I agree, Terolyn. The Northwestern is still keeping it "real-er". And I love Edgar, too. But Jonathan has been my fave until this year. My post reads like I tuned in just to see Phil have a heart attack or some other debilitating illness (kind of like a looky-loo at accidents) and that's not the case. I just get so aggravated at the news teasers that I was upset that TV Guide is using that same gimmick.

Sabbatia, I'd seen that a couple of weeks ago, and thought that was what the TV Guide was referencing. Thanks for reminding me about it, 'cause I think I'm gonna re-read it. I watched some of the marathon yesterday, and saw most of this last episode. Again, I did not see "mass amounts of stinging jellyfish in unfilled pots". I saw a couple on the lines, and one fell out of a pot, but no mass amounts. This show has enough action without trying to make up more drama. One thing I've noticed about this season is that Jonathan's & Andy's brother, Neal, is getting more face time than in prior ones. I got the feeling that before he really didn't want camera time. No hockey game tonight, so hopefully I'll remember to watch it and see all of it, not just bits and pieces.

Sab, I read that at the beginning of the season. I do not doubt that he had a serious health issue and the threat of his losing his life out there was huge, It just appeared to me that after all the "intense build-up" there was nothing really happening. If I had not read the articles about what had really happened I would have assumed he just had a bad cold.

So is anybody going to get the new Deadliest Catch video game that comes out next month? I may give it a try. The videos of it look pretty neat.

Terolyn, the link was updated the first part of May. From the spoilers, it appears it is going to be shown during opelio season.

The editing of Phil seems to show very little of him. This may be because of his health problem yet still keep us interested in watching the series. They show snippets of his ship and crew.

My views of the captains and crews have changed alot this year. Since the beginning my fav was Jonathan, then captain Phil. However this year Jonathan is falling from "grace" with me. Too contrived. However I am Loving Edgar. He cracks me up and he just seems on camera just as he would be without them there. He took quite a blow to the head last night.

Has anyone thought that so far this season it's the Hillstrand Family Show? There have been a lot of back stories on the Hillstrands with way too many past photos and video of them growing up. In the first or second episode they had a nearly 10 minute clip of their past home movies. It had nothing to do with catching crab. Must be trying to sell that book they wrote.

Huk... You can have Edgar I am just enjoying his camera time and his "edgarisms". Gurlie - I agree

I love the Hillstrands! I didn't like them the first season, but they've grown on me. I think that Johnathan isn't so much playing to the camera, but maybe finally feeling comfortable with it around. (my opinion only)

I think that's exactly the case. Sig is still my fave but Johnathan is moving right up there. I like him much better this season than any other.

You can add my name to the I Love the Hillstrands' Fan Club. Jonathan cracks me up - especially when he pulls in big pots. Does anyone know what happened to the Farwest Leader this season? I can't remember the captain's name, but his wife did the cooking on the boat.

I like the Hillstrands, but I'm tired of the show just being about them. And hey everyone...where's the Keith love? He's had to deal with a new greenhorn that doesn't know what hard work is.

ITA with Oxies_Luv about Jonathon. Love the Time Bandit! I would not want to work for Sig. I find him arrogant, demanding, hardly ever happy. Atleast Jonathon can occassionally have a good time. About the North American, I find it 'convenient' that after 3 years of not fishing the son suddenly wants to go out, you know, now that he'll be on tv. And "convenient' that cameras were there to catch him asking his dad to allow him to take the boat out.

Roxi...ITA with your thoughts on the North American. I didn't like that guy or his boat. His crew didn't jell and he went out there without needed equipment. No tables? Seriously? That was one thrown together fishing trip.

The best thing about the North American is they have that cutie Eric Nyhammer on the crew! He's my favorite captain, and I enjoyed watching his laid back style with his goofy crew on the Rollo (season 2, I think).
