Critics Reviews

Jonathan Taylor Variety This derivative but technologically advanced series has a sufficiently interesting premise and enough high-tech toys to perhaps survive the hostile waters of Sunday night programming. Apr 9, 2020 Full Review Howard Rosenberg Los Angeles Times "seaQuest" often seems so in love with its own flashy repertoire of high-tech gizmos that it fails to sufficiently emphasize the human element so essential for good storytelling. Apr 9, 2020 Full Review John J. O'Connor New York Times Ham performances seem to be encouraged, perhaps as a means of keeping viewers puzzled in lieu of being enthralled. Apr 9, 2020 Full Review Stephanie Morgan Common Sense Media The costumes and melodramatic acting, replete with eye-twitching staring contests, come across as laughable by contemporary standards. Rated: 2/5 Oct 18, 2023 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy The unique setting is the show’s greatest asset, as the storylines are fairly conventional. Rated: 2.5/4 Jul 23, 2022 Full Review David Hiltbrand People Magazine The special effects are the only thing keeping this scow from being C-worthy. Rated: B- Apr 9, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
