OceanXplorer

I am petrified of going into the ocean so this show gives me a view of things I'll never see personally. I love how it can feel like you are right there with everyone. I am intrigued by people who are willing to explore the depths of the ocean and enjoy the cast and the enthusiasm they share.

It's an important story to tell, especially in light of climate change. We need to gather as much intel as possible going forward so we at least know what damage is happening and then can make a plan to prevent and fix it.

I am particularly enamored with octopuses and love when they are featured. Deep sea octopuses were shown in the Seychelles, I believe. Please find more of them to observe! Thank you for a wonderful program and keep up the great work.

If you're an animal lover, you will have a very hard time watching some of this.... They focus a lot (too much for me, I had to forward past most of it) on animals killing animals .... It's understood that "everything needs to eat", however, showing the process and torturous death that one animal has to endure to feed another just goes against one of the main reasons behind this type of show : for people to fall in love with the animals and want to conserve them.... Seeing a Killer Whale hunt and kill, particularly a baby whale, in high def detail does the exact opposite for most folks. There is so much beauty in the natural world, there is no reason to be so obsessively focused on showing the cruelty- particularly if you're not going to warn your audience that some of the material you find so fascinating in your scientific detachment is actually quite upsetting.

Also had to fast forward through much of the tech stuff.... Easily half the first episode, for instance, focused on the technology.... Most viewers want to see the amazing underwater "stuff" not listen to you go on and on about the tech. I get it, it's amazing and groundbreaking, but, to focus on it for half the episode frankly gets boring.

Definitely wouldn't want young kids to see this; they'd likely be in tears. Those who can't stomach seeing the cruelty of the natural world, be warned.

Honestly came away from the first episode thinking that scientists and some nature filmmakers just have no heart with the way they talk about and get excited over a living thing getting killed in such horrible drawn out ways.

Worth watching on a platform that allows the viewer to fast forward. Would give 10 stars for the cinematography, 5 stars overall due to how the episodes are put together, and there really should be a disturbing content warning with some of what's presented.

The mission of the scientists in each episode was different enough to keep me totally hooked each time. I learned SO much and was blown away by the amazing visuals that were caught for this series. I'm in total awe of our world, the depths of our oceans, and the magnificent creatures (big and small) that roam them and in many cases have managed to survive through so much over so many years. Very cool that James Cameron narrates it and the ship Ocean Explorer is truly outstanding in its capacities. Hammerhead Highway was my favorite episode, but I loved them all. I want my kids to watch these now!

This series uses amazing images to tell stories about the creatures and aquatic communities under the sea. The use of graphics, holograms, clear and colorful photography, and some amazing videos gets me lost in the story. And these episodes are indeed stories. They don't just educate and expose me to environments and creatures I've never seen, they help me understand how they live and how our behavior can impact them. I also enjoy that at the end of each episode they recap what was learned in that episode.

The equipment used in these episodes is truly remarkable and creates opportunities that make even the experts sit back in awe!
