Ice Road Truckers

Anyone else not that impressed with king crab legs.

I love the show, but being from Maryland... it's kinda hard to work myself about eating shipped frozen crab legs.

I'd go blue crab every time over a king crab.

Deadliest Catch is repetitive when they pull the crab. but there are some very funny moments in the show. oh yea, 70Chip, do you know about how much each person on a ship makes????? well they make from 30,000-60,000 dollars each season. there are two seasons in a year, opelio and king crab. so that means they make almost 80,000 dollars a year.

Yeah. I saw the Hanson brothers interviewed by Donnie Deutch. I think the captains make more like 500k clear. They earn it as far as I'm concerned. Just watching those boats go up and down makes me ill. I just think at some point it's like, okay, we get it. I'd actually be more interested to find out what they do the other eight months of the year at this point.

Have any of you seen "After The Catch"?

Yeah, I have, it's good to hear about the things that were not televised. I like the deadliest catch cause I love the ocean and traveling by the ocean...I am more into the waves than anything.

I did not watch the show, mainly cause I thought the advertising sucks. A truck travels across ice...that's it? That didn't peak my interest.

It's not that its not an interesting show. But i don't get why they have to drive to the mine. why can they send the stuff they in in helicopters and planes. it would be so much easier and not as dangerous.

I'm totally hooked on Truckers right now. There's no way you could get me driving up that lake. That's really an insane job.

It's cool for sure. Last nights was a repeat from last week but still good.

I'll be watching it for a while for sure. Deadliest Catch is very cool too.

Someone needs to start a freight shipping service to cater specifically to that area. What about shipping the stuff using boats when its not frozen?
If the mines are worth that much wouldn't it be logical to use airplanes or helicopters? I missed the point on that one. But nevertheless Im watching.

I don't think helicopters can work in that kind of environment...and I think it would be tough to work planes in that kind of environment due to blinding snow and hurricane type winds.
