The Deadliest Catch

A TV show on Discovery that actually garnered them an Emmy. It's about (Alaskan King) crab fishing in the Bering Sea. To describe it as wildly successful is an understatement.The guys that crew the boats, the captains are all minor celebrities now. And, one of the boats has a website where you can buy stuff.

Who knew that cable TV would make stars out of guys fishing for crab? And that a guy who started out as a presenter on QVC (Mike Rowe...look for some of his stuff on Youtube where you KNOW he's hit the mary jane a couple times before coming on stage) is the narrator and has his OWN kickass show, Dirty Jobs.
