That's...wow. Derby-style seems too rushed to me.
On another note, I just saw what I believe was the last episode and the crew of the Northwestern returned, in the end, home in Seattle. It was just so touching to see them reunited with their families. And Edgar's comment that (and I'm paraphrasing) "Once you get into Puget(sp?) Sound, no matter how bad the season's been, you think, 'it wasn't that bad'."

It was... and that's why the fatality rate was so high. It was a race to get the most crab you can before everyone else did. Most of the derby trips... crews stayed up for up to 60+ hours (well, that's what I've heard.) And when your that worn out and the bering sea kicks up a nice storm... something bad is bound to happen
Just a small bit on Phil Harris... I've seen the bits of how his heath has been all that great and I will say what it was Spoiler- In a scene to be shown later this season, a monster wave pummeled his boat in January, causing him to fall out of his bunk. He punctured a lung and broke his ribs. But his condition worsened after a blood clot dislodged from his leg and traveled to his heart. I knew it was bad but... dang.

I want to know what happens to him next week. I really hope he gets better, because that's not good, especially out at sea (especially that sea!).

That blood clot going to his heart is not the problem so much as going through the right heart circulation and then clogging into the lungs. It's called pulmonary embolism, and it can kill.

Another new episode to night, I think this is the one where it's going to focus more on Phil's health.

I only got to watch about half of it, but from what I got Phil finally started resting. And it's almost the end of King Crab season...

Yeah... phils diet of red bull, coffie and smokes are starting to take a toll on him and his health. I know I've seen the Preview for the next new episode and someone (it looks like) on the northwestern takes a direct hit to the head with the picking hook.... and the CM looses power? should be good!

I saw that commercial, and the hook part made me cringe. It should definitely be interesting. Originally Posted by Cloud23465
