Missed Deadliest Catch

I missed Locked Out – the last episode I saw had Phil out in the water with ice closing in.  I have to catch a repeat to find out what happened.  I hate it when I miss the next episode.
The labeling of the different seasons and shows are confusing on Discovery.  They could list the [...]

Tempers are flaring – Deadliest Catch – spoilers

Freddie Maughtai – the one with the sunglasses – all photos belong to their owners – no infringement intended.
It hit me last night that I am used to seeing light pots of crabs, but the skippers always manage to find some and everyone is happy.  Although the scores are posted, I felt good that they [...]

Monty – get a life – Deadliest Catch

Okay, I’ve seen some buggers in my life, but Monty on the Wizard, was just plain mean this week.  The new crew member had posted a picture of his girlfriend over the bait table where he works.  Monty repeated put fish guts on the girl’s face and ruined the picture.  The new crew member would [...]

Deadliest Catch lives up to its name – Katmai goes down – three survive!

All photos belong to their respective owners – no copyright infringement intended
I haven’t written about Tuesday’s Deadliest Catch – it was a sobering hour – riding with the rescue helicopter to the site where the Katmai went down in high seas.  The first person found was in a survivor suit, but they found out he [...]

Deadliest Catch – New Season Opener

In researching the TV listings for the start of the new Deadliest Catch season, I noticed a show before the premiere on the camera people who film the show.  Those outrageous shots of waves breaking over the side of the boat, of ice crusting on the bow and many other recordings [...]

Deadliest Catch – new season starts next week

All photos are the property of their owners.  No infringement intended.
I watched the two-hour special that captured highlights from Season 4.  It was a trip seeing all those waves again – 45+ foot-waves in stormy seas – ice covering the ships – men on deck sliding around – and the poor greenhorns I always feel [...]

Deadliest Catch – holding my breath

Tonight seeing Captain Phil in the hospital was very sad.  Okay, I know he smokes, gets stressed out, drinks caffeine instead of meals – but the guy loves crab fishing.  I still am not sure what is going on with him.  The bond that his son, Josh, feels for him is so real and touching.  I [...]

Deadliest Catch

I’m a cowboy – on a steel horse I ride – I’m wanted – Dead or Alive – John Bonjovi sings the Deadliest Catch theme song and I can see the boats pitching into the waves.
It was a wild trip tonight, with Jonathan falling into the space between his docked boat and the pier – [...]

Deadliest Catch – a new fan

Now, I never liked crabs.  My family used to go crabbing on the weekends and bring them all home in a bushel basket (little crabs compared to the ones in Bering Sea).  Those crabs would try to escape – I used to like to look at them walking sideways.  However, my mother would put them [...]
