Deadliest Catch

I would watch this show every week when I was 13 until I graduated HS. Sometimes it got stupid with drama. Like cmon, you people are twice, maybe 3 times my age. I loved the Time Bandit, and wanted to throw hands the younger son on the CM. Sig was tolerable. Keith was funny. I can't remember what was happening on the show when I first tuned in. I think it was during or after the original Cornelia Marie skipper, Phil Harris, passed away. I couldn't imagine losing a parent like that. I also loved the Wizard v Time Bandit friendly rivalry, and the family connections on the Wizard, the Time Bandit, and the NW.

We used to really like this show and have watched it for many years. But season 15 sucks. They've ruined it. Crappy music playing in spots over the action. And those awful "Oprah for Fisherman" sections where all they do is sit around and blah, blah, blah.

The show has gone from one of our favorites to one that we may just stop recording. We have not made it through the end of the last few episodes and don't even really look forward to it anymore the way we used to.

I don't know if it's a new director or producer. But once we delete the recording, which will be very soon, there will be no going back.

If josh Harris pulls another, this is for my dad or im the only harris, this is what my dad wanted again, im done .. its getting old as hell. I love the series and have followed it from the start, but he is more annoying then a mother in law on steroids, no joke.

keep up the good work, just dont give him camera time, please !!

be safe !

Is this a documentary? Is this reality TV? I don't know, but I do know to call it addictive. What these men go through to put seafood on our plate is amazing. This is especially true during Opie season -- fishing on the Bering Sea, always one of the most dangerous waterways in the world, but doing it in January. Crabbing in 40-50 foot waves, temperatures near or below zero, winds 30 MPH+, ice on the deck, swinging 800 pound pots, to say nothing of the nasty claw-wielding crabs. These guys deserve our gratitude for risking it all to put the seafood we love on our table. Our entire family has Tuesdays as must-see-TV. We couldn't wait to buy the season 1 DVDs and now we are looking forward to season 2 being available soon. This is one of the best shows on one of the best networks on TV. Thank you Discovery Channel.

This series is an honor to all those hard working men and women everywhere around the world, in or out of the sea, that have to push themselves to the limit to make it every single day.

Crab-fishing works as a fine "wagon" to carry all the agony, effort, mental and physical exhaustion some (the most) of the people around the world face to make their living.

The two-three weeks of fishing period at a time sums in a decent way the farmers' (for example) whole season before and during the harvest. And that is why its an interesting and enjoyable as tragic too, show to watch. Its compact, always about something new (besides the fact that is about crab fishing!), keeping a good pace, and keeps the viewer on the edge since everything changes as the parameters of the fishing do.

I am sure, those captains, are making many hard working men/women proud, since they are letting the rest of the world see what it takes for some people to bring bread (and crab!) on the table.

Very inspiring indeed! Thank you Captains....and in case you are reading this, "Good Luck" !!!!
