Finding Bigfoot


Guest

Recommended Posts

The noise of an airborne helicopter is not that bad compared to the noise they typically make while stomping around in the forest, banging on trees, yelling at one another for talking while they are listening to squatch screams, or making their own screams. Not only that, with the FLIR technology being what it is, they ought to be able to spot a squatch from miles away without ever annoying them. After all, the squatches they are looking for seem to thrive on human activity, raves, baboons being brought into the forest, picnics, scouts, screaming, any kind of noise. If they're going to spring for the helicopter costs, which they always do each episode, they ought to use them for searching for the beasts instead of just for filming. That is, if the producers are actually serious about the search.

They have used a real good FLIR system and were quietly hidden inside, but they only produced some nice wildlife shots. I think they are very serious and would like nothing more than to find Bigfoot. The already high ratings would soar.

Next episode looks like it's going to be coming from my home state of Colorader.

Yippy, can't wait.

Better bring the wollies, it has been obnoxiously cold of late here.

I love the Australia show but it wouldn't be interesting if they stay in these places. They need to keep moving and exploring all the sightings as they have. What good would it be to waste show time sitting in the woods for days? Variety by going to different places is much better.

So you believe its more interesting to find nothing and hop to the next spot? That's odd. I happen to think that if they spend an extra 2 or 3 days in each spot and invested in some technology and new tactics, they'd have more evidence than they do now.

It's gotten so that it is so insulting to watch, it's the crazy quotes that make us laugh that manages to keep the minimal attention we give it.Funny thing, they always manage to hire helicopters to film them walking or driving ORV's, but they never seem to use them to search for the bigfeets!

I agree, the cutaway commentary is pretty useless. Bobo is actually a pretty smart guy, but having him on camera with that hat on and talking slow and basically repeating himself "I think he saw a squatch" makes him look dumb.

I don't know how useful a helicopter would be, but drone technology is progressing. Why not invest in a drone to survey multiple miles at a time?

So, Would it be so bad if they actually caught a Thermal hit? NV Hit.... Or ultimately found The Big guy... "If he's out there" Would that make the show pointless thereafter? I would accept a therm hit from a guy in a suit at this point.

Bobo and Raene were hidden inside the FLIR bus with Matt and Cliff zipping around on an electric ATV in the search area.

It's like a circus every time these guys go into the woods.

Bobo with his Red Rider BB gun? Disco Balls? etc

I think actual proof, (thermal, sighting, anything), would help the show. The route they are taking now is going to lead to a dead end. Not everyone is a vegetarian, some people like a little meat once in a while. I picture a Bigfoot laying on. his back grabbing his gut in laughter when Ranae does one of her calls.

Given that the vast majority of stuff on Animal Planet relates to animals known to exist, "Finding Bigfoot" would only be the beginning. Shoot, in two years It could be a quarter of their programming:

  • Following Bigfoot
  • Finding More Bigfoot
  • Bigfoot Doctor
  • Living With Bigfoot: The Habituators
  • An American Bigfoot Family
  • Big Brother Bigfoot
  • Survivor: Bigfoot

We'll work out the royalty details later. For now: you're welcome.

Good to see them consistant. Tonight's episode proved once again that speculation and generalization about speculation is the leading factor in concluding what IS and isn't accepted bigfoot behavior, and what IS and isn't a BF encounter.

The father/daughter site looked rather open & possibly residential. There were allot of roads in the background.... So... Whatever... The other 2 were questionable @ best. No wildlife or Bigfoot is going near that MM haircut. Bobo's so-called A-game sounds no different Than his B,C,D, game. Ranae still seems to be the only Sane party member. As far as the preview of next week's show... Sounds like a red fox "vixen scream" that they'll likely misidentify for Bigfoot. In other words..... More of the same.

Well, another wasted hour of my life, but at least I got some entertainment from listening to all the inappropriate, and borderline criminal, comments from the "team".....I'd like to meet the TV producer that thought using Girl Scouts as "bait" was a good idea.

And yet I keep watching <shakes head>
