Just finished watching season 4 and thought it worth mentioning that it was much better than all prior seasons!
I believe the earlier seasons suffered from being too long. The land-based plotlines were mostly filler; I found myself skimming them for the "at sea" parts. This wasn't so with season 4!
Having only 6 episodes instead of 8 (or 10) was a wise decision. The result is a great 6-hour serial!
Tighter writing and superb acting kept me coming back for more. Rosalie Thomass was simply sensational as Hannie Lessing!
It's a rare thing when a mediocre show survives long-enough to produce a great season, yet somehow Das Boot did! 8/10. Highly recommended.
