Touted as a serialized crime romance that takes place in a town cursed by the spirit of a murdered Senator (played by Bruce Davison), “The Bay” follows the residents of Bay City as they struggle to cope after a shocking cataclysmic event leaves everyone wondering who lives and who dies.
“Growing up watching American daytime dramas in a Latino household where telenovelas were also a big part of our upbringing, I’ve always wanted to combine these two worlds and feel our creative team really helped accomplish that in these latest episodes,” said series creator, director, and showrunner, Gregori J. Martin.
“The huge success of The Bay is attributed to Gregori’s inspired vision, his genuine love of the soap opera genre and his inherent understanding of serialized storytelling. The Bay always delivers intimate dramatic stories, romance and mystery while exploring the complexity of the human condition. I’m always excited to dive into writing with Gregori because of his fearless and bold approach to traditional soap storytelling,” said co-writer and executive producer Wendy Riche (“General Hospital,” “Port Charles”).
Recorded at Associated Television Studios in Burbank and on location throughout Southern California, this season, fans can look forward to some exciting location sequences taped in Puerto Rico.
