Product Description
From the Discovery Channel's hit series!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 $50000. But this isn't easy money. Crushed fingers crippled hands cracked ribs and broken feet are common in this working environment where the injury rate stands at almost one hundred percent. Now the hair-raising reality adventure comes to DVD in this thrilling 5-DVD set containing all 10 episodes: "Greenhorns" "Long Sleepless Nights" "Lady Luck" "Beat the Clock" "Dead of Winter" "Man Overboard" "High Hopes" "Good Fishing" "The Clock's Ticking" and "The Final Run."System Requirements:Running Time: 150 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: NR UPC: 014381389623 Manufacturer No: DIS3896DVD

Meet the ships and crews January 7, 2009
This is a super interesting show about crab fishing in Alaskan waters. Mike Rowe does an excellent job as narrator telling the story of these men.
Riveting. Engaging. Exciting. Dangerous. January 1, 2009
DEADLIEST CATCH is one of the most riveting series on TV.
The work alone is incrediblly dangerous and difficult on heaving decks in freezing seas with wind and weather assailing every footstep. The evidence of this lies in the 90 lost souls over the past twenty years of those who ventured to challenge Alaska's Bering Sea.
But the real drama of the series lies in the characters themselves; the Wizard's captain Keith, Jonathan of Time Bandit, the damaged Phil aboard Cornelia Marie (and his sons), Sig and his family on the Northwestern and so many other brave and hearty souls. They become like part of the family as we cheer their victories, grieve their losses and laugh with them in the joy of their work and play. You come to love Jacob, the great-hearted kid on the Cornelia Marie and to see through Jonathan's quirkiness to his heart for his men and his ship. Sig's toughness metls as he reveals the depth of his pain in losing friends and comrades to the Bering Sea.
This series is a brilliant, vivid, dramatic testimony to the "men who go down to the sea in ships." May God bless and keep them.
