Voyage To The Bottom Of the Sea David Hedison Interview

[@SSRN_SEAVIEW]

Thank you for everything David.. You're now with Richard Basehart and all the crew of the Seaview.. You are missed! RIP.... And thank you Red Carpet for posting.

[@selena7992]

Thank you for the kind words about Richard Basehart, David. My dad and Richard were cousins and dad remembered watching Richard perform on stage as a drama student at Zanesville, Ohio High School. Way before his Admiral Nelson days.

[@Mp25DIII]

85 years old--he looks incredible

[@terriwarner8682]

Wish all those actors knew how much they brought to our lives. Every one of them. I watch and rewatch. It is like having my best friends with me for a short and fun time.

[@roenamorgan8286]

"I remember my (Jamaican)dad,in London England 1968,driven to another Jamaican man's house:I was a little girl,seeing a color t.v.in a family living'room. . .For the second occasion,I saw 'Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea',which stood out,more than the green and white floral wallpaper'. 6--21--2023'

[@abc64pan]

Wish we could all age like David Hedison, he looks good for someone his age. It's nice to know he's still alive and well, he and Voyage were a part of my childhood and I became acquainted with that series before I saw Star Trek for the first time.

[@davidmoorea1961]

As a 60-yr old American, I give-up with Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, Lost in Space, Johnny Quest... ~ WBAT A GREAT Childhood I had!!! Thx to The Crew and shows...!!! WOW!

[@Turrican60]

David Hedison, or if you wish, Captain Crane, was my hero in the 1960's and still is. He's a wonderful actor and a true gentleman. Thanks for the special Seaview memories, David :-)

[@morlockmeat]

The Fly ! Had the pleasure of meeting him. Very kind and gracious. He signed one of his books to me. Great guy.

[@antoniode]

Unforgettable Captain Lee Crane !!

[@poobum9857]

Mr Baseheart had a great tone in his voice and an intensive style of acting - great to see Mr Hedison looking so well - thanks for post

[@digikode5558]

A total living legend, David Hedison. I wish Richard Basehart too, was alive and well!. Long life to you, David Hedison. . . thanks for filling my drab school days with Technicolour.

[@kainnosgoth7336]

Having met this wonderfully nice and well-spoken man several times at Chiller Theatre (East Coast) I can say that all the commentary posted about his here is 100% true. He always lets fans speak as long as they want, and he and I had a great talk for about 20 minutes one time. We spoke about our fave episodes and about his role as The Fly and some of his movies back when he was contarcted under Fox Studios. All in all, a great man who deserves his fame big time! Rock on, Mr. Hedison!

[@Setebos]

I met David Hedison at DragonCon seven or so years ago. I totally geeked out, but he was such a gentleman.

[@nancydionisi9346]

Thank you for everything David! you are a great actor with Richard Basehart, I love your performances and all cast of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, I continue watching it, it´s wonderful!

[@poobum9857]

Mr Baseheart had a great tone in his voice ans an intensive style of acting - great to see Mr Hedison looking so well - thanks for post

[@sammyvh11]

Great actor and Voyage was one great show and ahead of its time. Irwin Allen was a genius. RIP

[@1959Berre]

A great hero of my childhood. As a little boy I was fascinated by the Voyage to Bottom of the Sea. I remember the crew of the submarine Seaview being hit by all kinds of hazards and rocking all over the place. Fabulous! Those were the days, life was simple and free of worries. Thank you very much Mr Hedison!

[@gentleraine480]

The chemistry between the two actors literally jumped across the television screens each week, even before Technicolor! Loved sharing this show with my family!

[@josecasitaoliveiracasita4978]

Thank you for the good times of travel to the bottom of the sea. Cheers for you

[@alessabradley3757]

He truly has aged so very well too! Wonderful...

[@mariehulton5184]

What a dear man and a fabulous actor. He has a genuine smile. RIP. Loved all the actors in Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and it was great to grow up being able to watch it and very many other great shows. ❤ 😊😊😊😊

[@brianwalsh7991]

David Hedison is a great actor and one of my alltime favorites!

[@DakariKingMykan]

+Brian Walsh And what about Richard Baseheart?

[@antoniolima4771]

I remember watching Voyage and I wish Captain Crane could be my dad . He was so minded strong , a straight forward guy , used to think of solutions to every and each situation the crew had been through . That character became my idol ; I was like six seven , and I quickly became a Crane wannabe . Hedison has always been an Amazing actor , and in a way was a good example to be followed in my childhood years .

[@andysummersthxcinemaandmyc7748]

Wow aged nicely and naturally. Tuned into the show each week.

[@robharding1957]

nice guy who played the part that contributed to a great tv series

[@jmartra]

I always loved Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea!! I always watched it as a child and thanks to a local TV network ME TV I am watching it every Saturday night now!! Love the show!!!!

[@Basskat100]

Yes I to have been watching Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea as well on ME TV on Saturday nights. Brings back good memories of my child hood. You all remember the Time Tunnel ? And Land of the Giants.

[@jaypayton4209]

Happy 90th Birthday!!! Thanks for the wonderful entertainment during your long and distinguished career.

[@gaby13ghost55]

Thank you David I Will Always Love You

[@sciencemansandera]

Seaview was an awesome show. Hedison and Basehart were fantastic and brought everyone to know who they were or calling them the captain or the admiral. My dad and I and my four brothers set around the family watching TV together it was good times. Times I wish we could have today. Yeah maybe some of the scenarios got a little over-the-top but that was part of the beauty of it because everybody made the jokes about the Seaview rock 'n' roll, Blow ballast hard right rudder, they brought some marine talk into every household. They also inspired lost in space. The Flying sub wow what an excellent creation of imagination. Still referred to today as one of the ultimate badass things on television. I fly radio control I would my building a flying sub lol! I know they used a lot of small models and things but man I bet it just had to be a riot making that show. I've been watching it recently today and I got a Tell ya it's almost like I'm addicted to it all over again.

[@robertszvetics210]

david is a great guy saying those kind words about richard basehart who died too soon

[@louismartineau2669]

these Classic TV Shows are legendary. One of my favorite along with Lost in Space, The Time Tunnel and Land of the Giants.

[@stevecook3673]

Voyage ttbots one of the best series love it . So many memories of my child hood. I Couldn't agree more with David Hedison you identify with the characters. Richard Basehart is sorely missed. The political tension at the time is played out well in palpable tension and paranoia. Admiral Cpt Lee Crane, XO Chip Norton, Chief Sharkey, Kowalski ,Riley. All great actors and cast. Thanks for posting. I am so fond of the series and watch it every day . Be great to have it remade up to date but then again it wouldn't have the same magic. Richard Basehart was Admiral Nelson. Great portrayal.

[@johnclark4593]

I have an 8-year old and 10-year old who love Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea and Captain Lee Crane.

[@rollingstopp]

buy them the little sub lol

[@termocarcelen1752]

QUE MAGISTRAL VERLO Y ESCUCHARLO A ESTE GRAN ACTOR DE LA SERIE VIAJE AL FONDO DEL MAR ES UN GRAN PRIVILEGIO ES FANTASTICO SOY TELMO DESDE ECUADOR 🇪🇨

[@markdanna7155]

David thank you and to the rest of the cast members for bringing a great action packed Episode every week.

[@liketheuniverse11]

I'm watching the adorable series and the nice intro!

[@pastorrandyconaway3349]

He was such a serious actor.

[@Polysixchick]

David is AWESOME, he gave me a big cuddle at the Birmingham show and he was really sweet! I travelled all the was from Norwich to see him there :)

[@MartyCanter]

Remember as a kid my parents would always let us watch voyage to bottom of the sea & lost in space before going to bed was two great shows that out lasted many other 60s shows in the days.

[@MrPolymers]

I met David Hedison at a Sci Fi event a few years ago in Louisville, KY. He's a Brown University graduate and indeed very smart and highly educated. Theatre and acting was always a passion for him. I wish I still had my 1960's model of the Seaview. It would be worth a few bucks today..

[@lunes-4109]

Siempre estuve enamorada de este hombre. El más guapo que he visto jamás.

[@montsediazcuenca8352]

Toda la razón, q guapo

[@hankreager244]

So great to see David !! One of my favorite actors and I grew up watching Voyage, one of my favorite shows !! Really miss Richard Basehart !!

[@sciencemansandera]

And actually I'd like to say I think all of the main actors on the show did an awesome job. Patterson Kowalski chief Sharkey Chip Etc. Everyone definitely kept it interesting.

[@IMCcanTWEESTED]

I knew a guy named Chip Morton. He was assistant strength and conditioning coach for the San Diego Chargers in 1992-94

[@jeremybear573]

Love love love Hedison and Voyage of the Bottom of the Sea!

[@Aerojet01]

Thanks to the amazing acting from Richard Basehart and David Hedison, they made Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea appear realistic. After watching the shows recently, I was expecting them to look completely outdated, but they do look surprisingly ahead of their time considering the technology back then. Credit to the special effects, props and models, and clever visual effects. It's good to see David look healthy and mentally sharp. Great interview.

[@Aerojet01]

***** Thank you for the kind words :)

[@Aerojet01]

***** Thanks and have a good weekend as well. All the very best :)

[@Aerojet01]

***** Thanks. It's very refreshing to chat to someone on here without them getting aggressive and angry, especially if you don't agree with their opinions or you have an opinion which they don't particularly like. KZbin can be a very hostile place at times.

[@Aerojet01]

***** Thank you again for the generous words. You have well balanced mind. I think it has a lot to do with the fact they are behind a computer and there is no human interaction in a physical space. It is the same as the angry abusive person behind the wheel of a car surrounded by glass and metal. Most people are normally very civilised when they are confronted on a one to one scale. I've been on KZbin since it first started, but I have come across some decent people on my travels, including you. I always have time for nice genuine people, but I can't stand obnoxious, abusive, arrogant and egocentric personalities. I'm not perfect, but I try to treat people the way I want to be treated. All the best. Rex :)

[@Aerojet01]

***** You too mate :)

[@canalsaudeculinariaebeleza]

Infelizmente todos oa atores da série estão dormindo o sono da morte!! Descansem em paz!!

[@Vindix007]

Só o ator que fazia o papel do Riley, está vivo ainda.

[@andresinalbis6651]

I saw this serie in the ´70 (or at 70 ?). Actualy in this day, I´m downloading 3 rd season. I never forget this tv show. I live in Argentine. Good guy David.

[@RollingStones1962]

Muy bien amigo... yo también me estoy haciendo con todas las temporadas "Viaje al fondo del Mar" Saludos desde Chile!

[@andresinalbis6651]

Gracias hermano. Saludos

[@oslocamargo]

[@vertxxgg]

David became hero to thousands of spanish younsters looking astonished T.V in 60s they imitated his style and want to be looked like him :-)...Richard Basehart make movies in Spain and Italy with local actors he was a great actor too..magnifico¡

[@cristianvallejo9114]

gracias David ,por una serial tan entretenida, años hermosos de aventuras

[@mursemartin3063]

David is a cool guy!!! I got a pic with him, and he is the nicest person I ever met.

[@gloriaojeda]

I love voyage to the bottom of the sea. Me da gusto ver a David Hedison todavia muy entero. Gracias por estas series que vimos desde muy pequeña. Ojala pudiera contestarme aunque sea en Ingles. Saludos desde Guadalajara, Jal. Mexico.

[@EduardoVazquez-yd5yi]

Mr.Hedison is great !! the series of the sixties and seventies were the best. Thanks for share

[@DakariKingMykan]

If only Richard Baseheart were still alive... I wish I knew how he'd feel today

[@peterraymond8470]

Wow! He always was a good-looking guy when he was young and even in his eighties he was very handsome and well-spoken.

[@ginger00022]

I love this interview with David Hedison.

[@Dra741]

David Henderson with the second officers I recall he was a excellent officer after watching him I knew if I was on the submarine and I had to Admiral with me I knew how to conduct myself

[@Spindriftful]

Despite the fact that his hair and beard are snow white, he hasn't changed one bit, his face is devoid of any wrinkles and creases. What's his secret? I was a wee lad of six when Voyage hit the airwaves. I was hooked on this, and all of Irwin Allen's sci-fi shows of the 60's. If Irwin had lived to now, he'd be 97-years-old.

[@SenorZorrozzz]

Still handsome.

[@kennyscarborough250]

Great actor....

[@jackpayne5101]

I think it is lovely how he answers the questions like he had never been asked them before, such a gentleman and he was so handsome when he was younger although he still kept his looks into old age 😊

[@excelsciors]

Many of us old timers miss Richard Bashart. But but now that David has passed also. We all miss David Hedison as well. I was very sad when I heard David passed away.

[@gloriaannopperman2734]

Wonderful actor and a great show! Made my tv watching so much better! RIP David Hedison aka Captain Lee Crane! Tx fan

[@excelsciors]

May God bless and rest Al ( David ) Hedison and Richard Basehart. Al always spoke well of Richard, true class all around!

[@ronniehicks3258]

Those​ men if the Seaview were courageous and strong. Real role models.

[@barackmycat9448]

RIP 2019. A great actor.

[@julioaranton461]

"Thank you Captain", couldn't wait to get home from school & watch the cast/crew from Seaview; the ship & cast shared my interest always...Peace into you always.♡

[@anthonysillett6678]

Loved this show, great good clean fun for kids no swearing or naughty bits

[@lisanidog8178]

He was my favorite in the show.

[@leeinvegas]

Happy 90th . You look great

[@robertcubinelli4961]

What a great man and actor ! My fave VTTBOTS episodes are: Terror, No escape from death, the Devil Dolls, but I enjoyed the whole series and still do :)

[@josericardogonzalezcarrera3643]

Gracias David Hedison por su excelente actuación en "Viaje al fondo del mar".

[@andremax77]

It was one of my favorites.

[@beverlywahl-perkins6578]

I was his moms , Rose, hairdresser and also his aunts. nice people

[@shedjammer87]

A class act!! So cool that he and Richard Basehart got along so well.

[@luisbernal4313]

ip to the bottom of the sea, was, is, and will be one of my favorite programs. .. I always saw him as a child. And now I can see it on You Tube. They were excellent actors, I loved Davis Hedison, Captain Lee: hey, hey, hey I always wanted to meet in person. Unfortunately the years pass. But "to remember is to live".

[@mikerufo4950]

Voyage to the bottom of the sea was a classic 👌

[@edwardmorley5273]

I saw him at this event... Didn't know it had been filmed... He was always the consumate professional.

[@paulhudson8321]

David Hedison just passed away in July 2019. I’ve started watching the series again one of my all time favourite series. I think he was the last cast member to pass away. Richard Basehart was a great actor and a fantastic narrator. He narrated the Vietnam war series the 10,000 day war. These shows were great for young people who needed role models and childhood hero’s. You’ll never see shows like these again because Hollywood has gone politically correct with social justice and produce nothing but garbage.

[@gloriaojeda]

My love was always platonic Captain Lee Crane, for me it is and remains the perfect man, even at his age. I see her daily series and enjoy the performances of both David Hedison, Richarc Basehart as the Master laze in peace. Thanks for giving us this time and congratulations on this series of voyage to the bottom of the sea, that never go out of style.

[@robertcubinelli4961]

Jokes apart, Hedison and Basehart were great actors.....Hedison is unforgettable in the original The Fly with Vincent Price !

[@Trucker1957]

Loved watching him on Voyage, he was my favorite.

[@pattykuvshin]

Rest in heaven, Captain

[@robertmassie4575]

thanks for the greatest show of my youth absolutely amazing loved it awesome cast and of course Irwin allen

[@KarlaLuna-tv4tm]

Woow excellent interview!! Nice actor . ❤❤

[@Dra741]

After watching the show I could command a submarine that's how it made me feel I could actually take controller the bridge ready torpedoes dive to 30 m stand by the fire I command a submarine that's how good the show was

[@randyacuna3248]

Wonderful show, a lot of fun.Richard and David were great in the lead roles and the whole cast was great. The only Allen show I still watch.

[@georgeschofield6099]

Love show as kid David and Richard got on like brothers and crews like family was brilliant was best thing on TV that and invader the shows kept me going didt have much of child Life . I was very here Richard baseheart die of stroke and David hedison to dies . Both were great actors they will be miss dear . Thanks for shows down loaded it . Special with cover 19 here. On 4 th season at min

[@carlacrawford9349]

It's sad we lost David in 2019. He was the last of the original crew to pass away. Appropriate since the Captain of his ship is the last to leave when it was over. Too bad they didn't reboot the series or at least give it an ending.😢😢😢 3:17

[@riffdigger2133]

Healthy and dynamic. And fit. A lesson for us all. Great upload, thanks. I just ordered season 1 of Voyage, and recently saw the Phantom episode on KZbin and enjoyed it very much.

[@user-hz8wf6ou3g]

David he aged gracefully he still had a full head of hair and he kept himself together. I enjoy those Saturday reruns of Voyage,Land of the giants, and Kojak on ME tv. R.I.P David I enjoyed your acting.

[@johncarroll9986]

Two great actors sadly no longer with us RIP David Hedason and Richard Basehart

[@Golden_Age_Flash_]

I agree the First season was the best - Cold War suspense And having been filmed in Black and white provided the first season a sense of Film Noir

[@ginamoraes4052]

Grande Ator! Que descanse em paz. :(

[@TheStratman007]

I enjoyed his work in "The Lost World."

[@bepponabuco7389]

David Hedison was also the best CIA Felix Leiter in the 007 series!

[@johnmacn]

I didn't care for Richard Basehart on the Voyage of the Bottom of the Sea and remember an edge between Richard's character and David's character. It was when I grew older and I saw him in WWII movies and others where I liked him that I began appreciating his acting. By my teens I appreciated both actors and grew to enjoy the To The Bottom of the Sea more. It was a pleasure to find out about their friendship and respect for each other during the show. I think the people are far more interesting than the parts they play.

[@kenw.1112]

Richard Baseheart. Had strength, motivation, basically A LEADER ON ALL LEVELS. DAVID AND BASEHEART WERE A GREAT TEAM TOGETHER!

[@slittlejohnjr]

Wow. Haven't seen this guy since I was a kid. This tv series was one of my all time favorites. I remember the movie version prior to the tv series.

[@LionheartNh]

What a fantastic series. The flying sub was inspired. Still nothing like it in real life or sci.fi to my knowledge.
