Editorial Reviews

Join Captain Rick Mezich and the crew of The Fierce Allegiance as they work the frigid waters between Russia and Alaska during the brutal '99 snow crab season, a season that took the lives of seven good men. Crab fishing in the middle of winter off the coast of Alaska is extremely dangerous. On average, one man will die every week, sent to a watery grave by rogue waves and sinking ships. Why do they do it? Perhaps because crab fishing is thought to be one of the last great gold rushes in the world. In a good year, an experienced deck hand working the short, eight-week season can bring home almost $50,000. But this isn't easy money

4.0 out of 5 stars Great show, January 1, 2009

This review is from: Deadliest Catch - Seasons 1, 2, & 3 (DVD)

The Deadliest Catch is a great series and the DVD's are almost just as they aired on TV, with the exception of the opening theme music, which overall is not that important. The only thing I wish there was more of on these DVD's is the "After the Catch" follow-up shows &/or more Behind the scenes foootage.

I purchased season 1 through 3 to catch up with the show as I just started watching it. I was not disappointed. If you are a fan of this show, you will love the DVD's.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed by Censoring, October 8, 2009

By

This review is from: Deadliest Catch - Seasons 1, 2, & 3 (DVD)

I was very disappointed that The Deadliest Catch is 'bleeped' on DVDs for home sale. I didn't mind on TV...but did not expect the retail DVDs to be bleeped...and there is no rating shown on the selling site to warn you. I wanted the whole series, but won't buy any more. It's not that I love swearing, either! I guess it's just the awful 'bleeping', and fuzzing over the mouth..it makes me wish to just hear what they're saying. I just think we should have a choice.
