu itself, the people, scenery, color are a part of the show that makes Almost Paradise stand out. Dean Devlin, show creator and CEO of Electric Entertainment has done it again. Bringing Almost Paradise to be the first American TV show fully filmed in the Philippines, with a Filipino cast and crew is stroke of genius Devlin is known for. Almost Paradise is just the thing to take you on an exciting vacation from your couch.
