5.0 out of 5 stars seaQuest DSV - Season Two . . . FINALLY!!, October 19, 2007

By	The Writer (of the Great U.S.A.!) - See all my reviews

It's about time! seaQuest fans have been anxiously awaiting this release for over TWO YEARS! Why Universal took so long to get this season out is a mystery to me. I've been ready to buy it since before season 1 came out.

As you may recall, the first season of seaQuest ended with the destruction of the supersubmarine, to save the world from what can arguably be called catastrophic global warming. As the season begins, Captain Bridger is taking command of the new seaQuest. The bridge has been redesigned, as have several other parts of the boat, but the biggest difference in season 2 is the new crewmembers. Sadly, we lose the comical Krieg, the uptight Hitchcock, the country boy Crocker, and the cerebral but attractive Dr. Westphalen. However, their loss is not so badly felt with the arrival of new crewmen - Lt. Brody, combat veteran. Dagwood, a failed prototype for a naturally camouflaged supersoldier. Henderson the attractive and young new techie with no experience. Dr. Wendy Smith, a telepathic (this was hinted at in season 1's "Treasure of the Mind") medical doctor and scientist (though not quite in Westphalen's league). And rounding out the Rogue's Gallery is Tony Piccolo, a wise-cracking ex-con on work-release aboard seaQuest, with the gills of a fish in his torso ("I'm a surfer. I thought they might come in handy.").

The second season has a somewhat different feel to it than the first, which was fairly science-only. This season, the show takes on a bit more of a sci-fi feel to it, but this is not a bad thing.

After the 2-hour season premiere of the Dagger (others like Dagwood) Revolt, the aliens seen in season 1's "Such Great Patience" arrive to a mixed reception. Later episodes in the season depict the possible discovery of the location of long-lost Atlantis, a renegade robot submarine programmed with Capt. Bridger's personality, and Star Wars fans are treated to two guest appearances by Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill! Kent McCord also returns 3 times this season, reprising his role as Space Commander Scott Keller.

The ending of this season, I don't want to give away in case newer fans haven't seen it, but I will say that Universal BETTER release season 3!

seaQuest was a great sci-fi series, far ahead of its time in the early 1990's. I have no doubt that these days, it would be going popular. I plan to spend many hours enjoying this season! :)

3.0 out of 5 stars Great TV show, horrible packaging and content., January 6, 2008

By	C. Thomas - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Seaquest is a great show, and I'm not debating that. Other reviewers have pointed out the good points of the show and I heartily agree with them. My three star rating has less to do with the show and more to do with the actual production of the DVD. First of all, it took FOREVER to be released. That fact, while annoying, was not a factor in the lower star rating. Some good things take a while.

My complaint is that there are absolutely no extras in this set. The first season definitely had deleted scenes and it might have had some other stuff as well, but I don't remember exactly. I enjoyed those deleted scenes in the first season and was looking forward to seeing them in the second season, but there are none. This set has only the episodes and nothing else. Every movie or TV show that I have bought in the past has had at least SOMETHING extra on it. The price of this set needs something more than just the episodes.

My second complaint is the cheap packaging. The set I bought (not from Amazon) had prongs broken off in all the cases. In one case, all the prongs were broken off on both sides so the DVDs weren't held in place. I plan to take it back and exchange it, but I'm not optimistic about getting one with all of them in place. The ones that are still on are very small and just look like they want to pop off. One positive thing about the packaging is that each case opens up with one DVD on the left and one DVD on the right. Some sets of other shows/movies which I have purchased try to save space and put two DVDs on each side, on top of each other. This is irritating because you have to remove the 2nd disk to get to the first one. This set is not like this, thankfully.

My final complaint is this: Advertising on the packaging is one thing, but they put the www.great-tv-shows.com on the title menu of the DVD! That is totally unnecessary and ruins the menu, in my opinion.

So, great TV show, horrible packaging and content. For a set that took two years to be released and costs this much, I would have expected more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Everything comes to...........etc., October 11, 2007

By	David Orme "Fantasy Forever." (Sydney Australia.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Well.......it's about time, good on ya, Universal,I wanted the rest before I faded out, at least now I'm a series closer, I can only hope the last half series will follow. All jokes aside,this is a really great series, saddened by the passing of Johnothan Brandis, and bolstered by superlative acting performances from Roy Scheider, Michael Ironside,Don Franklyn, and a great array of series guest stars (let's face it, if you can get Charlton Heston, anything is possible) the special effects are, again, high above the mark, and the John Debney theme is the best fantasy TV theme since Goldsmith"s "Star Trek". Long Live Seaquest.
