Hmmm. Must confess I had never heard of The Buccaneers. :hmm:If it had Robert Shaw it must have been good.

Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea
1964-68

Voyage was the decade's longest-running American science fiction television series with continuing characters. The 110 episodes produced included 32 shot in black and white (1964–65), and 78 filmed in color (1965–68). The first two seasons took place in the then future of the 1970s. The second two seasons took place in the 1980s. The show starred Richard Basehart and David Hedison and crew aboard the research sub Seaview.

In the beginning the series mostly featured undersea cold war and espionage plots. The first two seasons were probably the most solid. Sadly, over the course of the decade it degenerated into monster of the week episodes. It continued to avoid the bottom in terms of ratings, but was eventually pulled in favor of producer Irwin Allen's next sci-fi series; Land of the Giants.
