Re: 'Deadliest Catch' tv show is apparently a scam as well
Tuesday's fourth-season premiere of Discovery Channel's "Deadliest Catch" opens during a raging nighttime storm in the Bering Sea. Mammoth waves smash an Alaskan crab fishing boat called the Wizard, sending large swells crashing over its deck. Inside, alarmed crew members discover that their stateroom is flooding with incoming seawater.
The sequence suggests that the fishermen are in danger of sinking as a violent tempest tosses huge waves against the boat.
But here's the not-so-deadliest catch:
The boat flooded in September.
The huge storm waves were from October.
And a producer may have filmed extra footage to help stitch the two events together.

Like I have been saying for years about all this various reality crap, people need to stop watching this shit. They are dumbing us down to the point of oblivion, and people just keep lapping it up.
Re: 'Deadliest Catch' tv show is apparently a scam as well
I cannot stand reality tv. The only show I ever watched was the first few seaons of UFC's the ultimate fighter. That was only b/c they had a real fight at the end of every episode.
But as I'm sure I've said before, there is no such thing as "reality TV"...the minute you put a camera in front of a person, it ceases to be reality. Noone acts the same way on camera as they do sitting alone around the house.

Quoted for truth.
This happens to anybody. Go put a camera in front of someone. Their demeanor changes immediately. Some people who are very upfront and care free will become a shy mute the moment a cam is aimed in their direction. Just the opposite, some people who are usually reserved will open up a bit more on cam, obviously for attention.
Adding scripted bullshit into the equation doesn't help matters much either.

My interest peaked in reality t.v. with "The Real World" series. TRW: Paris was the last one I watched which was very good in my opinion. After that I became tired of reality t.v. and I've never been interested enough to watch any of it again.

Reality TV has got to be the biggest oxymoron in history.
