I started watching the first season on netflix and have been enjoying that show. Not sure why I missed it the first time around.
Any thoughts?
Ah Seaquest. Good old Roy Scheider as Captain Nathan Bridger. You know i watched series 1 but didn't watch anymore.I gather it got cancelled during or at the end of series 3.
I miss it some, and I just miss in general Sci-Fi based ocean related TV. "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea", "Man from Atlantis", "Seaquest", even the recent "Surface." I've always loved Sci-Fi shows involving the mysteries of the oceans.
Season 1 is really good. Season 2 was mediocre and from what I've heard, Season 3 was terrible. I wish I could see more of Seaquest season 1.
It was really great.

I've always liked Roy Scheider's acting in Jaws, 2010, Marathon Man, The French Connection.
I ordered the first season, not to sure about the rest after I read the series did "a triple back-flip over the shark" in the second season :(
The first Season got great reviews.
About as much as Rico liked "The Mist"
First season was cool but after that it was not so good.
I really enjoyed the series. I miss it. I had them all taped on VHS, then got one season on DVD. I need to get the entire series. Season one rocked, season two started slipping, and season three... well, it didn't have the budget or acting. But hey, I loved the underwater adventures! I'm with you Rico, there should be some Ocean Sci Fi going on!
My favorite was Darwin the Dolphin. I had mentioned this before on the forums but for many years I thought he was a trained animal, I was so surprised to find he was a robot. Made by the same folks that did the whales in Star Trek Four. Pretty cool.
I miss Seaquest as well. It was a shame they kept changing it around season to season.
I found the webpage of the folks who made Darwin come to life.

Yeah I seem to recall things that same way. Great 1st season, then you start adding Delouise kids and they crashed after that....see also 21 Jump Street. ;D
I liked SeaQuest. The first season was great! Season two was so-so. When it changed to SeaQuest 2030(?), the show jumped the shark. I may pick up the first season on DVD someday.
