Billy Zane reviewedSeptember 17, 2025
The classic family adventure series about the world’s smartest dolphin. Flipper saves the day more times than you can count, helping kids, catching bad guys, and basically doing everything except driving a boat. It is wholesome, lighthearted, and full of that 60s TV charm. Sure it is cheesy by today’s standards, but it is still a fun watch and a piece of TV history. Hard not to smile when that theme song kicks in.
