Dolphin Cove is an American-Australian drama television series created by Allan Marcil, set in Sea World, Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia that aired on CBS from January 21 to March 11, 1989 for eight episodes.




Synopsis


The show centers on widowed researcher Michael Larson and his two teenage children: daughter Katie, and her elder brother David. The Larsons move to Australia, after Michael is hired by wealthy industrialist Baron Trent to help perfect man-to-dolphin communications. To this end, Michael begins working with two dolphins named Slim and Delbert.
Michael's wife died in an automobile accident roughly a year ago. David does his best to fit in with the Aussie lifestyle, and at his new school, but finds it tricky. Katie, who was in the car with her mother during the fatal crash, was not injured physically but has been an elective mute (capable of speaking but refusing) ever since. Initially, Katie distrusts her new therapist, Alison Mitchell. Although Katie is not comfortable around most people, she promptly hits it off with Slim and Delbert. Moreover, Katie soon discovers that she has a telepathic means of communicating with both dolphins; thus she succeeds where her father and Trent have failed.
Also working for Trent is Didge, an Aboriginal Australian. Didge acts as Michael's assistant, besides being a mentor and (when called for) bodyguard to David and Katie.
Kevin Mitchell, Alison's son, is one of David's classmates and frequently coaches David through life at their school.
The series, filmed on location at Seaworld on Australia's Gold Coast, was co-created by Peter Benchley.
