4/5 A Pretty Good Series, Despite Some Flaws...
  by Feelah the tigress
The Monsterquest series follows a team of researchers as they try to gather evidence on monster myths and urban legends. Overall, it's a pretty decent and entertaining show. I really think they did a good job of using scientific techniques to try to test these legends. No psychics channeling the spirits here. Unlike some other shows on this topic, the team actually makes an effort to be appropriately skeptical without resorting to having a "token skeptic" talk for five minutes then leave. They also do a good job of using more believable methods than just eye-witnesses, such as hair analysis and DNA testing.

As much as I love this series, unfortunately, it has some flaws. First of all, they never come to any real conclusion in their episodes. I understand that you can't really prove that Bigfoot doesn't exist but some of the episodes do a really bad job of providing closure. One of my other complaints is lack of variety. How many types of Bigfoot are there, anyway?! My last complaint though is that this series seems to be about ready to jump the shark (or jump the Megaladon), so to speak. I've just noticed that episode quality seem to be degenerating as time goes on. The giant rat episode stands out in my mind as being particularly bad. I mean, they resort to interviewing homeless people and calling a domestic/wild rat hybrid a "big find". Why would the offspring of a domestic rat and a wild rat be anything special to get excited about?! It's not like they found a 5-foot tall rat or anything.

Strangely though, among the bad episodes, they still manage to have some that are pretty decent and interesting. Overall, I'd recommend the series just for it's entertainment value, just don't expect them to catch Bigfoot in a net or anything.

4/5 NIce Set Except
  by K. Berthold (Texas)
This is one of my favorite shows. This first season is defintly the best out of them all. And this steelbook case is nice, the only problem is the dvd's are so hard to get out. I almost broke the discs trying to get them out of this case I had to use pliers to get the dvd out, otherwise the disc would of broke. So other than that this set is good

3/5 Not enough variety
  by MTL (San Francisco, CA USA)
I have always enjoyed watching shows that dealt with cryptozoology and the unexlpained. I purchased two episodes of MonsterQuest season two on PSN (giant killer snakes and giant octopus) and found it enjoyable to watch with good production value. I bought the box set of MonsterQuest season 1&2 and I'm disappointed with season one. The show does a good job of using modern science to prove and/or disprove the "monster" of myth and stories. The show uses CG and reenactments to tell the stories of eye witnesses. Narration and the overall presentation of the shows were good, unfortunately most of the "monsters" from season one were uninteresting. Five of the episodes were about bigfoot from different continents. Two were about mutant dogs and black mountain lions which I didn't find interesting at all. Unlike in the '90s, shows like this are rare in today's TV programming. MonsterQuest season one showed potential but fell short of being entertaining due to the lack quality "monsters".
