Die Nektons - Abenteurer der Tiefe

One of only a few that i enjoy watching with my kids. Smart, engaging ang well made. I hope they make more seasons.

Came across this by accident. I am in my 60's and my grandchild is 2 - we BOTH love the series. Members of our family who are between those ages do as well. The messaging, the script, the ideas, the graphics, the originality are stellar! My only complaint is that there's only 2 seasons.

I loved this. There's not much underwater sci-fi out there and this is great - informative, exciting, and with some cool tech' (the sub' the Aronnax is almost Tethyan in its coolness). The characters are well rounded, not at all your typical competent martyr mum, hapless dad, and clever kids. Mum Keiko is an expert pilot, dad Will is a myth-hunting marine expert, their (younger) son Ant is a genius with a remarkable pet fish, and their (older) daughter Fontaine is sassy and sceptical. The kids in particular are both likable in their different ways and also annoying (when they bicker). The plots are always more than you think they will be, with just enough hard science in the mix to ensure that there are no easy ways out, and here and there just a sprinkling of the supernatural. The bad guys also deserve a mention, the pirate crew of the Dark Orca (another brilliant conception) with Hammerhead, Mad Madeleine (his daughter), Smiling Finn (his somewhat reluctant son) and Danny Boy. Excellent. Roll on series 2!

Great story, good characters and not all total silliness that gets boring very quickly.

The story arch is compelling and it feels like a real adventure, educational and inspiring.

My daughter lives it. (and I like it too).

Everyone in our family was intrigued with the story-line and excellent quality of these episodes. This is some of the best shows our family has watched in quite some time from my youngest to my 17 year old and even us grand parents, we were glued to our seats as we watch these amazing shows! Thank you for The Deep, I whole heartedly hope you are able to continue with this series! At the very least if there is more written, bring out a book series! I know if we are informed they will be in our family library as well as our towns library!
