Deadliest Catch After The Catch Episode 5 2011

“High Tide”

In Oahu at The Shack the Captains gather for their last episode this season of After The Catch. Dawn Tiki is singing. I just noticed at the beginning of the show where they show the boots. The guys are wearing their jackets. It shouldn't be cold in Hawaii, certainly not the cold like they are used to.

Captains Keith Colburn, Andy Hillstrand, John Hillstrand and Sig Hansen are at the table. Mike Rowe asks were you feeling redemption out there. Captain Sig, there is always redemption where there is a good there is a bad. Mike Rowe says to Jonathan I thought you were the philosopher. Captain Andy, he’s a psychologist. Mike Rowe, Certainly if we’re going to talk about redemption then we have to bring the boys in. Because Jake and Josh Harris have had their hands full, they still have their hands full.

Deadliest Catch After The Catch Episode 4 2011

"Fresh Blood"

The boys all meet at The Shack in Oahu, Hawaii.

Jake Shimabukuro is playing the electric ukelele. The Captains say he is like Mozart, Mozart on steroids.

We have Mike Rowe, Captains Sig Hansen, Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand, Keith Colburn and Scott Campbell, Jr.

Hillstranded Becomes The Alaskan Monster Hunt

I had thought the spinoff show Hillstranded that caused a lawsuit in October 2010 was canceled. Evidently it was not. It was finished and renamed Alaskan Monster Hunt.

The Hillstrand brothers and the Time Bandit are on a mission to catch Alaska's version on the Loch Ness Monster. Oh my!

Deadliest Catch Vs. After The Catch

I just saw an article on the ratings for Deadliest Catch last week. The article was bragging about Deadliest Catch being the #1 Primetime cable show in certain demographics and # 3 in all of television, behind The Voice and America's Got Talent. Deadliest Catch had 3 million viewers. Great news.

After The Catch was #5 in all of cable with 1.64 million viewers. Yea!!!

Now what I don't understand is how does someone watch Deadliest Catch and not watch After The Catch? Do we have Deadliest Catch viewers that don't know what After The Catch is?

Deadliest Catch After The Catch Episode 3 2011

Henry Kapono is singing and playing the guitar this week.

This episode is called "Save Me". Motivated by something Johnathan Hillstrand said last week. Captain Johnathan is excited he even gave a shout out to his mom. I love that Johnathan and Andy always talk about their mom. I learned last week she runs their Time Bandit store.

Mike Rowe, Johnathan Hillstrand, Andy Hillstrand, Sig Hansen and Keith Colburn are at the table.

Deadliest Catch After The Catch Episode 2 2011

"Relentless & Brutal"

We have Captains Andy Hillstrand, Johnathan Hillstrand, Keith Colburn, and Sig Hansen at the table.

They are discussing the storms. Captain Keith Colburn talked about how the storm was so concentrated and looked like a hurricane on the radar. Captain Johnathan said they get typhoons and cyclones cause they are on the western side. He said the eastern side gets hurricanes.

They show some clips of the guys on the boats getting nailed by waves, running from pots and just fighting the weather and then Captain Sig screaming Get down! as that big wave hit the wheelhouse. Mike Rowe asked Sig who he was talking to Sig said the camera man cause I didn't want him to die!

"Bird Bones And Blood"

The Deadliest Catch cast has said there were a lot of broken bones this season. I expect we will start seeing them this week after watching last weeks storm.

Ok, so let's see.

After The Catch Johnathan Hillstrand Fight With Neese

For those of you who seen the picture of Captain Johnathan's black eye, yes the rumors are flying. For those of you who didn't here's a picture of Johnathan Hillstrand with his new tiki cut and black eye.

They did a pretty good job of hiding his shiner on After The Catch I just thought he had a puffy eye.

Deadliest Catch After The Catch Hawaii 2011

Opie Season continues amidst the Artic hurricane. It's ugly out.

The Northwestern gets hits with a thirty five foot wave that nearly shattered the front window of the wheelhouse. Captain Sig Hansen decides to quit fishing since he can't control what he wants the boat to do.

Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand and Sig Hansen On Rachel Ray

OMG too funny the boys went on Rachel Ray. I almost missed it, because I don't usually watch Rachel Ray. My mom does though, she emailed me to let me know they were on. Of course I got the email too late, I thought.

Finally something good out of the Casey Anthony Trial. Since all of the local networks have been airing the trial all day Rachel Ray didn't air until 2am so I was able to watch it. Yea!!!!

Deadliest Catch - After The Catch In Hawaii And Other Updates

The Captains are in Hawaii, well some of them anyway. I just saw a notice from Discovery that they are filming After The Catch in Hawaii. There was a short clip with Keith Colburn, Sig Hansen, Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand. No words just them in a little boat. The caption also said they think Jake Harris, Josh Harris, Derrick Ray and Tony Lara are coming as well.  YouTube Video There was no mention of Wild Bill, Scott Campbell, or Elliot Neese. So I don't know about them. Hummm.

Deadliest Catch Season 7 Episode 8 Recap Graduation Day

"Graduation Day"

We start out with the Seabrooke. The seas look awfully calm from the aerial view. What beautiful shots. 

A 1200 hundred mile wide Arctic Hurricane is headed for the Blue Crab grounds and in 19 hours will cover the Red Crab grounds. Well I guess the shots above where the calm before the storm.

Deadliest Catch and NASCAR Collide

Captain Andy will be at the NASCAR Charlotte Coca-Cola 600 this weekend.

So for all you Nascar fans that also love Deadliest Catch, stop by and visit Captain Andy. He will be hanging with the Jim Beam guys.

The last time I spoke with Captain Andy about this he was unsure if Captain Johnathan would attend or not. I'm still waiting to hear from Johnathan.

Deadliest Catch Season 7 Episode 5 Recap

"A Wing And A Prayer"

A very interesting episode to say the least.

We get to see the Northwestern. Yea! We will get to see if Jake Anderson caught any crab on the string he set. Oh no the boat has lost all power and is headed for the dock. Edgar Hansen to the rescue! Edgar can't leave, what would they do without him? Where was Nick? Why wasn't he down in the engine room helping? Edgar says this season is going to be legendary. That kind of concerns me. When they first lost power Captain Sig Hansen screamed Edgar drop the anchor, but Edgar went to the engine room and started the backup generator. Captain Sig Hansen is going on about nobody was going to set the anchor, that if Jake Anderson wants to be a Captain he can't just wait for somebody else to handle it. Looked to me like Jake Anderson was doing something he had that big ole rope he was putting up.

Deadliest Catch CatchCon 2011 Seattle, WA - Fan Festival Report

Two of the main reporters were Tary Southern and Matt McManus.

There were games, relay races, a beer garden and loads of fans from all over. There were fans from New Zealand, South Carolina and Arizona all over the place.

No I didn’t get to go to the Fan Festival, but I sure wished I could have. I did have some issues with my internet connection and Discovery was having some streaming issues, so I didn’t catch everything, but I still managed to gather a lot of exciting information. There are a couple baby spoilers but nothing really big, so it’s safe to read. This article is pretty long but there were tons of things going on. It was an all day event after all.

Oh, the things I learned.

Deadliest Catch 7 - 2011 - Hillstrands and Hansens Return

There is news here but I don't think any of it is real spoilers... so safe to read.

Some of you may have heard there was a legal dispute between Johnathan and Andy Hillstrand with The Discovery Channel, and they were not returning to the show.

Well here's the scoop. In October, 2010 it was reported that The Discovery Channel sued the Hillstrands for $3 million for failing to finish work on a spin off show called "Hillstranded".  The Hillstrands counter sued saying that the lawsuit would force them to sell their boat, so they quit the show. To show support of the Hillstrands, Sig Hansen also quit the show. Go Sig!
