Season 1, episode 13: Better Than Martians
Written by David Kemper & Dan Brecher
Directed by John T. Kretchmer
Space, the other frontier. The life of Bridger's friend and rival is just out of reach. Selfish men stand in the way of success. The seaQuest's capabilities are stretched to their limit. And all for a snail. It's another Certified Kemper Banger.

Season 1, episode 12: Photon Bullet
Written by Michael Cassutt
Directed by Steve Dubin
Lucas doesn't fit in on seaQuest, so he jumps at the opportunity to be among people like him. Jumps so fast, it takes him a while to recognize where he's landed. But the most important thing is Wolfman and the Red Menace.

Season 1, episode 11: SeaWest
Written by John J. Sakmar & Kerry Lenhart
Directed by Gabrielle Beaumont
After a few weeks of seaQuest showing how variable this vein of television can be, we land on the worst kind of episode for our purposes: the one that just falls flat. There's nothing egregiously wrong, just nothing terribly right either. A limp week. But we'll always have the hats.

Season 1, episode 10: The Regulator
Written by David J Burke
Directed by Les Sheldon
Two plots mashed together, and even more tones, make The Regulator a real experience to watch. But it's carried by a committed performance. Yeah, let's say "committed".

Season 1, episode 9: Bad Water
Written by David Kemper
Directed by Bryan Spicer
So far, we've spent the run of this podcast talking about the ways seaQuest DSV was almost great, sifting the things that resonate from the things that hold it back. This week we talk about an episode that shows what we've been on about this whole time. This week, it's just good. It's really, really good.

Season 1, episode 8: Knight of Shadows
Written by Melinda M Snodgrass
Directed by Helaine Head
Spooky greetings, ghouls and ghosts! The seaQuest has found a haunted ship for a Halloween episode. And her crew of scientists proves to be very open-minded about the whole thing.

Season 1, episode 7: Give Me Liberté
Written by John J. Sakmar & Kerry Lenhart
Directed by Bill L. Norton
This week's trench holds danger, mystery, and a moving guest performance. Even so, sometimes an episode has everything going for it, but it still can't pull away from mediocrity.

Season 1, episode 6: Brothers and Sisters
Written by Art Monterastelli
Directed by Bill L. Norton
The power and resources of the seaQuest meet a challenge they're wholly unsuited to: a stubborn and confused teenager. Meanwhile, Lucas learns he has no game but sometimes you don't need any.

Season 1, episode 5: Treasures of the Tonga Trench
Written by Kerry Lenhart and John J. Sakmar
Directed by Les Sheldon
It's a low-stakes seaQuest adventure as the cast clown hatches a scheme. This moves everyone else to become temporary clowns, none moreso than special guest Yaphet Kotto and his talented cheeks.

Season 1, episode 4: Games
Written by David Venable
Directed by Joe Napolitano
This week sees a big shift in focus and tone as the seaQuest is host to a serial killer on the prowl, and he brought all his favorite tropes. It's dumb fun, with a heaping helping of dumb.

Season 1, episode 3: Treasures of the Mind
Written by David Kemper
Directed by Bryan Spicer
The seaQuest's support of an archaeological dig leads to a diplomatic nightmare. Psychics look for failures of military security and their own labor rights. Lucas has... yearnings. It's an episode that plays the card, the David Kemper way. Also we debut our Movie Star Minute segment with Jaws.

Season 1, episode 2 "The Devil's Window"
Written by David J. Burke & Hans Tobeason
Directed by Les Landau
The seaQuest under Bridger and the UEO undertakes her first proper mission, at least the first one put on air. What are the most important factors about episode order? If language is a barrier, can grief cross through it? How fussy can a science grandpa be? Featuring the breakout character of 2024: Baby Morpheus
