When it comes to the family on Deadliest Catch, sometimes it's not just the chosen family that sets sail on these stressful missions. Sometimes, viewers can witness the dynamics of actual blood relatives. Since the very beginning, Deadliest Catch has focused on various fishing vessels, including F/V The Northwestern. Of course, The Northwestern is led by Captain Sig Hansen, and his crew included his brother, Edgar Hansen. But due to some real-life consequences, the once fan-favorite star of Deadliest Catch disappeared from the program.
