“Who is Autumn anyway?”

You must have not googled “Autumn Williams” very hard.

cutrer says: “Well, that’s another hour of my life I’ll never have back. This series is horrible, after what Autumn said last week, it seems they use a lot of false representation to get people on the show.” I agree 100% The bigfoot episode was the worst so far.

Beef liver, bacon, & rabbit as bait? What’s that all about?? From the reports & documentaries I’ve watched, & read on other sites & received on my own site. I’d say better baits would be fish, berries, & acorns.

Who is Autumn anyway. I googled her name & came up completely empty. Even I can be googled.

Besides what others have said already, I must add my little say. Boston Rob is an idiot, and in all likelyhood Mothmen* exist. I personally hold on to the theory that they are some gigantic undiscovered owl species.

*Mothman, Owlman, Black Bird of Chernobyl, etc.

This sci-fi thing gave me hope for a serious look at crypto-stuff, but so far, I have been very unimpressed. It smacks of Animal Planet’s Animal X which drove me crazy.

Theatrical shows going down the road to cryptozoology, while they get crypto stuff out there, do not give it any credibility when their skeptic is a reject from Survivor, their believer is completely convinced every time, the “scientist” does less objective looking than the believer, and the forensic takes everything at face value.

The bigfoot episode about did me in, with them making noises for a joke. All the filming and supposed investigation and they devoted screen time to two of the team “pranking” the guides.

Give me a break.

Gerry, no problem. I just condensed and paraphrased, not wanting to give the full text of the entries there. Mr. Goerman, I would also like to thank you for your efforts in this field. By the way, could you educate us on the correct pronunciation of your family name?

Ceroill, thanks for the information. It’s much appreciated. I still can’t get over how familiar she looks though. She must have a doppleganger out there somewhere.

Thanks Loren, for saying all the things that I would have said, thus saving me an afternoon’s writing. as usual, sensational television missed the point. The only interesting thing in this program was the view of the TNT area today, which has overgrown over the years. Too bad the producers didn’t real the book before making the trip.

Deborah Dobrydney is the only asset to the show, maybe she’d like to come do some real research with us!

All the best,

The level of this show just keeps getting worse. These people are immature and idiotic. These people make Scooby Doo and the gang look like geniuses, or Nobel Prize winners. Come on, when are we going to see a GOOD show that investigates incidents with respect? Just because something is odd or unusual doesn’t mean it should immediately be written off. And if I were the residents of Point Plesant, I’d make life VERY nasty for Boston Rob if he ever showed up in town again after his smarmy remarks about how the town used Mothman to make money. Obviously, Rob is riding his 15 minutes of fame right into the ground. Possibly the show runs on a tight budget, and he was the only “celebrity” name they could get. I don’t hold out much hope that this show will improve, between this and the awful farce of the Bigfoot show last week, it doens’t look like it will get much better.
