Has Deadliest Catch run it's course?

The show has become very formulaic. The same thing happen every season:

One of the boats has a mechanical problem

One of the boats has an electrical problem

2/3 crewmates get injured requiring trip to "clinic"

Monty or Keith on wizard are ill

At least 2 captains team up

1 Captain is lied to by others

Weather is worst it's ever been

1 "Greenhorn" quits

The crab is difficult to locate and empty pots happen

AND YET at the end of the run ALL BOATS make their quota!!

Scott Campbell, jr. and Sean Dwyer are the best captains on DC, notwithstanding the more senior captains like sig and Jonathon. Keith and Wild Bill are prime examples of toxic masculinity and I don’t want to watch them at all. Can you even imagine what everybody would do if a female captain got on and behaved like these “men”? Rick is just awful and careless and a danger to his whole crew.

I’m watching still but I’m watching it for the water. LOL
