Anyone here ever seen Seaquest DSV?
Space: The Imagination Station, A very popular Television Channel that does Sci-fi shows like Star gate, Battlestar Galactica and star trek shows..
During the holidays they usually do a Marathon of a tv show.. On canada's day they did the star trek Voyager viewers choice marathon. For BC Day which is Civic Holiday, they did the Seaquest DSV marathon. I know nothing of this show except it tkaes place in the year 2063 and people live under the water or something.. Micheal Ironside, an actor who voiced starred in the Splinter Cell games and also had a role in Starship Troopers plays a major part in the show. There are a few others.. Even a dolphin name Darwin plays in the show.. In the intro with the credits, Executive Producers one of them is Steven Speliberg.. Anyone here who seen the show, can you please tell us what you think of this show, please.. |
SeaQuest used to be one of my favorite shows. Unfortunately, I haven’t seen it in years, so I don’t remember that much.
Basically, humans are starting to explore the deepest reaches of the oceans, the last unexplored area of the planet. Going where no man has gone before, and all that. Darwin was my favorite character. It was a good show (although it got a little strange later on...) |
I only really remember the first season of the show, where it was more like a semi-realistic depiction of the future had we taken to the seas instead of the skies. But low ratings forced the show to go in a more fantastical direction, and pretty soon it just felt like an underwater Hercules-The-Legendary-Journeys-meets-Babylon-5.
Roy "You're gonna need a bigger boat" Scheider played the Captain of the submarine, Jonathan Brandis (who committed suicide back in 2003) played the annoying as hell "smart kid" who struck me as a poor man's Wesley Crusher. Oh yeah, and Ted Raimi (a personal favorite) as a geeky spineless Lieutenant. Lots of recognizable faces, but I always remember the episodical plots as being pretty paper thin. |
I loved that show. Growing up at and in a lake (hey, it does have a major influence on you if you never really went swimming in a pool) it was only natural for us to watch this show. It was like the most natural thing to us since toast. It was very cool, but started to suck at the point where Jonathan Brandis became an Ensign and Michael Ironside took over. Weapons that just desintegrate whole islands? Yeah, as if...
I always liked that Picolo-guy, the guy with the gills. He always had that rebellious touch to him, although he actually was loyal to the seaquest-crew. And this show showed me that it was possible to have black hair and blue eyes. Thanks, Officer Hitchcock. :D |
