I remember being fond of the first season, but it was definitely “wet star trek,” complete with a Tiger Beat suitable version of Wesley (RIP Jonathan Brandis, who got chewed up and spit out by Hollywood), especially by the end of season 2 when I stopped watching, apparently along with everyone else.
i just recently downloaded this/added it to my library last year. it did not age well. it was pretty awesome back in the day, but its kinda hard to watch now
how… ho wwas this?
This show is pretty fire back in the day, they had some hyper intelligent dolphin doing recon for them
Named Darwin. They had some way of translating his dolphin sounds to a weird synthesized voice that was probably voiced by an actor.
I only watched it because I fell in love with Stacey Haiduk watching her as Lana Lang in Superboy
The first season was really good. The second was labored at times. The third was… something else.
But it’s got Mark Hamill so that’s not nothing.
Was he the dolphin?
No, he was a shapeshifting reptiloid alien trying to get back home

I watched all the seasons.
It was kind of poetic that a show about a submarine went so far off the deep end.
Did they ever jump a shark though?
There were dozens of us who watched season 3.
Dozens!

I did exactly the same thing.
I feel obligated to subject myself to this. But I appreciate the warning.
I’ve been wanting to as well out of nostalgia but I know it will be bad by today’s standards, or even adult standards in general.
So I’m not going to do it… Yet.
