I like their content though.

It’ll end up just being on another platform at some point after it ceases to exist. They even sold the Yellowstone streaming rights to Peacock which seemed like an insane move.

A lot of their content is already on Max. Deadliest Catch is.

Thanks for keeping us working. I just got done shooting another season, and fear it may be the last show adventure show shooting for a while.

You shoot for Deadliest Catch?

Worst decision of my life every time! But I like to work hard when I work, then not have to for a while... and all of us out there earn our time off, that's for sure.

What boat you on? I saw a photo of the wizard on your profile.

Usually the Wiz, but I've been on a bunch of them. Saga, Southern Wind, Aleutian Lady, and others. Most of us who return get moved around, sometimes a captain works really well with a particular person so we stay there. I like the Wiz because it's a big boat and I'm a puker. :D I threw up for days my first time out on the Saga, never even made it to my bunk, I stayed on the bench in the wet room so I could throw up and still get out to film.

I'm a mountain guy. All I want to do is work and play in the mountains. This show gets me the opportunity to go do that. Keep on watching, keep us going!

So freaking cool man, literally been my favorite show since the first season. You guys are all badasses for getting out there!

A documentary about the film crew sounds like it could be more interesting than the actual show.

Deadliest Catch is one of the few consistent non-fiction (ish, I'm sure they spit polish it in editing) adventure shows that I can sit down and watch. not pull out my phone, not have it run in the background whilst doing something else. I'm here to watch it.
