When the film made its network television premiere on ABC on October 27, 1974, it earned a Nielsen rating of 39.0 and an audience share of 62%, making it the sixth highest rated film to ever air on network television. It has been released on VHS, Laserdisc, DVD and Blu-ray. "The Poseidon Adventure" has become a cult film, particularly among gay audiences. It is in the vein of other all-star disaster films of the 1970s such as "Airport" and later ones like "Earthquake" (1974) and "The Towering Inferno" (1974). It is listed in Golden Raspberry Award founder John Wilson's book, "The Official Razzie Movie Guide", as one of The 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made. "Mad"'s September 1973 edition satirized the movie as "The Poopsidedown Adventure". It became the best selling issue in the magazine's history. The film won a Special Achievement Academy Award for Visual Effects and an Academy Award for Best Original Song (for "The Song from "The Poseidon Adventure"", also known as "The Morning After"). Shelley Winters won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress – Motion Picture and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her role. It also received nominations for the Golden Globe Award for Best Motion Picture – Drama and for Best Original Score by John Williams. A 1979 sequel, "Beyond the Poseidon Adventure", which was also based on a novel by Gallico, was released later with an equally star-studded cast, but was a commercial and critical failure. In 1998, several episodes of the daytime soap "Sunset Beach" entitled "Shockwave" revolved around an earthquake and tsunami in California and major parts of the episodes take place on a cruise ship, the S.S. "Neptune" (Neptune being the Roman counterpart of the Greek god Poseidon) that is capsized by the giant wave. The episode borrowed heavily from the plot line of "The Poseidon Adventure" and garnered huge audiences and spurring NBC to repeat it several weeks later in prime time. "The Poseidon Adventure" has been remade twice, first as a television special in 2005 with the same name and as a theatrical release titled "Poseidon" in 2006.
