Three ship captains from Discovery's reality series "Deadliest Catch" have quit, the Hollywood Reporter reports.

It’s OK. It’s a waste of a perfectly good documentary channel
The unscripted parts are SO much better.
Let's get Kari Byron in a bikini and a crew of skimpy clad hotties to run a crab boat. Not in the Bearing Sea, but off Hawaii.
They wouldn't catch much, but I bet they'd boost the ratings.
/sarcasm
A hollywood big-wig likely shouldn’t get into a pissing match with a professional fisherman. They’re man enough call your bluff.

With Byron’s knowledge of explosives ... I’d bet they’d catch something.

Well if Sig and Phil are gone guess I’m gone too.
Well, there goes that show. Phil was my favorite, with Sig a very close second.
I won’t watch it anymore, either.
Stupid move, Discovery. Very stupid.
Guess I’m the odd ball. I liked Edgar best. Wonder if he hung up his ‘skins.
My new show would feature them on Military Channel armed with coaxial .50s in the Gulf of Adin.
good times...
Kari herself decided to take time off the program during the later stages of her pregnancy. She actually did an article (in some women’s magazine) about pregnancy myths. I’m just glad she’s back. Even after a kid, she’s rocket hot.
Loosing Sig was a big blow to the show. He was involved behind the scenes as a technical director.
Don’t know if the show can continue. The Conellia Marie will only be used for the first crab season then has to be in dock for extensive repairs. That leaves the Kodiak and the Wizard to fill out the time
Think its time to turn out the lights and move on
I used to watch “Ice Road Truckers” but it got boring. Now I wouldn’t watch even if Lisa drove naked.
“Deadliest Catch.”>>>>>
Great show but go to Time Bandit’s Facebook page. It’s swarming with the babes who like and lust after the Hillstrand brothers. That show has a great female demographic .... surprising to me!
Skip one season and Deadliest Catch can make a comeback. Get the Hillstrands and Sig back or find some new young hungry crabbers. The Hillstrands have been raking it in doing appearances and endorsements.
Maybe they don’t need the money
I sympathize, I was addicted to the Weather Channel.
I wouldn’t watch even if Lisa drove naked.
That's a bold statement, and I don't believe you ;)
Ping!!
So the cable network thinks they own these guys now?
With the extensive coverage of Capt. Phil’s illness and death, the program was slowly sinking into a soap opera class show, anyway. When the “desk-jockies” started to mess around with the “real men” it spelled the show’s complete doom.
