Expedition Bigfoot

I want to be objective and open-minded when it comes to Bigfoot/Sasquatch/Yeti, having studied Cryptozoology myself. I'm going to say that this series tries to add more of a "research" feel to it, but it fails on many fronts. I only watch it because of Dr. Mayor. I believe she is doing her best to stay the course of science. The survivalist strikes me as a man that has at least a center to him when it comes to what he's doing. By and large, true research and actual science is lacking. Too many quick conclusions based on spurious and anecdotal accounts. When hard "evidence" is found, the results are by and large inconclusive. I'm not sure if they are ghost-hunting or doing scientific research.

I don't understand why there's so many negative comments. Of all the Bigfoot shows I've watched, this one I think has been one of the best. They don't just go around whooping and hollering and banging on trees, they have real technology that they're using. Sometimes I question their tactics, but I know it is part of getting viewers to watch the show. Either way, I look forward to watching it every week.

Has compelling experts, credible sounding testimonies, and great methods for capturing evidence.

Problems: THE MUSIC! They play music over what the researchers are supposedly hearing during the investigation. Would love to hear what they're hearing without that stupid music.

They play through the evidence way too quickly for the viewer to judge for him or herself.

No repeat trial techniques. Some techniques seemed to produce results but they don't repeat as necessary for credibility.

We will never see a "Bigfoot" How do you never use the right equipment at the right time!

How do you use torches at night and not night vision cameras to record footage of creatures close to you?

First I need to say kudos to Zac (cameraman) who follows Russell into the creepiest places. You can clearly hear the hesitation in his voice, but he does it anyway. Yes he's getting paid, but no amount of money would get me to follow Russell. He always seems to find the weirdest and creepiest places. Braver than I would be. All that being said, there seems to be great comradeship between these two. I'd happily watch a programme with Russell and Zac.

What I like about this programme is there's a mixture of believers (Ronnie), sceptics (Russell) and only science will prove it attitude (Meriya) and Bryce who is at the helm, finding the locations and interviewing eye witnesses. I'd rather see a program that will try and find alternatives to what is out there, but when the unexplained happens and science has no answer, it gives a more authentic feel to the entire programme.

I've watched other programmes on Bigfoot, but for me, none come close to this one. If anyone can find them, I believe they will.

For too long the human race has believed they are superior and there can't possibly be any other entity out there. It would be naive to think, with the vast universe, that we are the only intelligent species living. I do believe that there are far more advanced, living beings out there and programmes like this that use science as one of their tools, are first class and can one day, unearth the truth regarding visitors to earth.
