Teen rowing drama Crew Girl has spent two weeks on Netflix’s Top 10 list, driven heavily by a central love triangle between lead character Teagan Tao and varsity rowers Josh Regis and Cam Dillinger, according to Netflix reporting.
The Central Love Triangle Driving Crew Girl on Netflix
When family scandal forces teen rowing phenom Teagan Tao (Miku Martineau) to relocate from Los Angeles to Massachusetts’ Easton Prep, she becomes coxswain for the varsity boys’ crew team, as reported by Netflix. Throughout the first season, Teagan finds herself romantically entangled with two distinct rowers: entitled trust fund baby Josh Regis (Samuel Braun) and brooding mechanic Cam Dillinger (Kyle Clark). According to Netflix coverage, the actors and showrunner Vivian Lin note that neither relationship is fully resolved by the finale, leaving audiences guessing about Teagan’s ultimate choice.
Behind the Improvised Finale Moments With Samuel Braun
Actor Samuel Braun revealed to Netflix that a key moment in the Crew Girl finale between Josh and Teagan was entirely unscripted. After Teagan seeks refuge in the boathouse following tension at the fall formal, Josh finds her and the two share a vulnerable interaction where he confides in her about his crew-ending heart condition. According to Braun, the final lingering glance as Josh exits the boathouse was improvised on the spot to leave viewers wondering if there is still something to explore between them.
Kyle Clark Breaks Down Cam’s Season 2 Potential Tension
Actor Kyle Clark told Netflix that while he feels confident in Teagan and Cam’s connection, a potential second season introduces several complications. Cam has taken over the stroke seat, and Clark noted that there might be emotional tension surrounding how his character handles that position. Furthermore, Cam remains unaware of the full extent of Teagan’s connection with Josh, a revelation that could reshape the dynamics between the characters if the series returns.
Did you know? Unlike many popular teen streaming series, Crew Girl is not adapted from an existing book series, meaning fans cannot read ahead to spoil Teagan’s final choice between Josh and Cam, according to Netflix.
