Point Pleasant is a television series that aired on the Fox Network from January 19th to March 17th 2005.

Point Pleasant boasted many of the same crew behind the scenes as Fox's other shortly withdrawn series, Tru Calling. Point Pleasant received the green lights three days after production of Tru Calling ceased. 13 episodes were filmed, but due to low ratings, Fox only aired episodes 1–8 in the United States. Episodes 9–11 aired in Sweden, all episodes aired in New Zealand on back to back weekdays in mid 2007, all episodes aired in The Netherlands in 2008 and the last two episodes are included in the DVD release.

Most of the music featured in the series was replaced for the DVD release due to licensing issues.

The show's executive producer was Marti Noxon, who worked closely with Joss Whedon for several seasons on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. For this reason, Point Pleasant initially drew in many of the show's fans, but Point Pleasant had a distinct "soapy" flavor, more in the vein of shows like Melrose Place or The O.C. than Buffy. The resulting drop in viewership eventually led to the show's cancellation. However, advocates of the show point to its gothic tone, its tempered, surprisingly, subtle use of special effects, and the potential of the overall plotline as some of the solid reasons the show should have stayed on air. The plots emphasized humanity's self-centeredness and cruelty to one another as primal reasons for evil.

In 2009, episodes of the series were shown on the Chiller network, including the episodes never shown on Fox.
