since we're discussing reality tv

Sad news this morning: Phil Harris, captain of the Cornelia Marie fishing boat featured on Deadliest Catch, has died in Alaska. He was 53.

Harris suffered a massive stroke on Jan. 29 while the Cornelia Marie was in port at St. Paul Island, Alaska. The boat captain was flown to Anchorage for surgery.

"It is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our dad - Captain Phil Harris. Dad has always been a fighter and continued to be until the end," sons Josh and Jake Harris said in a statement on the Cornelia Marie site. "For us and the crew, he was someone who never backed down."

In a statement the network said, "Discovery mourns the loss of dear friend and colleague Captain Phil Harris. He was more than someone on our television screen. Phil was a devoted father and loyal friend to all who knew him. We will miss his straightforward honesty, wicked sense of humor and enormous heart. We share our tremendous sadness over this loss with the millions of viewers who followed Phil's every move. We send our thoughts and prayers to Phil's sons Josh and Jake and the Cornelia Marie crew."

Agree with both. I used to watch it but then it became the same old $hit. I liked it better before they thought they had become rockstars.

You should hear the mechanic that was on the first episode then left. He has his own shop in upstate NY and a friend of mince from CF knows him. He fucking hates those 2.

If you're talking about the same guy I'm thinking of I liked him best of all to be honest. He sort of got the shaft imho but of course it wasn't his shop but still. Vinnie ??? I started to mention him in my post above but couldn't/can't remember his name.
