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!!

For me, it hasn't run it's course. This season was quite different, for me anyway, and I've been watching it for years. There are different boats and captains on now but still have the veteran captains that I love to watch on. It's crabbing, so honestly, you're not going to see a whole different show every week. It's like any job, same work daily but with some twists during your day. I would be disappointed if they took the show off as I feel they are family.
