excellent
The movie is great, showed up exactly how it described in good condition with fast service.
The movie is enjoyable
What a crock!
People should be embarrassed by this hackneyed cliched drivel. It is very telling that each season the network reworked it trying to find an audience. Every tired old scifi cliche is dragged out and tried in an attempt to find an audience. How it ever got three seasons is a mystery. Today it wouldn't get three episodes.
Review
As an avid sci-fi fan, I very much liked this season. As a rabid seaQuest fan, I didn't.
Hard to explain to someone who has never seen the series. But I'll try.
I really loved the characters in season one, and their relationships with one another. But many didn't come back for a second season.
So instead of the in-your-face, powerful-when-needed screen presence of Dr. Kristin Westphalen, a believable love interest for the Captain, believable surrogate mother for Lucas, we get some mind-reading, less than steller character called Dr. Wendy Smith. I didn't like that the writers tried to involve her with Bridger - thankfully, it didn't work. And I didn't like that Westphalen's departure wasn't mentioned at all. (and neither were any of the other characters who departed) With the season one finale, and the character's growing releationship with Bridger, I expected to hear at least a small mention of her.
Also departing were Engineer Katie Hitchcock, Ben Krieg, and Chief Crocker. The studio wanted younger actors . . . . These characters and their histories were so well developed, I think this was a bad move on the studio's part.
They were replaced by talented actors, but, after caring about what happened to the characters from season 1, I was less interested in caring about a new set who may very well disappear in season 3. (which did happen . . . )
This season had far more of a sci-fi feel to it, which I would have loved (being a fan of ST:TNG, Star Wars, Earth 2 and so many others) had the first season not so fully hooked me into the believability of what could actually happen if man colonized the sea.
A fully telepathic doctor, a character with gills (not so believable, though I did like the character), a genetically engineered character, took the series in a complete other direction from the first season. It was so dramatic, I, like so many others, were turned off it during its first run.
The acting was still very good, but the direction of the stories to complete science fiction, did put me off a lot since I so very much enjoyed the first season.
And there were no extra features on season 2. At least season 1 had deleted scenes!
Now, I want it to round out my collection, same with season 3 if its ever released. Not my favorite, but still enjoyable to watch, nonetheless.
