Will you still love me if I admit to watching this show in my youth?

Only if you wear the seamonster suit, then I’ll love you forever.

Be Careful, Sigmund!

Thanks a bunch….

What about the important genre categorization of the show?

Since it has sea monsters – so is cryptozoology SF, fantasy or blurs that line? Of course the genie in show says fantasy, unless the genie represents sufficiently advanced tech to appear to be magic?

But really isn’t Sigmund just a puppet sea monster of Casper, the Friendly Ghost – with the genie substituting for Wendy the Witch?

Since the lead has tentacles and is names Sigmund – is he Freudian?
;-)

Embrace the love.
