    The show can afford to be relaxed in its pacing because there are 52 episodes in the first season, two of which are already streaming. That is a lot of episodes, and it engenders in the viewer the same feeling the characters share: We’re in this together for the long haul.

    Summertide is a show that you need to be in for the long haul, because the storytelling isn’t going to move that quickly. What should carry you, though, is the South African scenery, the warm multigenerational drama, and the occasional penguin spotting.
