Into the Unknown

"Into The Unknown" is a wonderful series! Narrator Cliff Simon does an extraordinary job educating viewers by simultaneously exploring folklore and legends, as well as the geography of the locations he visits. From the Louisiana bayou to California's infamous Mt. Shasta, you certainly dont want to miss these wild adventures into the wild and into legend.

Into the Unknown features a lot of fascinating stories and legends behind some of the most scenic and adventurous places you can travel to, and I think even people who aren't into the paranormal should enjoy going along on the journey, Cliff Simon is an outstanding host and I think the episodes are balanced and well-made.

Sure, I'm interested in paranormal and all kind of mysteries. I had big expectations for this show, but it didn't live up to them.

The host is shown to be something like little arrogant wanna be superhero. That Cliff Simon I know is NOT like that. Or maybe I haven't seen that side of him before? I don't know if that was intended but that is the impression I get from the show.

Then the music that has put on the footage. No. It just annoying. Maybe it should create some tension or excitement, but the problem is that I don't know if the sounds I hear are coming from the "soundtrack" or do they belong to the actual footage. This makes the show look and feel phony. And editing is bad. They used same waterfall footage in two different episodes. In Brown Mountain lights and in the Night Marchers. Why? Come on, that's underestimating the viewers.

If this wasn't hosted by Cliff Simon I would have stopped watching after one episode. This is my honest opinion. Did not meant to be rude. Just constructive criticism.

I don't know why shows like this get purchased it's based on pure rubbish and just mumbo jumbo BS.. Look at the science not make crap up based on hearsay. Provide some evidence and an scientific explanations and it might be worth watching.

Cliff is doing a great job but I wish he could stay a lot longer in these quest's to gather more information on the subjects and find solid evidence.
