Well, it appears “Bigfoot Bounty” ended and no signs of Bigfoot were found (surprise surprise). However, lots of crazy and misogyny ran throughout that show. I only watched the first three episodes before getting bored and giving it up, but if you want to read a summary of the whole show read
Don Prothero’s blog about it. You can also read
Alison Edwards wonderful episode-by-episode overview about the show.

They were totally invested in the hunt in a way the other teams weren’t, by which I mean they not only knew all the bullshit theories but they also were perfectly willing to put each stupid one of them to the test, not to mention mock, deride, use, and backstab as necessary to find their fantasy ape. Does that make them the best scientists? No , but I guess it does make them the paragon of Squatching. So congrats, Squatchers. These fine fellows are representing for the community. Be proud. Or nauseous.
That sums up this whole show concisely. Even though I believe Dr. Todd and Natalia made as much lemonade out of the lemon that this show was, I am glad its ratings were so low that it will not be returning for a second season.
