The Triangle

Strange phenomena has been occurring in the Sargasso Sea or the Bermuda Triangle since early seafaring. Columbus in 1492 encounters a modern ship and loses 2 men in a strange event. In the present, ship magnate Eric Benerall (Sam Neill) finds those two men and his own men dead on one of his ships. He recruits certain experts to solve the mystery for $5 million each. Howard Thomas (Eric Stoltz) is a reporter investigating Triangle cases. Emily Patterson (Catherine Bell) is a skilled engineer. Stan Lathem (Bruce Davison) is a psychic. Bruce Geller (Michael E. Rodgers) is an extreme adventurer. Meeno Paloma (Lou Diamond Phillips) leads a Greenpeace expedition against whalers when giant bubbles take down the whaling ship and the Greenpeace boat. Meeno is the sole survivor but he returns to find the world oddly different.

This is a 3 part Sci-Fi mini-series. I really like part one as the mystery gets laid out. The production is pretty good for a TV show. It's set up for something interesting. The second part starts to show some cracks. I don't like some of the turns with the mystery. I don't care about Lou Diamond Phillips' part of the story. I also don't like the team being split up. Part three does a competent job wrapping the story up. This TV series starts out strong but loses some of its steam.
