    • Trivia
      The germ for the TV series originally began as a comic strip called "Finley", which revolved around a bunch of talking fish. When series creator J. Anthony Ferlaine was unable to syndicate the strip, he revised the concept and made it a TV show.

    GREAT
    I watched this show growing up in Chicago. I have always wondered what happened to the actress who played Minerva, the curvaceous blonde mermaid. All the boys in my school has a big crush on her. I wonder what the kids of today would think of Diver Dan?
