Deadliest Catch's Elliott Neese Has One Regret About Season 8

The fact that Elliot Neese felt disappointed with how “Deadliest Catch” incorporates footage of his family is unsurprising, given multiple grievances that have kept him at odds with the series in the wake of his departure.

For instance, in a brief press release published through Newswire, Neese claimed that current Saga captain Jake Anderson isn’t actually in charge of his boat despite appearing to be on-screen. “A TV captain will be on the show — Jake Anderson,” Neese said just prior to Anderson’s first appearance helming the ship. “The real captain won’t be seen on the show.”

Similarly, on his personal Twitter account, Neese accused “Deadliest Catch” of incorporating footage of him and his crew in a manner that makes him look worse than the other featured captains, which he didn’t feel accurately reflected reality. “All you people out there only see what DC wants! There are worse things going on on other boats but they just choose to expose my hardships,” he wrote.

As fans are well aware, Neese doesn’t come off in all that flattering a light throughout his “Deadliest Catch” run, hence his antagonistic relationship with the series. Whether his portrayal is fair or not, then, is something that’s up to each individual viewer to decide.
