Révélations paranormales

I've only seen a couple of episodes but so far I am very impressed with this show hosted by Jennifer Marshall. What an impressive resume. A true renaissance woman. Anyway, I appreciate the level-headed approach to the sometimes whackadoodle conspiracy theories and histrionic speculation that plague most of these programs. She uncovers the true story behind the urban myths that gullible birdbrains cling to. It was a pleasure to see some burst bubbles of those whose whole reason for being centers on the existence of Bigfoot, for example. But she is kind and polite, if no-nonsense. I will definitely be looking at more episodes. I hope she keeps up the good work. Would love to see her partner up with Josh Gates.

I enjoy this show. It fills a void in the numerous shows exploring various paranormal, UFO and cryptid subjects. With the level headed curiosity, skepticism and investigative skills, all of which the host, Jennifer Marshall, posesses. Each episode is well executed.

My only problem with the show is the limited number of episodes, considering the many individual subjects that fall within its parameters. There should be several shows dedicated to a single subject. The limitations inherent in each show make the subject seem crammed into a single show.

All in all, I gave this show a 10. Enjoy it.

Jennifer Marshall seems very objective. She asks good questions and doesn't just accept everything. Some of the past series like this seem to abhor skepticism over enthusiastic acceptance of anything with shock value. Her measured approach is refreshing.

I was hoping this series would provide new information, with facts and science behind each episode, otherwise, there really is no point to dredging up the same stories we've seen and read about for years. I don't really expect them to "solve" each mystery, or that would be a headline. However, the episode on the Salem witches had me disappointed. There was some history that was never dealt with, namely Cotton Mather. He was a prominent figure and had great influence on the Salem trials and yet, there was no mention of him at all. This now leads me to bring every episode into question as to how carefully or in depth is the provided information.

Not only jumped it, rocketed over the cattle-mutilated mystery shark-shaped apparition in a top secret military paranormal ghost time-traveling alien spacecraft.

Season one was an intelligent revisit to the kinds of "mysteries" that have kept Ancient Aliens on the air for eighteen seasons. The host would visit these "mysteries" and debunk them through a combination of common sense and logical reasoning. It was intelligent.

Intelligence is in short supply these days and this show used up its allotment, so late in Season one and now in Season two the show started treating the audience with contempt by presenting as fact the standard "mystery" tripe: baseless claims, wishful thinking, honest mistakes, and the usual gang of say-anything-for-a-buck pseudo-experts with made up qualifications the producers of these kinds of shows have on speed dial.

Eight stars for season one up until the final few episodes where they started pairing the once credible Jennifer with a deluded believer in whatever they were investigating. No stars for season two, which is an embarrassingly forced cartoony rehash of Ancient Alien Skinwalker Ranch Ghost Adventure Scooby Doo. The average is four stars, so, four stars.
