Fun TV relic, beautifully presented
Nov 11 2012
By Gary M. Gerani
- Published on Amazon.com
SEA HUNT was the most successful of producer Ivan Tors "techno-ventures" produced for TV in the late '50s/early '60s. These were engaging, half-hour semi-documentaries about survival in challenging environments, whether under the sea (as with this series, which introduced always-enjoyable Lloyd Bridges to TV audiences), in the air (THE MAN AND THE CHALLENGE) or even in outer space (MEN INTO SPACE). Apart from the pleasures of the show itself, I'm delighted to report that the transfer quality of these episodes is nothing short of spectacular; they appear to be mastered directly from the 35mm negatives, and the odds are most viewers have never seen SEA HUNT looking quite this good. Although TGG has announced season-by-season releases of the TV series in their "Marathon" program, this attractive box set provides an excellent value and might get the job done right now -- it contains over 60 episodes with the pilot and a good deal of Season One included. Highly recommended!

Worth the wait!

I pre-ordered this set when it was first announced and waited for it to be in stock and ready to ship. It was well worth the wait. The sound and picture quality are as good as any other DVD's that I've purchased. The box is oversized to accomodate four standard DVD cases, with two discs per DVD case. It's great to be able to watch Sea Hunt again!

Sea Hunt Marathon is excellent release

There is no other offering of Sea Hunt that matches the quality of this set - 24 Hour Marathon. Where it particularly shines is in the underwater photography where in other sets I have owned it come across murky because of poor reproduction. Lloyd Bridges was a fine dramatic actor and most of his career he played dramatic roles until the later part of his career. Good value, great quality, but clunky packaging. The set does breaks down into four standard slipcases for easier storage.
This early series intelligently incorporated science and technology into its plots. Good to see quality releases like this from the Golden Age of Television.
