Whale Wars
This is my favorite show, hands down not just for entertainment value but because I really appreciate and support Paul Watson and the Sea Shepherds' mission. There is a forum in Food Fight to debate anything about the orgainization,

but in here those who like it, (like me!) can talk about the show. The offical first show is on next Friday, but if you have Comcast On-Demand you can watch the first episode of season three. Its awesome, they recieved a 5 million dollar donation from Bob Barker and got two more boats, (one speedy high-tech one to catch the harpooning ships, and one ghost-ship that was unknown to everyone.) In the first episode they already encounter a harpoon vessel, after about 6 days into their mission. This is refreshing after so many missions in past seasons where they don't find the whalers until right before they are going to run out of fuel. The crew eats vegan on board and Paul Watson has a long history of animal advocacy, he is my hero! Heres a link to catch up on episodes from past seasons on animal planet

heres a link to the Sea Shepherds' website to learn about Paul, missions, and crew members.

My favorites are Paul, (of course,) Peter Hamersdt is the first mate or something, and hes awesome too! The guys that boarded the ship that one time are pretty hard core too!

that's too bad....and I greatly admire Pete for what he did, but he knew what he was getting into....
but I do believe that Paul is less than honest a lot of the time....
There's a song for sale ($2.50) where all of the proceeds benefit the SSCS. I bought it and keep listening to it over and over. I said they should blast this song from the ships as they get close to the Japanese. Anyone else buy it? The song is called Ocean Defenders: http://www.reverbnation.com/nailz161

**time to bump this***
Anyobe see the new episode? Lots of new stuff, new boat, and new helicopter....thoughts?
Yep. watched it this weekend. A lot of new people I don't recognize and I don't see Laurens anywhere...he's so cute. Paul irritates me - his annoyance with the helicopter issue was unnecessary.
No :( They pulled Animal Planet from my TV and put up a hunting/all animal abuse station.
Anyone know where I can watch it online?

I know, he is such an adovcate, but a little much sometimes :) Yeah, a lot of new people, Laurens is cute!
Minke---I know on their website sometimes they have past episodes, hopefully it will be up there soon!
I'm looking on Hulu for it but can't find anything other than clips. I've never used Hulu before so I hope I'm using it correctly.
Nvm: Think I found it on another site.
Does anyone know if this is on an On Demand channel? I'm going to have access to a tv tomorrow night that I think might have On Demand.
What a great season with an even better season finale! :)
Did anyone else see the special that aired after the season finale of Whale Wars?
