About The Deep

THE SHOW

THE DEEP series follows the Nekton family – a brilliant team of underwater explorers. Their adventures tap into the explorer in all of us as they investigate the mysterious depths of the ocean – that final unexplored frontier on our own planet. A place where leviathans swim through sunken cities, where pirates lurk amidst floating black markets and where a mysterious group of Guardians hide long lost secrets.

CHARACTERS

Follow Ant Nekton, 12-year old explorer, inventor and adventurer, along with his dad Will, a former Olympic swimmer, mom Kaiko (pilot, mechanic and awesome marine biologist) and 15-year old sister Fontaine, also an amazing swimmer and navigator, as they explore the world’s oceans, discover lost worlds and rescue endangered creatures.

THE SEASONS

The sea is deep and full of secrets. In Season 1, The Nektons, an amazing family of underwater explorers, want to learn them all. But in order to do so, they must face astonishing creatures, dangerous pirates and mysterious Guardians!

The Nekton family are back in Season 2 and the search for the lost city of Lemuria becomes urgent, as its legendary power is the only thing that can stop the colossal, dangerous creatures known as Monumentials from waking up – and a young new rival named Alpheus Benthos wants that power for himself!

The Monumentials — huge creatures capable of changing the world — are waking from their long slumber! In Season 3, to put the giants back to sleep, Ant, Fontaine, Will and Kaiko must find the ancient city of Lemuria and harness its secret. Dangerous pirates, fantastic creatures and tantalizing mysteries will confront them along the way. But even with unexpected help from Jeffrey the Fish, they’re running out of time.

In Season 4, after searching for generations, the Nekton family have finally found the fabled city of Lemuria, unlocking secrets and tantalizing mysteries. But the greatest discovery they’ve made is also the most shocking: proof that Ant and Fontaine’s grandparents made it to Lemuria! The Nektons had given up on ever seeing their loved ones again – but now they have hope. Now their most important search begins. While encountering more legends and myths, pirates and leviathans, the Nektons will explore The Deep… in search of their family.

ORIGINS

The series is based on the Aurealis Award-winning graphic novel series created by multi-award-winning best-selling comic book author and playwright Tom Taylor, illustrated by James Brouwer and published by Gestalt Comics. THE DEEP showcases an environment that focuses on teamwork, problem-solving, a sense of adventure, constant curiosity, discovery and exploration. THE DEEP is a bit of a throwback to family adventure stories like LOST IN SPACE and THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA.

ACCOLADES

Since its debut, THE DEEP has proven to be a top-rated show that resonates with kids around the world. Nominated for the 2018 BAFTA award for International Animation, The Deep has garnered international industry awards, including the 2017 Kidscreen Award for Best New Series (Kids Category) and most recently, the Golden Sparrow Award at the German Children’s Media Festival and the Best Script at the 50th Annual AWGIE Awards in Australia for Children’s Television (5-14 years old).
