Ask TV Squad: When will Deadliest Catch return?

I don't know if the HD cameras can survive the elements on board ... but it would definitely be cool to see everything in HD

But will it be in HD so it can air on Discovery HD?

This is pretty much the only reality television i watch, it doesnt put people into manufactured conditions, just films them doing what they do.

Though, you have to believe the boat crews play it up for the cameras... something about heisenberg and uncertainty and the inability to observe things without changing them comes to mind. still much more 'real' than survivor or realworld stuff.

I hope they find a way to make season 3 more exciting than season 2. I was a little disappointed last year, because with the addition of the quota system (which allowed boats to catch only a set limit, rather than the previous first-come-first-served free-for-all), it didn't seem like the crews were working at quite the frenzied pace as the first season. Less excitement all around. The quota change also made the "Netscape Crab Count" scoreboard they showed before commercial breaks pointless and silly, because we already knew each ship was only going to catch their predetermined limit and go home. Under the old system, it would have been a great idea - root for your favorite crew and watch their progress relative to the other boats. Regardless, I'll be waiting patiently until this show returns...

Not a problem. :)

Best,
