DENVER (May 12, 2016) – From finding one of nature’s hidden gems to feasting on insects to a family expedition in Africa, Outdoor Channel is chock-full of exhilarating outdoor programming throughout the week of May 16–22.
Monday night programming continues to put four on the floor with back-to-back-to-back-to-back episodes of Duck Dynasty. First, the Robertsons throw a redneck shindig to celebrate Duck Commander’s 40th anniversary. Next, Willie Robertson decides to partake of the grape by purchasing a vineyard – without seeing it first. Then, while duck hunting, the guys stumble across a beehive dripping with wild honey, which they consider to be nature’s most prized succulent treasure. Finally, when Willie finds out his daughter, Sadie has a new boyfriend, he decides to get to know the kid, while instilling some fatherly fear.
On Wednesday, the competitors in Top Shot throw knives at a target while balancing themselves over a mud pit and then move to slingshots in the elimination round. Next, in Shootout Lane, Jerry, Lena, and Kay Miculek embark on a survival course complete with fried grubs, also known as edible insects, while Brock Afentul spends the day at home in paradise.
Then, viewers will enjoy Friday Night at the Movies with the 1959 film, Warlock, where the town is plagued by a gang of thugs, causing the townspeople to hire Clay Blaisdell, a notorious gunman to act as marshal. Next, in the second of three elimination rounds in the Shell Rotella Challenge Cup on Major League Fishing, 10 anglers continue competing in Lake County, Florida, with only four anglers moving forward. Closing out the week is Archer’s Choice with Ralph & Vicki with the couple heading to Africa for the first time in 20 years, but this time they bring their son, RJ.
