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.

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 !

I never really watched this series and paid any attention to it until about a month ago when Discovery debated their "Planet Earth" series, and this was on afterwords.

This is the kind of show that sucks you in so far you don't even realize you've been tensely waiting to see what happens next, and the great part is, you least expect it. A highly addicting show as you see the struggles, hours and long shift these brave men throw forward in order to meet their quota of crab. (They're braver than I am, I hate the cold.)You also get to know the crew and the different personalities. As serious and dangerous as a job as this is it's nice to see the lightened mood, and the subtle pranks played on each other, and the pots of other boats. This beats the heck out of tired reality shows with rich has been celebrities wining about everything and anything (never watched them anyhow). If you want to see real people, and exciting situations, I highly suggest this show! 10/10.

Discovery channel makes more of a fan out of me each year, first "Mythbusters", "Dirty Jobs" and the occasional mini series event (ie: "Planet Earth") The Medical Mystery programs are also fascinating.

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.

"Deadliest Catch" is the latest offering from the Discovery Channel, and a welcome diversion from their seemingly non-stop "Monster" car or bike building shows. "Catch" follows the crews of several crab boats as they and the rest of the fleet rush to catch as many crab as possible in the ever-shortening Alaskan crab season. The show gives you an in-depth view of the trouble the crew faces doing everyday tasks, like baiting and dropping crab pots, and how these tasks are made harder by the unforgiving Bering Sea. We see everyone from the "greenhorns" (rookies) to the "old salts" and the danger they face every day. As evidence of this, as Discovery was filming one boat sank and another lost a crewman overboard, totaling six deaths in the first episode of the Opilio season. Next time you sit down at Red Lobster and wonder why Alaskan Crab Legs are so much, tune in to Discovery and see why they are worth every penny.
