Paradise Falls was a weekly soap opera shown nationally on the Showcase channel in Canada, starting in 2001. It is set in a summer cottage community in Central Ontario.
Production
Shot entirely in Ontario cottage country — very specific energy.
Writing
Paula J. Smith's unhinged soapy plotting, episode after episode.
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Paradise Falls represented Showcase's bold attempt to create homegrown trashy drama for Canadian audiences tired of importing American soaps.
Despite 103 episodes, the series remains nearly impossible to find legally — making it a genuine lost artifact of Canadian television history.
