The Catch Team

We're just two TV guys who think dating should be a lot more fun.

Creator, Executive Producer

Nick Cates

I believe in the value of two things: love and creativity. As a husband and veteran TV executive, I've been blessed to experience both. I've overseen specials and series for

E! Entertainment TV, BET and other networks. The Catch is our experiment with "Reverse Catfishing," turning the tables on meeting someone who (shocker) looks nothing like their dating profile. With The Catch, asking the right questions about who a person WAS can tell you a lot about who a person IS today.

Executive Producer

Anthony McLemore

Online dating can often feel like wild crap shoot. But taking that risk paid off for me when I met the woman of my dreams. I've also enjoyed a dream career, producing and directing on a variety of shows, such as "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills", "The Dr. Phil Show" and a special on Janet Jackson, which even won an Emmy. While each project was different in its own way, they all had one thing in common: personal stories. With The Catch we offer singles the chance to tell their stories, illustrated by their most personal photos and videos.
