So, I'm weird. I never watched the show before I was an observer (it might have been a good idea- I might have decided against going in the first place!), but now I do watch it from time to time. Usually not even full eps, but occasional viewing.
I have to say that I don't miss it! On the one hand, I might consider going out for a contract (3 months) to get some money... on the other hand... While my second contract -was- better than the first because I was on catcher boats where I could be outside (freezing my ass off), instead of being on a catcher processor (where I was inside going insane)... I still hated everything about it. They pay so much though. Which is the only reason they have people come back.
If I was going back out, you wouldn't catch me watching the show though. It'd give me anxiety attacks. :P I do still have anxiety attacks about it sometimes, but without the stress of going back out, it's gotten a lot better.
