Samantha S 10/28/2024 Do yourself a favor and watch this! See more Katie Q 10/08/2024 Every episode left me with a feeling of complete awe at the creatures of the ocean. I learned so much by what the team on Ocean Explorer was researching and was totally sucked into the storytelling of their missions. Not to mention the video footage is truly amazingly beautiful. See more Sarah K 10/03/2024 Such a great show! Learned so much and so fun to see never before filmed moments. See more Dana K 10/03/2024 The footage is incredible, the entire season was fascinating! See more Thomas Q 10/03/2024 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! See more Rebecca S 10/02/2024 The way they capture the beauty and rawness of ocean life is something special. Watching the deep sea episodes felt like being transported to another world. Seeing bioluminescence light up the ocean was pure magic. Some moments were hard to watch, but I love how real and unfiltered it is. You can really feel the team’s passion for exploring and sharing the ocean's hidden wonders. It left me in awe. See more Read all reviews
