Fox’s hit drama “Rescue HI-Surf” has topped TVLine’s recent poll, with fans voicing their overwhelming support for the show’s renewal. The series, which premiered in September 2024, follows the thrilling adventures of Harlan “Sonny” Jennings and his team of lifeguards on the North Shore of Oahu. Despite its success, the show faced uncertainty when Fox replaced its prime post-Super Bowl slot with a trivia game show.

This decision marked the beginning of the series’ troubles, with reports suggesting that “Rescue HI-Surf” is now on the brink of cancellation. The potential cancellation has raised concerns not only among fans but also within Hawaii’s film and TV industry. Executive Producer Marc Porterfield emphasized the importance of the show, stating, “We have an industry here, a thriving industry, that has families that pay taxes and their kids go to school here.

That’s why this is very important to get ‘Rescue: HI-Surf’ renewed for season two.”

The series has reportedly injected $34 million into the local economy and provided $32 million in wages to 2,100 cast and crew members.

Industry impact of potential cancellation

If canceled, it would mark the first time in 25 years that Hawaii has no film or television production underway.

In an effort to save the show, fans can now participate in an online poll to spare “Rescue HI-Surf” from termination. Supporters argue that the show’s picturesque portrayal of Hawaii and engaging storylines boost the local economy and provide employment opportunities. As the fate of “Rescue HI-Surf” hangs in the balance, fans eagerly await Fox’s decision.
