Season Premiere of Deadliest Catch – Off to a good start!
What did you think of the first show? Was it my imagination or was there also a second episode right after? I only caught part of it since I didn’t know about it. Here’s a clip after the jump from the first show, in case you missed it.

Capt. Phil and the guys…
Love the show, thank you for allowing us into your lives and your amazing adventures!
Phil we love that you are keeping it real with your boys, what a awesome relationship you have with them.
We have two boys of our own, and I dont know if my husband could keep half the cool that you do with some of the stunts they have pulled… hope Jake PAYS for that wonderful TV he bought as a early fathers day present for you… LOL
God’s speed to you and the crew. Onward through the fog, and keep your eyes on the crab!

Hey Phil and crew,
Just wanted to let you all know how much we love and appreciate what you all do. My husband and I are huge fans of the show! Phil… I would’ve knocked Jake into next week for buying that TV, but good for you for keeping cool. I also loved the truck prank by the Time Bandit guys… I hope you found a great way to prank them back. We really admire how hard you guys work and the fact that you are willing to let us share in what you do. (My husband thinks I owe quite a lot to you guys since I can eat more king crab than his entire family put together… so let me just say a big THANK YOU for continually going out year after year to bring my fave food to my plate! Yum.) Obviously the season is over, but I hope it went well and everyone was prosperious. We’ll be watching each week as always to see the outcome. Maybe one of these days we’ll get to run into you here in Alaska or in the Seattle area where I have family and visit often.
Take care of yourself Phil (best of luck with the quitting smoking) and I hope Jake paid you back! To you and the crew, be well, stay safe, and we’ll be enjoying this season on the edge of our seats until you guys head back our way for another season.
Amber and Eric E.

Hey Phil & crew,
Just wanted to drop a note and tell you we loved the latest episode. My boyfriend and I watch all the time and I keep telling him he should go try the job sometime. He says he’s a hard worker but ya’ll put him to shame, he admits he probably couldnt keep up.
Hope you’ve been able to quit smoking…..I did it on the Chantix pill and it works like a charm….hardest part is when you drink….so I cut back on that for a bit and now I’m good. I hope you had a good and safe season…..Keep up the good work and the great entertainment!!!
Stay Safe!!!

Hello Cap’t Phil!
I had been counting down the days until the “Bad Boys of the Bering Sea” would be back on TV. I do want to know something…who did you talk to on the bridge before Discovery came along and put film crews on your boats. You talk to the camera while running the boat, who did you talk to before? Have you gotten used to the film crew?
Love your wise crack comments and your laugh…cut down the the Red Bulls, though…56 in 4 days is a bit excessive!
Enjoy the show!

The Lynn from NJ here. Sent Phil a message on his other site for a great retaliation for the TB. Hope he gets it. Hope you cut down on the Red Bull, that crap can do damage(an EMT) so I know how it can effect your insides, not good. Stick to good old joe,large cups.
Great to have you all back safely. That kid of yours with the new tv should pay you back ( he’s makig enough money now) if I did that crap to my parents they would’ve kicked my ass. That’s unfortunately not socially acceptable anymore,next purchase take it out of his share. He’ll learn quick enough then!
Take care, enjoy the little time you have off &for Gods sake try to relax!!!

i was going to say, “if the purchase of said TV came from wal-mart, you can do the following within 30 days: take the TV with all contents and the box, take the recept, and you can return it for store credit (a gift card). if the walmart is a supercenter, you can use said money for food for the crew.” however, i wanna see what happens when jake starts to slack off due to being in his bed too long because of the TV. :)

Hi Capt. Phil and the crew of the Cornelia Marie,
Big fan of course, I enjoyed the first and I guess, second, episode. Glad to have you guys back for another season. I cannot believe Jake went out and spent more of your money without permission. He makes enough, he can pay for it himself. Heck, he makes in one season in what I make in a year and a half. Take care and if you guys ever need a cook, I’m there. I’m too out of shape to work the deck.

Oh Jake…what WERE you thinking? $800 of the old man’s $$? I hope you buy him something nice for the same amount.
In any event, I love the show and I love watchin’ you guys haul in the crab. Thanks for bringin’ ‘em to my table. :)

Hey, you guys are wonderful. I watched both shows and was thrilled to see all of you working again. I am land locked in Kansas and watching Capt. Phil and the crew make me wish I was the cook on the ship! Be safe and take care.

Hello Capt. Phil and crew.
Love the show. And thank you for all of your hard work. It shows you all love what you do.
I grew up in Maine love the ocean but, I must say I have never seen waves like you all have to work in . Oh MY GOD ! I see those coming at you all and my behind puckers.
Tried to order a Duck Fart shot the other day at a local watering hole here in Oklahoma … They did not know what it was so I had to tell them. The drink was not bad.
Anyway I know your very busy but wanted to wish you all well as you go out to sea this crab season.

Capt. Phil & Crew,
I’m a 911 dispatcher in No. Calif and thought my job was stressful??? Mine is a cake walk compared to rogue waves, freezing rain etc….I have all the admiration in the world for you, I’d spend all my time ‘chumming’ over the side, and that’s before the ship left Dutch Harbor. Still not sure when I watch DC if I want to eat crab or throw up. :o) Please stay safe, keep on those boys and thank you for giving us all a chance to experience a life most of us couldn’t even imagine! My God bless and keep you all.

Phil–Lay off the Red Bull! Your doctor must cringe when they watch you! I bet they about feel out of their chair when they hear how many Reb Bulls you drank! I honestly don’t know how you do it being the father of two of your deckhands. I remember feeling like a crazed loonatic when my husband assisted our two children in looking out the windows of the St. Louis Arch! I punched him in the kidney! I hope that your Red Bull habit isn’t because you don’t want to take your eyes off those two boys…. Feel better!

Capt. Phil, I am amazed at your restraint regarding Jake and the t.v. If I had ever done something like that, I would still be at the hospital getting my Dad’s size 13 EEE removed from my rear. I trust jake and Josh realize what a wonderful Dad they have, and that Jake made it right with you regarding the t.v. !
The pickup truck stunt was truly ingenious, but I have total faith that you came up with something just as ingeneous, and I can’t wait to see what it was !
Anyway, thanks for coming back for another season with Deadliest Catch……The Cornelia Marie, along with you and your crew are by far my favorite on the show, but I enjoy all the boats and there crews. I hope this past season was first and foremost a safe one for all the crews and there boats, and also a very profitable one as well for all the boats and there crews. I am Looking forward to the rest of season 4 thats for sure !
Be safe out there on the Bering sea you guys, and enjoy your off time to the utmost !

What a great new season!
Well, Capt. Phil..I have a confession to make. Last season I wrote to Cornelia and called you out on your comment “No women on board”. I couldn’t figure out, since she is half owner how she couldn’t have ever been on board!? Well..she wrote back and said she hadn’t heard you say that on national TV and she woukd be checkin it out. I wrote to her again this season to check out your response..if you had one..and she said she had forgotten and would be bringing it up. So if there is a bone to pick it’s with me..I am sorry..but we women have to stick together..even if we do think your just the cat’s PJ’s you hunk of yum!
Gods blessing to you and your crew

Any one else notice that the Discovery Channel censored the back of Phil’s t-shirt in the first episode. I attended an event over the summer and all of they guys had the same t-shirt on. FCC doesn’t allow “Eat Me” on T.V.? You can say it, but not wear it?

Kids..bratts… got two boys of my own. If that would have been one of mine he’d be laying on the floor choking on his last dinner of teeth! Loving them is the only thing that keeps us from killing them. You did good.
I told my oldest boy that I will never complain about 4 foot waves again when we are out on my boat again since watching you guys!
Hope you are feeling better.

Phil,
I think you might be onto something, instead of fishing for red king crabs, use that ole pick-up truck and catch some red-neck crabs!

I bet the “kinda 800 bucks” thing was probably closer to 1100. But no worries, I have eaten enough crab to have paid for it. My treat, Jake, but you should move the TV to the common area and share it with the crew.
Then pops should restrict you to your room for a season.
CM is a beautiful ship, the crew is seriously hot, and our whole family loves the show. Fair seas to you all, and thanks for bringing home the the catch for us!

I havent seen the new episode yet but i cant imagine that it was that horrendous that some one punched a dead fish. the fish on the “crab” boat are what you like to call “bait” and the bait is strung from the inside of a pot where crabs pick it apart (hopefully) after the pot has smashed into the bottom of the ocean floor. can any one explain why watching some one punch a fish is worse than knowing what is going to happen to that dead bait when it is strung into the pots?
why is this even an issue?
I wouldnt in my wildst dreams think of not wanting to watch this show and i bet that Kathy wont be missed by any of the Millions of other DEDICATED viewers.

Show is great but I think they need to fire the asshole who punched the LIVE fish just because he was pissed at someone else. C’mon … punching a fish? GROW UP! I realize that people eat fish and that they are used as bait but abuse is different – it is bigger than a fish, it’s about what kind of person takes out their frustration on another living being. Wife abuser? Child abuser? Animal abuser? All in the same category to me.

Hey there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any solutions to stop hackers?
