SeaQuest.  Hmm.  Which show was that?  The one from a couple of years ago,
with Darwin the Dolphin?  I'm really drawing a blank here.

Yeah, Star Trek on a Sub.  Had the guy from Jaws, also that Leonardo
DiCaprio look-alike, etc.  It lasted only two seasons, I think.  Every
episode I've seen has, well, sunk.  :-,

Cool graphics and ship models, though.  Isn't that all that matters in the
sci-fi TV market today?  Anemic plots, vapid characters, and cool special
effects.  :-P

I think it lasted 3 seasons: Two as "Seaquest DSV" and one as "Seaquest 2032".
Personally I found the first season good and plausible, the second season
extremely far-fetched (anyone remember the episode written after a Dune-fest?
;)), and the third season god-awful (Michael Ironside did *not* make a good
captain).
