Since the “SeaQuest” is from circa 2000, surely it is a reference to the TV show SeaQuest DSV, which aired on NBC from 1993-1996.

There are some fun episodes but the show is not very good and has not aged well.

Man, that sent me down a nostalgia rabbit hole. I really liked the first season of that show, then it sucked, then it got canceled. And now I find out Jonathan Brandis killed himself 17 years ago and I didn't even realize, and apparently he dated Tatyana Ali all the way back then? And now I guess I need to go watch the Fresh Prince reunion and pretend I'm a kid again, but that's just gonna make me sad because Uncle Phil is dead now, and wait a second? Uncle Phil was both War Machine in the old Iron Man cartoon and he was Shredder! How the heck did I never know that?

There was also a seaquest game for the 2600. I don't know how well it's aged.

sealab 2021 is where its at
