1/8/2023 0 Comments Deadliest catch cameraman payRest assured, that I will be eating this beast once or twice more over the course of the season. And that, my friends, is exactly what I did. That mission: to find and consume the elusive Alaskan King Crab. ![]() Thanks to Morgan at I was a man on a mission this week. Spinnaker Seafood Broiler – At Ventura Harbor in (you guessed it) Ventura Dont’ worry, I’ll keep it short and sweet. If reading all that didn’t put you to sleep, I’ve also got a little food review for ya. That said, I’m still gonna hold my breath and hope for the best on next weeks show. It’s cruel to insinuate anything other than that. First it looks like Keith is gonna bleed out in the water, now they’re trying to make you think that somehow the other 10 crew members of the sunken boat might have survived the night. The one thing I would like to say about the season thus far is this: did the producers just find out what a cliffhanger is? I almost think they are taking a cue from Hell’s Kitchen with the way the cliffhangers turn out to be something completely different than you were expecting. It’s tragic that these things happen, but it just makes you more aware of how dangerous a job fishing really is. They did end up finding a survival suit, only to see the occupant not survive. In this case, the coastguard had to fly 9 hours through the night, only to arrive on site to see a bunch of rope and a life ring. Of course, the downside to that is the fact that sometimes people don’t make it out alive. One of the cool things about the show is that they have a cameraman ride along with the Coast Guard on rescues. They described it like this, “If this thing were in the Atlantic, it’d be called a hurricane.” ![]() This wasn’t just any typhoon though, it reached from Russia all the way across to Alaska. It was a fishing boat about a thousand miles west of the crab grounds that sent out a mayday in the middle of a typhoon. The last 20 minutes of this episode was devoted to a ship that isn’t a part of the crab fleet. Seriously, I give it 3 episodes max before we see mutiny on the Marie. Phil perform a horribly staged pep-talk call from back at the harbor, which Murray half listened to, before continuing on his futile attempt to find the crab. Mike Rowe said it best, “No crab and no plan.” They even had Capt. The one guy I feel sorry for in this whole mess is the substitute skipper of the Cornelia Marie. Still, I never trust a man who spells his own name wrong, and I’m pretty sure that “Johnathan” is not your traditional interpretation. I gotta say, a couple of seasons ago I thought the Time Bandit crew was just retarded, but after a while they do grow on you. Good times for the Time Bandit and their merry bunch of white-trash pirates, bad times for everyone else. The next 30 minutes of the show were devoted to fishing. I guess that’s reason number 453 not to let your captain free-dive in the Bering sea. ![]() Also, if he did end up dying, who is gonna sail the ship back to Dutch Harbor. Learn it, use it, love it.Īnyway, he has a concussion and a good gash in his head now, but it looks like he’ll make it. Honestly, isn’t this something you pay someone else to do? It’s called delegating. Keith of the Wizard having his 18 million ton boat come crashing down on his head whilst trying to fix the damn thing. So last night’s episode was a bit of a filler, but Mikey gave me such a hard time for breezing through the review last week that I feel like I owe you something half-way decent.
