That looks like it's only a repackaging of Discovery's Planet Earth. Every scene is directly from the series.

I noticed that also.I love that series so I'll go see it in the movies.Probably most of the good scenes all packed into one.I watch it on discovery any time they run it.Hopefully my 6yr old can be bothered long enough to watch it and learn to love nature and wildlife as much as his old man.

Am I the only one who gets bored watching them catch the same crabs over and over? I'll watch one or two this season, but it will be fishing season soon...

i was pissed last year, my directv kept crapping the bed the last 3 weeks of the show. Would always die about 7-8 o'clock the night of the show. It made me get cable, and since i now remember its been almost a year i guess my bill is going to go through the roof.

Yes, you are. There are different crabs in each pot.

But I also never got bored watching Gilligan's Island or the Roadrunner, so maybe I'm just not that easily bored.

Having worked and run boats offshore, I have no problem saying I'm a junkie for this show. I look forward to seeing how other captains and crews handle adverse conditions. My experiences out there (not the Bering, the Atlantic) now cause me to not tolerate being wet and cold very well... (at least I'm too old to be a Navy SEAL, because that's all they know) I know Red and Clammer enjoy it too.

Capt Phil dropped out first show ? May be planned because they had a new guy on the deck.Either way I'm a die hard fan of the show.

Question

Did I misread something in the first few minutes of the show or does the Wizard go down or almost go down in a future episode?

Why even try.........

I missed that part, the capt had to dive underneath the boat though in open water and almost got himself killed, maybe that is what you are referring to?

I may be wrong on this...but I wonder if they were shooting deadliest catch when that boat went down in that area about a year ago. The boat that went down was fishing for pollack I think. Men were lost. Some were saved by helicopter coast guard. Maybe they were in the area shooting and went to help? Tragic stuff.

I think they are trying to bait us that the Wizard is going down to keep people watching. My guess is that the Wizard did have some issues, but the boat that went down was the one mentioned above. With the popularity of the show if the Wizard went down it would have been on the news and every internet fishing forum months ago.

the Alaskan Ranger went down with 45 people. 7 perished. the rest were saved by other boats and the coast guard. it was a dragger/processor. bad scene. the captain was a hero. made sure all his guys got off before he did. i believe that happened in December, not far from where these guys fish.

Alaskan Ranger was lost in March '08. King crab season for 2008 began in October.

Was probably the Katmai.

i never get bored. reminds me of when i did the boats scalloping off shore. 50 yrs. ago how the equiptment changes, but the captains sure haven't. still some i'd go overboard for, others i wish they would get an idea.

put them back alive. i do have grandkids.
