Deadliest Catch is a documentary/reality television series produced by Original Productions for the Discovery Channel. It portrays the real life events aboard fishing vessels in the Bering Sea during the Alaskan king crab and C. opilio crab fishing seasons.

 

The series follows life on "the vast Bering Sea" aboard five or more crab fishing boats (the four featured vessels—Cornelia Marie, Wizard, Northwestern, and Time Bandit—and one or more "wild card" boats that are shown for all or part of a single season) during two of the dangerous crab fishing seasons, the October king crab season and the January C. opilio crab (a.k.a. C. opilio; often referred to as "snow crab" or "opies") season.
