Chasing Monsters

Cyril seems to be a genuine decent guy. I enjoy his perseverance, enthusiasm and realistic way of dealing with things. His linguistic talents are such a bonus for the audience. I rate his show just as good as River Monsters.

Don't mind other lower rating reviews here, Cyril is so much better host and definitely a better fisherman than River Monsters host. He is genuinely caring about fish and preservation of species. The fact that he kisses most of the the fish before letting it go tells a lot. To the person here in reviews who says "circle hook" is not designed to not harm the fish you are dead wrong pal, that's exactly what it's designed to do, do your homework!

This show is addicting to watch. Cyril gives just the right amount of information about the fish he catches throughout every episode (not too much to be dry and too boring, but not too little to where it seems you didn't learn anything about that fish). I also like the general layout of the episodes, the locations he travels to/the fact that he really embeds himself into the culture (the Amazon episodes were awesome, especially the one where he stayed in the chief's village), and Cyril has a very likeable personality that is easy to watch. I hope he'll continue to make more seasons!

Always enjoyed river monsters but annoyed by Jeremy Wade's over acting and sensationalism. This as good technically but Cyril adds much more to this than the UK equivalent
