GWCGWC 83 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Lock this thread right now so Smaccimac can start the official DC thread. Seeing as how she's their biggest fan and all, it's only right for her to bring with the thread starting. Link to post Share on other sites
Franchise632 0 Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 I watched a bunch of the marathon of earlier seasons over this weekend in between hockey games and the Masters. I have been pumped for this new season since I caught a sneek peek at the movie theater a couple weeks ago. Luckily it will be over tonight before the Wild vs Avs game starts tonight. (GO WILD!!! BTW) Link to post Share on other sites

Well then I expect a new "official (haha)" thread with your comments to kick off the season tonight. I'm DVR'ing it since it won't be over by the time the AVS/Wild game starts in my area. GO AVS!

Smacciemac 3 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I have no doubt that Captain Phil is going to die while behind the wheel of that boat one day. Link to post Share on other sites
HollywoodAFD 0 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I have no doubt that Captain Phil is going to die while behind the wheel of that boat one day.Yea...he looked bad last night. Really bad.I met one of the camera guys from Discovery Channel recently and he said that guy drinks about 20 Red Bulls and 4 pots of coffee a DAY. Not to mention he smokes 3 packs a day.

mr_druid 0 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 you'd think the crew members would be in worse health than the captains, not the other way around. As a tv cameraman, I'd love to shoot that show. I heard there is a behind the scenes episode with the tv crew, but ive never been able to find it in my local listings. Tom.

Not to mention he smokes 3 packs a day.Or you could just watch one episode and see all of that...you'd think the crew members would be in worse health than the captains, not the other way around. As a tv cameraman, I'd love to shoot that show. I heard there is a behind the scenes episode with the tv crew, but ive never been able to find it in my local listings. Tom.No, I don't think so. To the crew, it's just a job. But to the captain it is his life. The captain has to worry about the saftey of his boat and his crew, he has to worry about where the crab are, what happens if they can't find crab, what his investors are thinking about him, and a bunch of other stuff. The crew just work and they can't really think too much. Eventually, out on the sea, they just become machines and they need to stay in good shape to be able to continue to work.

Ron_Mexico 4,238 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 it's the anticipation of seeing that pot come over the rail, full or empty. Link to post Share on other sites
pitchgod 0 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 There is a full episode devoted to the cameramen that aired 2 years ago. You can sometimes see it when they do the marathons. They showed all the cameras that don't survive, and a bunch of camera guys puking. The best clip was of a cameraman falling into an open hatch on the deck. He ended up with some bruised ribs, but the worst part was the boat had a fine for any crew who did that. They had to buy eveyone on the boat a case of beer. The crew held the camereman to it and it cost him like 200 bucks back in port. Really interesting show on the behind the scenes stuff. Link to post Share on other sites

I also would love to be on one of those boats for like an hour, but I know I would be scared out of my mind.it's the anticipation of seeing that pot come over the rail, full or empty.My favorite part of the show is when they pull up a full pot and empty it on the sorting table. It's so relaxing to watch that. Link to post Share on other sites

showstopper24 0 Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 So does Phil have cancer? Obv sucks.I'm a couple of episodes behind, but I'm assuming if he had cancer then it would be made public because he is somewhat of a 'celebrity.' Link to post Share on other sites
