Op-Ed: ‘The Bay’ is the greatest digital drama series of 2020

Published

December 31, 2020

The Bay, created by showrunner Gregori J. Martin, took home four 2020 Daytime Emmy Awards, which included wins for “Outstanding Digital Drama Series” and “Outstanding Directing Team.”

It was one of the first shows to resume production this summer during the COVID-19 pandemic. Season 6 was one of the best yet, if not its greatest season to date. There were many stand-out and impressive acting performances, and the audience was in for quite the wild ride.

Each episode this season was longer (over 30 minutes in duration) and the storylines were darker and more intense. They dealt with culturally and socially important relevant issues such as the Coronavirus pandemic, police brutality, and the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. Potent storytelling at its finest. Season 6 garners an A rating. Well done.
