‘Bering Sea Gold’ Fans Say Brad Kelly Is A Psychopath
Over the years, viewers of Bering Sea Gold have come to know the Kelly clan. However, some fans feel that the family patriarch, Brad, rubs them the wrong way. Taking to social media, fans discussed the figure on the show, with him getting both critics and defenders.
One Bering Sea Gold Fan Summed Brad Kelly Up As ‘Hilarious’
Bering Sea Gold is a reality series set on the Norton Sound inlet. Coming from the creators of Deadliest Catch, the series focuses on gold miners during the dredging seasons.
On the series, Brad Kelly is the patriarch of the Kelly family. He brought his sons, Kris and Andy, to Nome in the hopes of finding treasure. Having had his sons as a teenager, his relationship with them has often been compared to brothers as opposed to a father and sons. Seeing firsthand such an endeavor is harder than it already seems to be, the series sees if Brad’s goals will pay off.
As previously reported, back in 2022, Brad also notably took a plea deal during a domestic violence case. At the time, as noted by TMZ, while receiving a jail sentence, it was believed he would end up spending less than a year behind bars.
On social media, a few fans have admitted that Brad has started to rub them the wrong way. As one fan wrote, “Am I the only one who finds Brad Kelley hilarious?”
“I mean he is the def of a psychopath. He has no emotion’s or feelings. He believes wat he say’s to. Man he kills me.”
Some Fans Thought The Original Poster Was Being Light On Brad, Others Think He’s The Best Parts Of The Show
“When he told Vern to settle down or he may have a heart attack I was dying. I mean he’s a snake but he’s a hustler to and although he does some grimy things he’s really not that dumb.”
“I know he beat the hell outta his gf and prob a psychopath but he cracks me up on early ones. Sean the Nome pimp love him to. He can get any female he wants.”
Taking to the comments, other fans of the series also weighed in. Some fans thought the original poster was being too easy on Brad. Others defended Brad, highlighting his past.
Some even admitted these antics are what makes the show for them. These comments include:
- “Hilarious? Uh, no. Guy is a violent criminal who abuses everyone around him. The mental damage to his sons makes him despicable.”
- “Agreed. Though I wonder what sort of a f’d up childhood he had …how’d he get so damaged? Brad showed a more caring side here and there but maybe that was just after he saw himself on camera and knew he was coming off as a total jerk.”
- “The way he constantly grinds his jaw side to side drives me insane. Either his dentures are loose or he’s a coke head or both.”
- “Kelly’s are my favorite on the show. I’m hoping they strike it rich.”
- “Naw I have a strong sense of humor and even dark and I think their family dynamic, especially Brad’s shadiness is just sad…wonder WTF Brad’s childhood was like and Kris’ and Andy’s.”
- “There’s no doubt in my mind that a lot of the what the Kelly’s do, especially in those early seasons was at least encouraged by the producers if it wasn’t out right scripted.”
