Surface

I never watched the show but, yes, Lake Bell is hot so if nothing else the show has that going for it.

Lake Bell is hot and even rubs herself down with petroleum jelly in one episode.

There's also a hottie bikini-clad "teenager" later in the series, and even another one when the kid (poor-man's Elijah Wood) starts working in some lab/aquarium.

Interesting, neat, show. I wish it had gotten renewed for at least another half-season. I don't think its premise could've held up much longer than that. It kind of came out at a time when everyone seemed to be trying to do the "big arc-heavy quasi-scifi shows" like Lost. I enjoyed it and we had some fun here in the old discussion threads, mostly over the kid's ET-ian connection/"love" with the pet "lizard"/iguana"/obvious CGI creature.

Oh, and the funniest part is when:

Spoiler: Spoilers for mid-season

Lake Bell and a buddy make a deep-sea submersible from scratch, it suffers problems, and they surface in a manner that certainly would've given them The Bends.

What marine biologist wouldn't know what a liopleurodon was?

It's an ancient sea creature. Lake Bell's character didn't know what one was and she's a marine biologist. Even I know what one is.

Ah. Gotcha. (Explaining references you make to series that many haven't watched in several years is probably a good idea. )

Nah... don't be coming in my thread unless you have eidetic memory...

I wish they gave the series 26 episodes and that's it. It ended with 17 and with a few more they could have made a really fun series.
