Are there any series or movies about life in a submarine?
Only one I can think of is Series of Unfortunate Events: Grim Grotto
Preferably a series and workplace situational

U-571, SeaQuest: DSV, K-19: The Widowmaker, Red October, Das Boot...but the best was Down Periscope with Kelsey Grammar.
-
Also Crimson Tide and The Abyss
-
Down periscope was apparently eerily accurate according to a friend.

-
Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou

Thanks!

The only one I can think of is Down Periscope.
It's a comedy.
-
Literally the most realistic portrayal of life aboard an American boat.

Down Periscope

Sometimes you need someone who has a tattoo on their penis.

I think the Beatles made one

Purple submersible I believe it was called

Right! My brain kept saying "Burgundy Bathysphere" but I knew that wasn't right...

Keep in mind you made no requirement about the quality of the show.
"Set in "the near future" (the year 2018 in the first season), seaQuest DSV originally mixed high drama with realistic scientific fiction.[4] The first two seasons star Roy Scheider as Captain Nathan Bridger, designer and commander of the eponymous naval submarine seaQuest DSV 4600, the ship prefix standing for "deep-submergence vehicle". "

Not strictly about life on a submarine, but Vigil by the BBC was a great fictional mini series based on the British nuclear submarines
-
Came here to say that. That show was so damn good!
-
-
Seaquest
-
For the most realistic depiction, watch Operation Petticoat.
-
Below is a horror movie set on a submarine. There's quite a lot of ordinary daily activity before things turn sour.

Australian Cartoon "The Deep"

Sphere by Michael Crichton

You could then also say that The Abyss is also a submarine movie. While technically you could say that, I don't think that's what they were asking for.

Das Boot is required viewing.
The Enemy Below is a really great movie too.
and The Hunt for Red October and K-19 are great films if your interested in modern nuclear submarines.
Just reading the name Das Boot makes me feel claustrophobic and I haven’t seen the movie in a long while
You misspelled "the miniseries".
The movie is the shortened version. You only really feel the claustrophobia if you watch the entire 5 hours in one go.
