My high school son got me to watching it a few weeks ago, and just watched it again tonight. Very interesting show, to say the least!

Never miss it, the "best of" or whatever they called it was really good too.

If I was 20 years younger I'd love to give it a try.

I was always taught to respect my elders.
I don't have to respect too many people anymore.

That show and Dirty Jobs are my faves. Those deckhands must be in hypothermia. I'm suprised they all don;t die.

On last years show, a 60' wave slammed into one ship and nearly sank it. Several ships have disappeared too with few if any survivors.

Yes, but their bad day could be them being dead or making no money or both.

That is a great show. The Mrs. and I watch it anytime it's on. Those guys bring crazy to a whole new level. The show does a great job of getting the viewer emotionally "involved". Well, as much as you can be while seated comfortably on your couch with a nice cold beverage in your hand.

Discovery has a great line up for me. Deadliest Catch, Dirty Jobs, Future Weapons, MythBusters, Man vs. Wild, Survivorman. While I rarely see the episodes when they first run, I always manage to catch them on re-run.

Hey Kook, what are the chances of your kinfolk moving up there? The episode the other night featured USCG S&R and it was a great reminder of those who risk their lives for much less pay than the fisherman.

Great show!

Grab a glass of scotch, settle down in my leather chair, fire up the PVR and watch Deadliest Catch and Dirty Jobs.

Love the episode where they stashed the garbage in the cage and welded it shut.

I love it, bluegill fishing on my pond pales in comparison.

I don't know those paddle boats can be wicked.


I really do enjoy watching them prank the traps, I wonder how much of that is for the camra's. Even so its pretty funny!

Jeez, you know it didn't even dawn on me until you posted that. It's interesting what old threads bubble up to the top.
