Deadliest Catch Season 18 Release Date Announced
Deadliest Catch Season 18
Was Deadliest Catch cancelled or renewed for season 18? When does it start on Discovery? Who will be returning for the new season? In this post, we have summarized everything we know so far about the next season.
What Is Deadliest Catch About?
A documentary series chronicling the real-life high-sea adventures of the Alaskan crab fishermen. This is the most deadly profession in the world.
It’s the deadliest job on earth: crab fishing off the Alaska coast on the icy Bering Sea, home of the most violent waters on earth. During each crabbing season, a handful of adventurers will battle Arctic weather, brutal waves, and a ticking clock for a chance at big money in this modern day gold rush. Working around the clock, and often going days without sleep, this unique breed of men, part adventurer part fisherman, will set out upon an unforgettable odyssey.
Before complaining about the market price of Alaska king crab, check out this gripping documentary series, revealing the mortal perils and intense discomfort that fishing crews face on the Bering Sea to catch the delicacy. Those perils include 40-foot waves, 700-pound crab pots that can easily crush a careless crewman, and freezing temperatures around the clock.
In the wake of the global pandemic, half the crab boats of the Bering Sea fleet are tied up in Seattle. Now an existential threat faces the fishermen who make the long-haul trip to Dutch Harbor, Alaska, for the 2021 Crab season – a potential closure of the entire fishery. Crabbing isn’t just a way of life for the captains and their crew. This year, it’s a fight for the industry’s survival. If they’re going to make it work, the fleet will need to make sacrifices and band together across lines – even with long-sworn enemies. Their livelihood depends on it or they could potentially face the end of their careers. DEADLIEST CATCH returns with a season like no other before, streaming exclusively first on Friday, March 19 on discovery+, ahead of the season premiere airing Tuesday, April 20 at 8 PM ET/PT on Discovery.
It’s been a tough year for everyone, especially for the crabbing fleet in Alaska. Due to government-imposed lockdowns, Alaska Department of Fish and Game weren’t able to conduct their summer crab survey. Meaning this year, the captains will be fishing blind with no charts or guidance on where to find crab on the grounds – making an already challenging season even more difficult. It doesn’t take long for the captains to realize that they can’t start this season without a new approach.

Please bring back this show it is my favorite, I love that show. Because I was supposed to move to anchorage Alaska but it fell through the cracks and I didn’t go. So that is why I love the show so much and I miss it.
Deadliest catch and Bloodline have been my favorite shows since their inceptions. Having lived in the Pacific Northwest and Alaska I had befriended several crabbers and commercial fishermen. Their stories are real and must be heard by the rest of our great country.
Can do without Bloodline… it's ok but not great.. Have been watching Deadliest Catch since the beginning. Can't wait for Season 18
Please bring back Deadliest Catch for 2021-2022, me and my 4 kids have watched the show since the beginning with Captain Phil Harris! Please be safe out there guys!

Please do not cancel this show. I’ve watched since day 1 and am absolutely in love with it. It’s the only seasonal show I wait to begin a new season. No one and I mean no one stops me from going fishing with these guys.
