The show has proved extremely popular in the states. My understanding is that they're pushing to do some international investigations, possibly in the next season.

I think the popularity of the show will lead to a bigger budget with the result being more international expeditions.

The "decision making" by the 4 team members was terrible.

Most likely done on purpose to go hand in hand with what they found. There was both some good evidence and some obviously fake evidence but mostly with the fake evidence there came the bad decisions by the crew. I mean things like seeing something on thermal, stopping the filming to run after it in the forrest, make a lot of noise, and expect to catch an animal with 5 times more strength.

I bet a 7 or 8 foot Sasquatch with a massive stride length and powerful legs could do 100m through the thick forrest at a pace which could not be matched by any human alive. I bet fat little stocky Moneymaker couldn't do 100m on a clear flat athletics track in under 18 seconds.

Even if you manage to run right up to it and stand there what would it do to you anyway? It would see you running, making noise, feel threatened and rip your arms and legs off.

Monkeymaker is quite an amusing self proclaimed nickname for a guy leading a bigfoot finding expedition! I'm not sure if the nickname refers to the audience which he sure is making monkeys out of, his own entire team who regularly do make monkeys of themselves, that through his show he fully accepts he is literally making a monkey out of thin air, or that he is secretly making an actual monkey suit which he will reveal in an exciting series finale dressed up as unverified at a distance? The hilarious thing is if you drop the k from monkeymaker, you are left with moneymaker which is another oxymoron as every man, woman, and child knows there is no money to be made in looking for bigfoot as bigfoot cannot be found!

The fairies in my flower pot garden, the troll under the bridge down the road, and the bunyip swimming around in farmer Dan's dam, would be closer to finding a bigfoot than these monkeymakers!

Hey all,
having spent time with the crew while they where here was a different experiance. Got to learn how TV works lol. Meeting everyone was great, listening to passed tales and experiances. Really they make a lot of money for finding nothing and travel the world doing what they love. Having said that, I think selling out may have a little to do with it.
What is filmed isn't always what's presented lol. So that for me would be a battle in itself. Favorites I'd say would be Cliff and Renae, they seem so true. Cliff was a great inspiration and had so many tips for us from picture taking to casting, from memory he holds near the biggest collection of castings in the world. And Renae, well what a great honest down to earth person she was, to us anyway. Only person whom was a little hard to get time with was Matt but it didn't phase me. Bobo was okay but he was already caught up in a web of first nations people tradtions as he so loves to do.

Cheers
