I just watched this episode. It was heartbreaking.

I usually watch the show but this is one I have no interest in.

Some months back one of the camera crew was arrested for distributing drugs and I can’t help but wonder if the addiction of Jake Harris wasn’t the result and in a round about way the stress of his son telling him didn’t contribute to Phil’s death.

Jake Anderson on the Northwestern is impressive in dealing with the things he’s gone through.

You could almost tell Phil knew the end was near when he was asking for his ‘lucky charm’. RIP Capt. Phil.

After having watched this show, I can never eat King Crab the same way again.

The discovery channel handled it very well, very respectful. Nothing to complain about. Semed like a good guy.

Slotting the show against the All Star Game was not a good idea.

I thank everyone who works hard to keep the program “real” and the men on the boats, including the camera crews and techs are as “real” as you can get.

Capt. Harris, we already miss you.

Captain Phil. A man among men. Obama could learn a lot from him.

If Captain Phil had known that he was going to live so long, he would have taken better care of himself. Fair winds, a following sea, and never a lee shore.

At no point did the series succumb to dumb voyeurism.

On the other hand...

Captain Phil paid a visit to Morgan Hill, CA in summer of 2008. Here's a shot that I took of him at a local bar on his promotional tour.

This is a great show, though one I suspected I wouldn’t like. We’re so saddened by the Captain’s death.

It made me think of my youngest brother who was a river boat pilot. Those folks work hard and some of them play even harder.It caught up with him at the tender age of 45 - much too young like Capt. Phil.RIP.
