Next week will be the final episode for this season.
All I can say about this show is.......WOW!
I sure hope they continue with this series. Finaly something truly worth watching.
With Andy pushing the limits on the edge of the ice pack and Sig pulling a rabbit out his hat once again it`s been a real interesting watch.

Agree, one of my fav shows.

Had several of them back to back here on a sat recently.

Didn't get much on the honeydo list, but was a nice relaxing sat

TV is hardly worth watching these days but this show has captured my attention. Excellent!

Crab fishing in the Bering Sea. Its kinda like a reality show, but with none of that faked and rehearsed reality.

Yea, it`s sorta kinda like a cross between a documentary and reality, but without the BS. Good show.

Ok... I don't like boats on the ocean and I don't like fishing and I hate ice and snow. The show sounds like life in hell for me.

oh... and I truly hate "reality" shows.

I hate large fishing boats, I don't like crabbing, I'd rather NOT be in ice and snow, and I hate reality shows too. But this one caught my attention for 4 hours one night (they had Season 1 back to back episodes on) Like Jackal said, its more of a documentary than reality show.

I didn`t really understand the thinking behind the rule the Dept. Of Commerce threw on the Rollo. Seemed a little over the top.

I'd say it's a documentary, advertised like a reality show.

Definately not a job I'd do. I saw the episode where a rogue wave hit a boat and left them on their side, with no power. No thanks. I don't even like cold pools. I am interested to see how many captains played it too close and are gonna lose some gear to the ice.

And I still don't know what was up with the Rollo. Were they over their quota?

Watch it on and off.
My son likes it

Why do they call it "The Deadliest catch" though?

I keep waiting for someone to die.
Nobody ever dies!:mad:

they should call it "the most potentially deadly catch" LOL

Either way. They can keep that job.
I hate being out on the water in a boat when its cold.

Let alone also being out there with waves that are higher then me too!

Watching the show a thought occured to me though.

When they were breaking the ice off.

Surprised nobody developed a heating system to run along the ship.
Would warm the ice just enough that a couple taps would cause it to simply fall off.

Actually one of the boats from last season, The Big Valley, sank with all crew lost.

"EPISODE 10: THE FINAL RUN

Premiere: June 14, 2005

With the deaths of the Big Valley crew, this Opilio crab season has been a rough one. On every boat, crew members are reaching their limit, but are spurred on by the pressure to catch a year's wages in the next 24 hours. "

What I find strange is that with all the American boats in the crabbing fleet when I buy crab at the local supermarket it's tagged as a "product of Russia".
