I am – Hercules


Discovery is contemplating a special to honor the memory of Phil Harris, star of the channel’s reality series “The Deadliest Catch.”

Harris, captain of the commercial crab-fishing boat Cornelia Marie for 19 years, suffered a stroke Jan. 29 and passed away Tuesday at age 53.

Whether the special goes forward or not, Harris is expected to be a major part of the sixth season of the series, which begins airing in April.
