    We should be talking about the good evidence that they got instead of trying to undermine their evidence by changing the topic to how fake the show is. Make a better show if you don’t approve of how they do it. This forum has a really toxic feel to it. You didn’t burst my bubble by the way, just made me want to go back to ignoring the forums and not participate. I have no bubble nor anything else you can change, except to confirm the previous experience that this is a toxic place to post

    I don’t have any kind of inside track on show, just taking best guess. You are probably right. I will leave the criticism to others. Would rather spend my time creating than criticizing.

    Thinking the description of the show as being “staged” is the more accurate way to describe it rather than “scripted”. There’s no way around a certain amount of making it watchable by editing, by planning ahead what will be presented. But it in my average dude watching Bigfoot shows guy opinion is not scripted to the point of telling people what they will say. The situations are set up to keep our attention, the teams actions are real within a framework that is set up to be interesting. It is the best bigfoot show I have seen so far, If someone can make a better one, it is a free country, go for it!

    This is a bit off topic but was just reading fan page stuff for Expedition Bigfoot. Recently began to wonder if the cover up about bigfoot is because we don’t know how to fit them into the legal system as far as how they should be treated. If they are more human than previously thought, they would possibly have some rights to habitat undisturbed. It is not a new idea at all but I just never thought of it that way before. Our legal system of ownership has no way to accept a creature similar to homo sapiens sapiens but not one. Our legal system is set up only around humans as we know them, and anything else by definition is an animal. Well, with Sasquatch we have a being that just doesn’t fit the system, and might throw things into confusion and turmoil regarding land rights and ownership. Too avoid getting into the resulting mess, we (the government) find it easier to call them bears. Bears don’t have rights, some kind of alternate human creature might. So we have the internet trolls who make snarky negative comments on the Bigfoot Expedition Fanpage, still calling things bears that obviously are not.

    I have been watching and am interested to see what the results of analyzing the blood will be. As far as the scripting goes, it might be necessary in order to have the show at all, at least in the minds of the gate keepers. I like the creature footage, no PG film but…

    People should reject Donald Trump. Let’s see how this election goes. I hope he stops his constant lying on the big public stage and goes off somewhere else where he will not deceive so many who have good intentions.

    Telling someone not to talk about something is a sure way to make them speak up.

    Has anyone else experienced a silent sector in their surroundings? That is what I am hearing/ not hearing from the deeper woods this morning as I go out to my car. Heard the distant barking the last few days as if to announce me leaving the house. People in my family differ in their interpretation of the bark. When I sense the Sasquatch may be present once again although distant, it is a comforting feeling. As in not all the great woods have fallen to heavy equipment.

    Found it! The reference to wood knocking like I heard from camping one night at Loft Mountain Campground (1977?). Mr. Garrison is being driven around during the interview. He makes a couple different references to mysterious wood knocking, sawing wood sounds, a haunted cabin etc.
    Listen from starting point mark 1:59:43 to about 2:04:00 if you would. The transcript is supposed to contain the full text but we get more of a brief summary with a map on this particular interview. I find it interesting that there is a place named the “bear house”, and that the old park dump had been nearby. https://commons.lib.jmu.edu/snp/74/
    Considering keeping my own copy of this interview, it was difficult to track down, Found my way back and in the process of searching, came across some other interesting references to the lights, a mysterious dog, and who knows what else will be in these old stories. Stories of people who are now passed, who lived in Shenandoah National Park before being removed in the 1930’s. Bears got blamed for an awful lot of stuff.

    “N.L.: Well, I’d been scared to death to answer a thing like that.” That line came out of sequence when I put together two copied sections of the transcript. It ended up on the very bottom but belongs after the “D.S.: Yea.” line a ways up higher. Looks like a person gets two chances to edit and then can no longer edit a post. Tried to correct it but could not do another edit.

    https://commons.lib.jmu.edu/snp/49/ Page 21 through 23 Have some interesting (to me) stuff. In the transcript talk about something hollering at his dad and the reaction. Doesn’t sound like a bear to me. And Mrs. Lang then describes a similar encounter where people were chased. Sounds like familiar behavior from Sasquatch Chronicles episodes, the would have been about 1930 or earlier.
    D.S.: Did your daddy do much hunting?
    N.L.: Yea, he was a great hunter. That was mostly his hobby. Going in
    the mountain and hunting ginseng and sq~lrrel and things like that.
    Sometimes we’d get uneasy about him. He leave••be about dark before he ever come in••and see if anything ever happened to him, we
    didn’t know where he’d gone. He go over them Alaywood mountal. ns
    and everywhere hunting ginseng••by himself.
    D.S.: Umm••• anything could have happened.
    N.L.: Yes he would. I know. But I don’t think there was no bears around
    then but,
    D.S.: Oh, no, but he still could have tripped and fallen and broken a leg.
    N.L•• He said L.- ~~

    D.S.: Oh. Yea, there were a few bear then. Sure.
    N.L.: Yea. And then them other••them panther you know ••he said there were
    some of them back them days. He told me ••he wasn’t married then••
    he lived down in the hollow next to the coppermine with his grandmother•• I think his grandmother and his mother had gone to the mill
    ~ome corn ground for cornmill. Said he hear’d something
    hollar from up on the Haywood Mountain said Uncle got out
