The TV series remake of Das Boot is here in Australia. I have seen 2 episodes. Here are my thoughts...
It's good! OK, it's NOT "our" Das Boot, but it has great production values and acting, and I'm really enjoying it! A lot! It's about uboots, and Germany, and WWII, but it is a lot different to the movie and the books. I see it like Star Trek Discovery: really cool in so many ways, just not "real" Star Trek, but that's OK.
The boat. Sigh.

OK, I agree that it looks really scaled down, kinda tiny. I know, the drain/flood stuff, but it still looks pretty real if inaccurate, especially to people not on a uboot forum

. The hull with weld seems, good bow, inside is nice. They even did an homage to the film with a dive, guy on the toilet trying to get his pants up and get to his post, identical shot almost to the film.
Anyway, its the only submarine (let alone uboot) show I've seen in a long time. I'm invested in Kaleun, I even sorta don't mind his First Watch Officer though he is angry and could be trouble, Simone Strasser from Alsace but German, she's mixed up in some stuff, and her brother is forced back out on patrol away from shore duties...it's all happening!
Just my 2 cents. (With inflation that must be $200, or to look at what two cents is really worth, hundreths of a cent!)
