So the glass delivery system for the second myth tonight is a prime example of them doing stuff out of order. There's no way they went all the way out there and got everything ready for a shoot without working out a delivery system.

Eh, the free fall pane smashing against the ground was a pretty high speed shot, and the guided pane hitting the dummy was

That was an odd way to end the episode. That shot of the rig failing looked dangerous as hell.

That was annoying. It's not like they haven't done skeletons in the gel dummies before. Or a pig. Would a pig be too gory?

Not too gory for basic cable, but probably for the target demo they want. Deadliest Warrior had no issues with such things. Also, it is funny that one episode after they mention using blue water for blood for gore reasons, they put red blood in the very next dummy in the next episode.

It was kind of sad watching it knowing that the Seahawks lost, too. All that work for naught. I still think him going for a dive under the boat all those years ago was stupider, though.

Am I the only one willing to admit to watching Naked and Afraid? 40 day challenges seem pretty legit. They were usually limping to the 21 day finish line in past seasons.

The buildup to the crabbers' letdown at the end of the Super Bowl because of Pete Carroll's amazing stupidity, especially in light of the equally creative and stupid ferry system to the mid-sea Super Bowl party, was entertaining as hell.

I think my favorite part was Keith telling everyone to wear survival suits and then in the skiff he had his survival suit over his shoulders like a coat.

SalTheBard posted:I couldn't loving believe that poo poo. Keith is my least favorite Captain, but man I feel bad for him with his poo poo Greenhorns. Its my belief that a crabber like Jake Anderson is 1 in a million and Sig was smart to make him a full share as quickly as he did. I think the kiska sea poo poo on him because from my limited google most crabbers not on the show hate the deadliest catch. I have read that there is even one captain who under bids everyone to get a quota that he can only afford because discover channel picks up the tab. Also why do the deckhands talk poo poo when they are working if they can be heard by the captain? I never understood that. Like last nights episode and everyone saying the druggie elliot would be better then Jake.

I have read that there is even one captain who under bids everyone to get a quota that he can only afford because discover channel picks up the tab. I have never seen a behind the scenes explanation for how the captains can hear everything being said on deck. They make it seem like it is coming over an intercom, and I know that most of, if not all of the decks, do have one, but that is usually in one spot on the deck, and the person has to stand near it to use it. Not sure how people talking poo poo by the launcher are being heard over it. The microphone would have to be permanently transmitting, and also sensitive as hell, and I feel like they would mostly only be hearing wind, water, and mechanical noises at that point, based on my own experiences with various mics and recording in various conditions. It would make more sense if the crew were wearing mics for production, which is something, again, I don't remember them mentioning BTS. Because then the captain could have an audio monitor just like the producers would (but it wouldn't sound like it does on the show, it would sound crystal clear, unless for some reason they were running the production audio through the radio speakers in the cabin.) But it seems weird that they never bring that up in their BTS stuff, unless I have missed it.

It has to be a discovery channel thing because it easily sparks drama as we can see.
