Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
pronker pronker He's the generation of educated, mobile and tech-savvy individuals who open up parts of the planet to the armchair traveler, which at age 64, I am. So he researches and shows us clips or photos of the animals that were, and in the case of the Zanzibar leopard, still are. This is an engaging show that brings interest to the subject every time. The thrilling globetrotting aside, his personality emerges along with Zachary Hogan's and Jeremy Wade's to the forefront of conservationists portrayed as they show respect for the folks in lands who live marginal lives in tune with rivers, the ocean and the jungle. My hope is that the thylacine is discovered in Australia or Tasmania, and that is what drove me to watch the entire series. The methods showed me the dedication of troupers like Galante who monitor traps and motion cameras for the rest of us who will never tread a jungle path. We live in hope, as the saying goes, that a beast thought vanished turns up in a small population. If it could happen with the coelacanth, it can happen with other species. Way to go, Forrest!
jarvise-87184 Any credibility this moron might have had was completely blown when he started in Hudson, Florida, hunting for the aprocryphal black Florida panther. He purportedly was searching the *Florida Everglades,* which happen to be hundreds of miles south of where the program was filmed. He never got anywhere near the Everglades. What's more, he builds a fire under a kayak and cooks clams for dinner! Speaking of asses, too bad he didn't *ass-phyxiate.* ... or worse, cause a wildfire. What a waste of air time, money and viewers' attention. We have so much work to do to improve the lot of wildlife. Please send your Animal Planet yahoos somewhere else. Florida already had Florida Man.
lionsfan0975 I have to honestly say that each episode has me glued to my chair. Each episode goes so quick because it brings something new and is thoroughly entertaining. Not only am I entertained but I generally learn a thing or two from Forrest. Plus I believe what we see and hear can help people to believe in the chance of finding a supposed extinct species. I mean you never truly know and almost anything is possible. Each episode focuses on one particular animal that has been determined to be extinct. So they go there to research and look for the animal with the hopes of getting evidence that they exist still. If they are able to get evidence and they can provide funding to assist the animal to stay alive. Along the way Forrest will also find other animals that you can see and learn about too. Hopefully most people that watch will at least slightly change their ways for the betterment of the planet and our wonderful animals. It's sad to see how many living things have gone and will continue to go extinct due to humans.The show is fantastic and they all deserve kudos for a job well done.Forrest you are the man!! Keep it up!! Props to the crew and everyone behind the scenes too! You all make it happen! Lastly, thanks to Animal Planet for having this kind of programming!!!
rhardy-390-701341 Traveling to exotic, distance, areas of our globe, in search of animals, supposedly extinct, based on tales and claims of locals and regional hunters!Great catch lines and..not much else. The areas they visit are aesthetically pleasing, do not get me wrong, but the shows content smacks more of a UFO hunt. I had to listen to a friend who had became addicted to some show about a north eastern island, called Oak Island, that supposedly claimed to be the resting place of some fantastic treasure. Each time he would speak of it he would be less and less enthusiastic...and that is what the show has become for me.It implies AMAZING DISCOVERIES and is simply a minor zoological lesson, with travail footage and images of other local animals...yet no elusive *insert random extinct animal*.I find the show a big effort at running in circles. I would think that Discovery, moving away from the mental fluff shows it has been endorsing for the last 5 years, for concern of being the next channel with a slapstick nick name, much like The History Channels "The Hitler channel" tag that it distanced itself from through programming changes.I would rather watch a show about a region, that mentions a "sighted" extinct species as a byline, than an entire show focused on ...airIf you like "WHAT IF??" shows, sure, this would work for you. If you expect the previously determined extinct *Again insert random extinct animal name here* to be AMAZINGLY discovered in the content of this show, you will sorely disappointing
