The first show on our list comes from a military perspective, specifically the US Navy, of course. Last Resortaired for just one season of 13 episodes and followed the crew of an Ohio-class (the largest subs built for the Navy) ballistic missile submarine. The story starts when the vessel’s top commanding officers receive questionable orders to lau...
Given the nature of these vessels, TV shows about submarines are often military-related. And this next series, which is also the newest show on this list, is also that, effortlessly blending together murder mystery and police procedural genres to produce one of the most “most gripping TV shows of the year.” Vigil, BBC One’s new submarine drama, fol...
Next up is the Spanish-Portuguese series Silent Cargo (Operación Marea Negra in the original Spanish), which is inspired by the real story of one of the most infamous drug trafficking operations in history – the narco-submarine that was found at the bottom of the Galician estuariesin 2018. Set in late 2019, Operation Black Tidefollows three men as ...
We’re taking things way back now with Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, which aired over 100 episodes back in the 1960s. Still, in keeping with the military perspective, it follows the adventures of those on the fictional nuclear submarine, the S.S.R.N. Seaview. Based on the 1961 movie of the same name, Voyage to the Bottom of the Seacondenses the f...
Still, in our throwback era, seaQuest DSVaired in the early 1990s but was set in the then-future of 2018, where almost all of mankind’s natural resources have been depleted – except for those deep within the ocean floor. Because of that, many colonies were established down there, and it’s the job of the seaQuest DSV 4600 to protect them. In this co...
The final oldie but a goodie we will mention on this list is Operation Petticoat. Based on the 1959 film of the same name, Operation Petticoatfollows the crew of the World War II submarine, the USS Sea Tiger. After they rescue five army nurses and bring them aboard, the submarine is set for repainting. However, a surprise attack ruins the plan, cau...
This show moves away from the viewpoint of the Navy, but it’s disaster dramas like this that make me slightly terrified of going underwater. The BBC One five-episode miniseries The Deeptakes place on a research submarine called the Orpheus, headed towards the deepest depths of the Lomonosov Ridge in the Arctic Ocean to find a rare biofuel. The crew...
You might have heard of the 1981 film of the same name – the critically acclaimed film that was nominated for six Academy Awards. Well, this Sky One German TV adaptation is the sequel to the events in the movie – produced more than three decades later, but still just as good. Like the movie, Das Bootis based on the 1973 novel of the same name by Gü...
The next show stays within the territory of German U-boats and certain events during the Second World War. BBC Two co-produced this two-part television film, The Sinking of the Laconia, with German networks ARD Degeto and SWR Fernsehen. History buffs may already be able to glean what the miniseries is about based on the title, but for those who hav...
ITV brings another two-part TV film with Ghost Boat; while the miniseries does borrow from the reality of World War Two in certain elements, it certainly applies a fresh take by adding a dose of the supernatural as well. The submarine in question is the HMS Scorpion, a British vessel that disappeared during WWII and left only one survivor: Jack Har...
