New documentary Back To The Titanic will debut April 12, fan-favourite reality show Deadliest Catch comes back April 21 for its 16th season.
For the first time in nearly 15 years, a team dives down to the RMS Titanic to examine the condition of the wreck and pay homage to those who perished. Please click here for more.
Beginning with a two-hour premiere, the Deadliest Catch crew is still chasing king crabs off the Alaska, battling Arctic weather, a punishing Bering Sea, and the clock for a chance at big money.
“We’re thrilled to be presenting Back To The Titanic, the most definitive account yet of the wreck of the Titanic. Join us for what may be the last visit to the wreck before it disintegrates beyond recognition,” said Edwina Follows, general manager, Discovery Networks, Bell Media, in the press release.
This season, for the first time ever on Deadliest Catch, the Alaskan crab fleet faces off against their biggest rival – the Russians. The captains must push into uncharted territory, including one veteran actually going to Russia. Season 16 brings new fishing alliances, former Catch captains returning to the fleet, and a worldwide, headline-grabbing winter storm that pounds their crab boats.
Season 15 reached more than 3.3 million Canadians and the show was a Top 10 program for Discovery among A25-54 during the 2018/19 broadcast year, said the release.
