bigfoot episode- manufactured nonsense
Shows like this grate on your nerves. The anti-climactic climactic scenes, the swelling music and the music stings when absolutely nothing happens, shaky camera and quick editing to imply something is taking place when nothing is actually taking place (that nonsense when they were losing their minds at the heat signature, when it turned out to be the recording device they JUST set up), it all makes for a terrible show filled with manufactured tension where there isn't an ounce of it.
I only saw the bigfoot episodes so far, but if this is what to expect, it's garbage. Not only do they not do any legit research, it's all as silly as the notion that he's talking to a "Scientist," when, in fact, he's talking to a deranged middle school science teacher with bags full of bear crap and wolf hair. I doubt any rational people truly believe bigfoot exists, as none of the explanations why he's never been caught on camera make no sense. One guy is telling you he speaks a complex language no animal is capable of (of course you can FAKE those sounds), and that he's so smart he can outwit the cameras (which makes no sense...as bigfoot would need to necessarily be smarter THAN human), but somehow he's dumb enough to leave hair all over, crap in the woods, and be fooled by mating calls of wood knocking against wood.
Worse than the idea that any of these conspiracy theories are true is the fact that nothing interesting takes place in the show, yet they edit it and score it musically to make you think it's the most exciting thing ever. That's lame, and a show worth it's salt wouldn't need these lame tactics.
