For ten years, the attention of the youth audience completely belonged to the series "Beverly Hills 90210", but in 2000 the audience saw the long-awaited finale. It was obvious to Fox's producers that the teen drama was generating high ratings. However, a worthy replacement appeared three years later - the actors of "The Lonely Hearts" again took us to the world of spoiled teenagers.

The premiere episode attracted more than seven million viewers. In the center of the plot is the high society of the resort town of Newport Beach, where a young man with a criminal past accidentally ends up.
