Some of the shows can be explained like the Chupacabra, I have shot manged out coyotes that look just like that.. I live in the woods, and have seen 2 unexplainable things.. Not crazy or far out "not bigfoot" just unexplainable... Anyway, I Love the show, and big foot!!! Hook me up at that Snow Grove Lake cabin for a whole year!!! I don't need much of anything, a good camcorder, and a very few odds and end things... I can live off the land year around... I'll find it, and get SOME kinda proof for ya... If it, or anything else is around... Heck i'll even do any of the work ya want done to the cabin, inside or out for FREE... DREAM place for me to live for a lifetime, but a year would do I guess, no joke send me now :)
Though some are redundant to a certain extent, I watched all 13 episodes. Naturally, a few hold more interest than others. For example, "Giant Squid Found?" was absolutely fascinating. Attaching a camera to a 6 ft. squid, and seeing what the squid saw at 1000 ft. beneath the surface was amazing. There is a certain amount of interest generated, even though nothing was found. To some, the hunt is the most satisfying part of any adventure, with a plausible explanation only leading to a letdown. About half the episodes I would rate above average, and that provides 6 hours of entertaining quests, well worth the purchase price of less than $20.00. - MERK
This is a very good show for people interested in Cryptozology. Of course most of the show is very questionable, but if you are interested in such topics, it is the best and most well-documented TV series made so far. I find it very entertaining, and it is also worth seeing for both skeptics and believers. I consider myself a skeptic, most of the content in this show is pure fiction, but anyway, I feel the topic fascinating.
And those who have objections to this shows contains, simply don't see the show and let people take interest in what they want.
I hope there will be more seasons of this series!

I've seen most of the episodes, each searching for different cryptids. Each episode has promoters, detractors, and other scientists. Invariably the hair they analyze isn't the cryptid, the camera "traps" only startle known animals, and those actively searching for it supposedly get close but never quite encounter the "beast". The eyewitnesses claim the beasts come near them but they never get a good photo. Just once I'd like them to interview someone who sees the beast, chases it down, and tackles it while his buddy films it. The number of fuzzy photos, or photos where the creature steps out of the shot are too many to be real. I'll believe a couple of photos might be blurry, but darn near all of the photos and video leave the image up to an editor freehand drawing the outline of the beast on a color-reversal of the photo. This show could have been so much more. A better title might have been "Monster Quest: Yeah...Not this week."
I've watched just about every episode of this show, missing only two I believe, and I must say that, unlike the reviews I've read before, I give this show a high rating - not because of some inner belief in Bigfoot or crazed notion of reptile/human hybrids, but because of what the show offers - entertainment and the hope for an unknown world.
As a student of philosophy and mathematics, I can say one thing - On the occasion that I don't 'know-it-all' I'm quick to find it out, one way or the other. It's a safe assumption to make that if there's a new technology out there or a more efficient method of this or that, I'll be there to take it apart and figure it all out. . . but it is nice to think, if even for a fleeting moment, that there are some things that I cannot know by logic or formula. It's nice to believe that, though there's no empirical evidence for something, it may still exist.
This is what this show offers me, and perhaps to others. I spend a good portion of my day logically analyzing actions or speech, and I find relaxation difficult to attain, as soap operas or sitcoms become overdone or wacky... but here is a show that retains some measure of a scientific method, but seeks to find that which cannot be found. And while others may judge and make fun, I think that a show like MonsterQuest is a far better way to unwind and relax then watching something dug up from the primordial soup like 'Desperate Housewives' or 'MadTV.' In summation, it's nice to escape to an almost Lovecraftian level and entertain the idea that perhaps our inquiries are not perfect - perhaps we can't know everything - and perhaps, just maybe, there are some things that exist outside the realms of the Known world.
