Discovery Channel's episodes of fishing the Bering Sea for opelio crab has entranced viewers worldwide and become one the networks biggest selling series. It is viewed by audiences around the world and has been nominated for a show of high end awards. It sets itself apart from many other reality television series in that it has more layers and a deeper meaning to it than a lot of the trash out there.
What is it exactly that has brought this franchise to Deadliest Catch 2012 and kept it plain sailing? It's the fact that it shows real lives and real drama, nothing is manufactured and set up to create more engaging shots. The events you see on the show are completely real and correlate with the actual working life of a deep sea crab fishing vessel. This is like a breath of fresh air for viewers, as they are often showered with false reality television painting a jaded picture of events and actions.
A majority of Alaskan crab fishing show on Discovery Channel's content is popular with all viewers for the simple reason that they can relate to it. Not in a practical sense that the families have been crab fishing or on the most dangerous waters on earth, but in the sense that many of the workers on the ships featured in the show are related. They have to cooperate through very serious situations in which everyone's safety is at risk. They have to put aside any altercations they have and work together. This is a great lesson for families to learn, and it is shown on the show almost every time.
There is the added factor in that the show makes you consider where your food actually comes from. For example when you are shopping round a supermarket it's likely that food has travelled from all around the globe to get to you. Very few of us actually take this into consideration when purchasing food. The efforts of people like the crews featured on deadliest catch all come together to provide the food that we all so often take for granted.
Because of these thought provoking themes deadliest catch goes beyond the likes of other reality TV shows. You get to escape reality and be put in the shoes of another person living a very different life. In this way it is kind of like alternate-reality TV, as deep sea crab fishing is a world that is completely alien to most of us.
It is quite likely that nobody could have forecasted the amount of success that this show has had. It started out as a point of interest and has exploded into a multifaceted franchise. There are now books released about the show both in autobiography format and general informational books. There are video games released about the show where players have to operate and successfully run a crab fishing vessel.
