Are All These Monster Hunting Shows Helping or Hurting Cryptozoology?


Whether it's Finding Bigfoot, Alaska Monsters, or Monsters Underground, television networks have realized there's money to be made in the search for cryptids. But do these shows do more harm than good when it comes to the subject? SA McNally of visitcryptoville.com weighs in with their opinion on the subject:

Cryptozoology lovers are no doubt enjoying all the latest TV shows delving into the mysteries of monsters from all parts of the United States. Bigfoot, Swamp Beast, Saber Wolves and all the rest are fair game to these intrepid investigators. But is any of it real?

Like many of you I’ve been enjoying the latest rash of TV programs about the cryptids we love to think about. We have Destination America channel’s Mountain Monsters, Swamp Monsters, Alaska Monsters and the very popular Cryptid: Swamp Beast over on History Channel.

I’d like to share with you my thoughts about these shows and my perceived problems with them, then get into whether they help or hurt the cause for serious investigation into these creatures.

    2. Alaska monster hunters should of never even been on the boob tube in the first place. I can't even watch that crap without wanting too throw a brick thru the screen. But then that will cost me dough in which I don't have any extra of just lying around. That show makes the jerry springer show look like great t.v. or emmy possible. The F-ing worst is this trap builder dude. He such a bad actor and should be beaten down when he is seen in public. The dude with the bear claw through his beard is a complete jack-ass. And what is there to say about the dude known as little bear. looks like he got his Halloween costume off of the barber shop floor. If he's part indian then I have a pet bigfoot chained in my yard. Please for the love of GOD, freedom, beautiful breasts, muscle cars, French fries, and ice cream never show that puke fest again!

  6. Don't you agree the truth, if only a pinch, must season every falsehood, or the palate fn rebels? And mustn't the novice chef be mindful not to ladle out his concoction by the unseasoned fn ton, lest he perfect his art, he lose his clientele?

  8. Teacher: What does your daddy do for fun at home when he's not working ?

    Kid : He looks up Bigfoot stuff.

    Teacher: Oh.

    Kid : He posts about it on a bunch of different websites and he also watches Bigfoot shows and has some books about it.

    Teacher: So he's a footer ?

    Kid : No, he says he's not like those idiots cuz he's a skeptic.

    Teacher: Sure he is.. LOL

    Kid: Mommy says he's an asshole...(giggles)

    3. Again sorry, I'm not following. Skeptics don't read/post/watch tv/own books? How does one then become skeptical?

    4. You simpletons that post about Bigfoot on JREF are not skeptics. Think about this, there are only about 10-15 morons on the whole planet that post regularly about Bigfoot while simultaneously claiming to be a Bigfoot skeptic. That's not how normal, well adjusted adults roll, adults usually have no interest in what they consider mythical creatures. Your real Bigfoot skeptics, who actually equate Bigfoot to fairies, leprechauns, Santa Claus etc. would never waste their time posting or thinking about Bigfoot.

      I've even seen posters on JREF who post on other threads question why the JREF footers are allowed to post about Bigfoot on JREF.

    6. Here's a tip: try using comedy when writing a joke.

      You're where the not normal or well adjusted adults part comes in.
