What BBN said about it

  1. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorFans of Netflix's maritime horror series Below, set in a small Newfoundland coastal town with Josh Hartnett in the lead, are getting watch-next lists, and TVLine points them to The Rig, with Iain Glen.

  2. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentThere's also a game called Dredge where you are the fisherman. So you can skip the town and just be the problem.

  3. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorI have been to a real fishing town, Kenji. Nobody there wanted to be watched.
