Reddit thread was started by Deadliest Catch fans who feel that Wild Bill has been getting a little carried away lately with his aggression. The OP suggested he spends every season complaining about someone on his crew. They also say he is always talking about hitting people. They finished by saying they wish someone would fight back and that this is why he has no relationship with his child.

It seemed harsh, but many of the commenters seemed to agree with the overall sentiment:

  • “It’s giving Real Housewives of Dutch Harbor.”
  • “It’s obvious why his son works on another boat. You’d think that would give him pause for a bit of self-reflection but….”
  • “he was really chill those episodes where he had the little dog with him. He just needs an emotional support dog. lol.”
