As far as the theatrical movie went...I could eat Barbara Eden with a spoon.

I remember watching the TV series as a boy. Heck, I even got a toy Seaview sub for Christmas that shot real torpedoes! Awesome. I don't remember much about the show...I remember one episode where a small diving bell was swallowed by a whale. I knew that it was stupid...but I still watched it.

These TV shows and the movie (along with Lost in Space) were produced by Irwin Allen...notoriously known for production qualities that would make you cringe. Later, he became known as the self-proclaimed king of the disaster movies in the 70s. They pretty much blew chunks too....

But Ms. Eden was hot, so he can be forgiven for a lot of the camp the thought was high art...
