Les is making "docufiction", right?


He can't possibly be serious about the Bigfoot BS?

I guess he is trying to approach it seriously. I just hope he wasn't pressured by producers, network to push this "Bigfoot" notion. The old grainy film from 1967 to me is staged. The "creature" walks exactly like a man. His walking, the way he moves his arms and looks back. It's just too fake looking. After all these "sightings" no one has ever found a dead one, bones, etc. Trees falling, a knocking on trees, fallen trees, etc don't convince me.

The bigfoot in the Gimlin-Patterson footage is a female, not a male.

Yeah, it has big tits and you can see the muscles moving in its leg. If that is a suit it looks hundreds of times better than the Chewbacca suit which was created 10 years after the Gimlin-Patterson footage. A suit with moveable musculature and milk sacks would be pretty hard to find at a costume store in 1967. I'm open minded about it but I think the majority of footage we see today is fake. The guy Les had on in the first series is living in a fantasy land and Finding Bigfoot isn't even worth talking about. If the species does exist I hope it is never found or captured...

No, it was a guy in the suit.

I'm pretty sure it's called a docu-fatten-the bank account!

The last two episodes have been pretty legit, and thankfully not a word about Bigfoot.
