Two storms appear to be occurring....one on the Bearing Sea; the other between Captain Sig and brother Edgar.

Deadliest Catch #1 for second week Examiner.Com

"It was the #1 primetime cable show for the week, getting more viewers than Dancing with the Stars and NCIS." I'm not sure where these folks are pulling their numbers from but the aforementioned shows typically draw 16-20M viewers or 5-times the amount of DC viewers. While it may be possible they are comparing DC with syndicated reruns of NCIS airing on USA and PAX, viewers can only "Catch" Dancing with the Stars on ABC - and they drew 20 million viewers last week.

I saw Edgar on the local news the other day...the whole DC folks where in New Orleans doing an oyster festival or something.

A very powerful episode this week as Phil makes a shocking discovery about one of his sons. I never saw this coming. Never.

Didn't see it coming, but in a way it wasn't a surprise.

A Death Proves a Draw for ‘Deadliest Catch’NY Times

A Death Proves a Draw for ‘Deadliest Catch’NY Times

While DC is a huge cable draw, it is still the big fish in a small pond. Don't confuse being the number one cable show with being the number one overall. OTA shows get canceled with the kind of numbers that is a monster success for a cable show.

PS: Yes, I do watch the show, so not a anti-DC person, just want to keep the ratings in perspective as some of the ratings comments above are pure BS.

Nope, DC is a big fish (ratings hit) in a small pond (cable audience.)
