"I love this show and to be honest I'm really not sure why. I'm not a big fisher, crabber, or boater, but I absolutely love this show and the guys on this show. I also like that Mike Rowe narrates the show. Deadliest Catch has knocked my other favorite shows out of the way. I press the "pause" button on my life when the show comes on, nothing keeps me from watching......... I'm hooked !"
Riveting. Engaging. Exciting. Dangerous.

"DEADLIEST CATCH is one of the most riveting series on TV.
The work alone is incrediblly dangerous and difficult on heaving decks in freezing seas with wind and weather assailing every footstep. The evidence of this lies in the 90 lost souls over the past twenty years of those who ventured to challenge Alaska's Bering Sea.
But the real drama of the series lies in the characters themselves; the Wizard's captain Keith, Jonathan of Time Bandit, the damaged Phil aboard Cornelia Marie (and his sons), Sig and his family on the Northwestern and so many other brave and hearty souls. They become like part of the family as we cheer their victories, grieve their losses and laugh with them in the joy of their work and play. You come to love Jacob, the great-hearted kid on the Cornelia Marie and to see through Jonathan's quirkiness to his heart for his men and his ship. Sig's toughness metls as he reveals the depth of his pain in losing friends and comrades to the Bering Sea.
This series is a brilliant, vivid, dramatic testimony to the "men who go down to the sea in ships." May God bless and keep them."
