Oh dear God, just as I'm getting used to the new season, DC decided to put on a two hour special about Josh following Phil's map to Hawaii to catch fishing gold. Whatever. If I hadn't fallen asleep, I would have turned the thing off. It was the same hero worship of Phil by Josh that has gotten very, very old. I wasn't impressed.

I started to watch the show last night but when I turned it on, there was Josh. Needless to say, since I DVR the show, I decided to watch the reruns of Big Bang Theory. I just can't do Josh at all.
Disco needs to get over this Phil/Josh nonsense. They have ridden it to death and dug it back up. Please let Phil rest. The man died 10 years ago and we already know what type of father he really was when the boys were younger.

It never seses to amaze me how people completely unrelated to the situation can have such strong feeling about people and there offspring. You hate Josh for wanting to follow and be like his father, but you hate his father because you saw him on t.v. and then realized he wasn't who you believed him to be. You all are 2 faced in believing that your lives are any different.

Sorry, but I haven't seen any comment about anyone hating Josh or Phil. We are just tired of the emphasis on this one relationship out of many on DC. It's been overdone.

How dare you make such a statement ! When people first started watching this show we only knew what we were shown about each fisherman. It was not until much later after Phil passed that the whole truth of what a poor father he was. He had dropped hints about feeling guilty but that was all we knew. Later we learned he was a poor excuse of a father who knew his kids were being physically(particularly Jake) and mentally abused and did nothing to stop it. He was a poor role model who was either drunk or abusing drugs most of the time while home. Disco almost made him out to be a saint. When this all came out they said something along the lines that he was a flawed person and father.
As far as I have seen here, most people do not hate Josh. They are tired of the Phil and Josh story. They exploited Phil while he was dying and have continued to do it for the last ten years. People are tired of it. They will do anything to make a buck and that sadly includes Josh.

When did the series start up again? I thought the first episode was this week, but when I watched the episode that was on before the Josh looks for gold nonsense, it looked like I missed a few episodes.
I wish they would show less of Josh doing anything. I also wish they would stop making Harley look like a jerk. I have read that he is a really good guy, and I don't see any need to have a "bad guy" every season.

Drama, drama, drama - if it doesn't happen on the boats then DC will make it up. I've stopped believing in what might be manufactured and just enjoy watching the crews catch crab. I like Harley - and DC is not going to change that.
