Did anyone watch it? It was about bigfoot. The skeptic had to wear a bigfoot suit to see if it was easy to fake videos and it was 90. He must have been very hot.

Did not get a chance to see it, but out of all the urban legends, "Big Foot" is the most feasible.

I missed it too but I'm with you on the likelyhood of Bigfoot being real and the most believable UL out there.

I saw it, and had to laugh at the guy thinking he could star in a fake Bigfoot video. He looked like a little kid in an ape suit running across that field. It was sooooo obvious that it was fake. No one would ever think that it was real. He did admit that faking a video was alot harder than he thought it would be. And it showed just how much work must be put into a fake video. All in all, it was a pretty good show, better than the one on Voodoo.
edited for grammar, sheesh!

I thought that costume was way too shaggy, and if someone was going to run across a grassy field i don't think they'd bother wearing those huge flopper feet.
These bigfoot expeditions are always a disappointment. I can't believe i still bother watching them.

I thought it was hilarious when the Skeptic fell ass over head trying to fake the footage!

Seems like a decent enough show, but who knows. It could very well end up like "Most Haunted"...

Never heard of this show, sounds intresting. I'm guessing its just on in America right now?

May be because it's new , but I haven't warmed up to this show yet. It seems to be just doing a quick look at the subject , then moving on after giving an opion. It just hasn't held my interest all the way through the show yet.

I watched part of the premiere episode on voodoo (boring), and part of the episode on Bigfoot. I thought it was so-so. It wasn't very serious or very interesting. They should really bring back Sightings, both the reruns and new episodes, that was a good paranormal show.

Sightings was a good show. I didnt think that the voodoo show was that bad. I know this Sunday they have a marathon on the most scariest places on earth I would love to be able to get in on that show.

Is this the show with ''boston rob'' on it ?

I have watched them all so far, and I have to say that its not the best show. It starts out with good intentions and just ends up looking lost. I was looking forward to the Mothman one last night, and yet again I came away with nothing more than I had already found out myself. I have to ask, but the Mothman has'nt been sighted in WV for a while, why go there trying to lure it by imitating its sounds??
On the flip side, anyone who is just getting into this kind of thing, or has a passing interest, it does give some good information, but IMO, if you want to dig deeper, either read up or go visit these places yourself.
Deborah Dobrydny (spelling) is certainly easy on the eyes though!

Here is a
LINKY so you can check out the official blog from last nights investigation.

Rob is funny. Last night he didnt believe in mothman but he was scared of the hotel because it was haunted and he believes in ghosts.

Im really not too convinced Rob is that much of a skeptic either, he just seems to be there more for comic relief than anything.
I wonder why they opted for a 'celebrity' skeptic, rather than an unknown person...?

Who that heck is the guy anyway(Rob the "skeptic"), did they just randomly grab some cab driver out of his hack in Boston and say "welcome to the team, buddy"....or has he actually done something that he would be recognizable for?
Oh, and the show's premise has merit, but it's done terribly, terribly bad and it's conclusions are nothing close to conclusions.........it looks like they(SciFi) are just trying to cash-in on the popularity of the paranormal and cryptids.....and they're not even doing it WELL.

Rob was a contestant on Survivor apparently, you can read about him
HEREI hope, I really hope he see's something in this series that scares the poop outta him, just to shut him up!

yeah it's a halfway decent show,rob just kills me because he's the"skeptic"on the show and everytime somebody tries to make a point,he cracks on them.he can say what he wants too,on the 1st episode where they were hunting bigfoot,he was scared sh**less out there in the dark!i really do like the guy,he's a natural host!

I watched bits and pieces, but what I did see, I liked. I'm not going to be biased like you guys and complain about who the people are. I'll just watch adn see how they act on the show....
I thought it was extremely interesting how the "scientific" guy asked the "possessed woman" a question about water or something, right after she whispered something about water in another guys ear.

I don't think anyone was really being biased about it, but there is a line where things just become annoying, and while Rob has put some valid points forward, he really was'nt doing too much for the credibility of this field by dressing up as Bigfoot and taking off down a hill. It did'nt take a rocket scientist to know he was going to land on his ass. As part of the team he works well, its just some of his comments I find a little off. I still think he was put into this as the comic relief moreso than a true skeptic.
and here is a picture of Deborah for you all to enjoy

move along...

well, Loren Coleman, author of 'Mothman and other Curious Encounters' (amongst countless others) posted this blog about the show, particularly the recently aired Mothman one, it makes for interesting reading. Check it out

the mothman episode was a waste of time i thought!the bigfoot episode was entertaining,all they did in this last episode was run back and forth from the woods,muesuem,and the town library!
