Hey ... I am thinking about calling the ( DISCOVERY/TRAVEL Channels & FOX media and try to get a producer to produce a new reality show ...
On ... Bigfoot Independent Expedition Teams.

Take the 5 top Exp Teams in the USA


Take the media into the woods with you ... and let them do there job as you do yours.

The winner will receive $$$$$$$

Feedback please.

Thank you.

J D MEGA HEY

Please post the contract agreements after you've got everything ironed out.

who gets voted off first and what disgusting challlenges where there be. maybe we could tell bigfoot crap from bear crap and other animal crap by taste testing the crap.Also no one gets to fall in love with any animals as this is illegal in most states and territories. do we get to use the sure fire pan served metods to find bigfoot or do we have to use the primative methods that have been in use up to the recent posting of a shure fire bigfoot discovery method.How much is the prize and no nude fat men running around.

Interesting concept Jonnie. But please, no more "Survivor" type crap :rolleyes: I am so sick of seeing rehashes and "new twists" on this same old tired format. Someday I hope all these "contest" reality shows and their creators would just spontaneously explode into flames and rid the world of the tedium.



But I would watch a show about teams in the wilderness tracking a creature with the media in tow. It doesn't have to be cheesy to be interesting.

Just my humble view on life.

Will do FISHBONE 35.

Thank you for your post.

Thank You for your humble view.

I see your from O hi O.

johnnieb, what state or states would your propsed trips be in? what would happen if there was any evidence(body) found, who would get paid? would u go to the feild also? what is your expertise? have u ever actively searched for our big hairy freind? what months would the trip be in? how long would the teams(months?)search? who would be in charge of the groups? what equipment would they use? who would provide it? how would u pick who goes? what expertise are u looking for in the team members? i have seen some of your postings, u seem to be ridiculed on this forum, why? please forgive my forwardness, just a question, take no offense, please. good luck,sir.

Will it be catered, like filming of "survivor"?
BSF

Hmm, groups of people going out into the forest with cameras hoping to bag a bigfoot and perhaps get rich off the find...that show sounds familiar. Oh yeah, its called the "What We've Been Doing for the Last Several Decades Show"

No winners so far, but stay tuned.

A bigfoot reality show? What a concept!?! Someone should jump on this one!

Let's do this...

Teams should be made up of:

1 Skeptic
1 Hoaxer
1 Researcher/Investigator
1 Member Of The Media
1 Member Of The Scientific Community
1 Actual Person Who Has Had A Sighting

and...

Watch the fur fly...and I don't mean the Bigfoot's!
(Hair for the Politically Correct.)

Bring it on!

Gotta have someone w/ good tracking skills in there too!

You know, this might be an effective idea. Two teams, in one area, over the course of a whole season... A small TV budget could easily cover most of the equipment, including some pretty high tech night, video, and audio gear.

Have it where no one gets voted off, but instead, at the end of the season, the winning team is decided by who has found the most evidence.

Could be very cool!

-Sarge

hmm... I would watch it...perhaps, but only on three conditions.

1- Absolutely NO nostril shots :yuck:

2- They don't make a mockery of bigfoot research (uh-huh)

3- Captain Yanko doesn't get one red cent

...And a Tracker - good idea! There could be so many ways of doing this
entire project.

And yes, no blasting the actual Sasquatch phenomena. But it would show
the audience what goes on between all involved. It hasn't exactly been
pretty at times in the past.

There are so many that know nothing of the actual research being done.

Sky's the limit!

I think each team would also benefit from having a para with them as well.

Here you have a team of dedicated researchers, then you have the Para, and it would be obvious that the researchers dont even take him or her seriously.

Answer to Ouestions

1) What ever state bigfoot may be in.
2) When evidence of a bigfoot is found or pictures are taken
what ever money is to be made is your's--- all I want is a small %

3) I will not go out in the field. The only thing of my that will be going out in the field is my ( MEGA SOUNDBLASTER CD.)

4) My CD was tested in the early 70's
And it worked once I'm in hopes it will work again. That's why I need men like you to take the CD out into the woods.

5 & 6 ) Who ever has the equipment will be in charge.

7) No offense taken When I first came on to this site I think I was a little to gun ho ------

Thank you for your Question

Thank You ............................ John D MegaHey

O HI O

On this Exp you don't need a tracker,bigfoot will come to you.

Hey I would like to hear some of your ways on this ( Project. )

Maybe we can hook up and talk & share some ideas !

John D MegaHey

answer to question ( NO )

Thank You

Wrong; I don't want to bag a Bigfoot but, I would like to make some money !

It's been several decades but, with every decade we're getting closer.

Hey

We're looking for a few Bigfoot men
Please think about jumping on my Band Wagon @ www.download.com/jcd

How about we film a team co-headed by Bipto and Voldemort. Now thats entertainment!

Great idea Johnnie B !!

[Answer to Ouestions

1) What ever state bigfoot may be in.....
Jonnie B]

How about you let the teams decide where should they look for Patty and family.... I think this is a very original idea for a reality show. Hope you can get the support and funding needed for this project.

Hey !

Right ! ... I think the teams should decide ... Where the hunt should begin ...

Thank you for your support on the replie.

Remember you can be part of this ... Keep the idea's coming !

Thank You. J D MegaHey

I'm sorry guys, but the thought of a 'reality' TV show horrifies me.

We should be actinging professionally and scientifically, not trying to get media coverage ant any cost and being made to look stupid (which is after all the whole point of reality TV).

Perhaps this is why the scientists of Flores were taken seriously - I don' think any of them got voted off the Island before they submitted their papers.

Well I respect your way of thinking Paul1968UK , but I believe that if this show is set correctly it could bring more interest on the issue and who knows more serious funding for research on this topic. Actually I see the show as a disguised research project if there are clear guidelines and rules established so no false/hoax evidence will be permited as well as no acting or special props are used and keep it very real to the specified objectives, I don't see it as a negative issue. I have been very critical in the past of where ussually the Bigfoot issue is discussed, cause as you Paul1968UK I believe sometimes people even ridiculize the topic just because of the type of forum where it was presented (ex. Paranormal Expos, UFO Expos, etc that have nothing to do with Bigfoot).

The thing is that more exposure to the topic (scientifically oriented) is necessary and if this show is well thought out and well "directed and controlled" as having inflexible and clear rules on data collection/ analysis, witness interviewing/ reporting, and conclusive evidence I see no harm on bringing more attention to the Bigfoot issue. You see the skeptics would not believe and most probably ridiculize this issue until a Bigfoot is caught. Being in a reality show or a Discovery/National Geographic show is indiferent for them (one caught preferible alive... or dead... by the way Jonnhie B should think about this point, I know we all will love that somebody will capture a bigfoot alive but you know how fast and elusive they can be and since money will probably be involved some of the participants might consider just shooting one on site; since it will be a televised show you should think about sensitivities of viewers if someone happens to kill one even in self defense, so that could be an issue to work before any other, dead or alive (Safety for Patty or for the participants)? That is a though one...)

Anyway I do believe that Johnnie B is trying to produce a scientifically oriented show (even if it is a reality show), actually that is way I believe this idea is so original, if I only had the money and contacts I would gladdly sponsor him, but hey sorry Johnnie B don't have any so I can only support your idea in spirit. Good luck and hope you keep us posted on how the project is developing....

Jorgsor

So, it's come to this? And it ain't even catered?

Group immunity challenge....survive a screaming bluff charge without anyone's heart stopping. Reward....not losing another NV device and receive a MRE of your choice. Yum.

Hey sounds like fun doesn't it??
So I see Cheeseyeti is already sold on the idea... is anybody else planning to compete in the show??


I would if my Patty :willies: (wife) would let me...

Well still is a great idea I think and hope to see some of our forum members competing for the first prize.. not being killed by other desperate and greedy contestant !!

On that thought, Johnnie B one more idea, contestants should use only tranquilizer rifles (for Rinos, Elephants and Yetti of course), but just for the safety concerns of everybody involved in the project you should avoid use firearms if possible....

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

I don't think I can handle another, so called, reality show. There is nothing real about any of those idiotic shows. And, if the 'Bigfoot Reality' were to get off the ground, the production company would try to turn it into something stupid. Like having some brainless wit running around in a 'Sasquatch' suit. Then at the end of the show they'd pull up the guy and say something like, "Here's Bigfoot! Sorry folks, but there is no such thing as bigfoot." :doh:

My 2 cents.

Invariably the fool in the costume would get shot due to some blunder, resulting in a nation-wide ban of bigfoot expeditions.

I for one would be interested in participating in something like this. I do wonder what kind of negative attention this might bring to the community.

shamless plug

Yeaph!! many people think that exactly as soon as they hear "reality show"



Respect that thought, but I think this so wrongly labeled "reality show" is not what you think or perceived as the common "reality show".





You know that depends on how the show is step up, I had the opportunity to exchange opinions a little more in depth with Johnie B and it seemed to me that he had a great idea and maybe the "reality show" tittle might give some wrong impressions of what he is trying to achieve.

To my understanding the whole idea still is being developed and the exact details of the show have not being totally finished, but in general terms what Johnnie B wanted to create was a scientific oriented expedition/contest that would place several teams in different locations hunting for Bigfoot. Now the important issue here is that strick guidelines will be imposed on how to conduct the search, collecting and presenting evidence; and I understood that any person or group caught trying to hoax or cheat either in evidences physical or digitally (photos/video) would automatically be disqualified. Since members of the show (auditors for each team and cameraman from the show) would be present at all time with the contestants they will also help control any attempt of hoaxing.

The way I see this project is positive as long as clear rules are set and enforced upon the contestants by the producers of the show. This could bring more attention to the BF issue, more enthusiasts and maybe more funding for other projects relating to BF.

For many Bigfooters that are highly reserved with their info and findings the idea of the show might sound bad or even threatening in many ways to their ongoing highly secret investigations... For others it would help them generate more interest and maybe get more people involved in their quest (can be positive or negative depending). The only way I can assure anybody the show would be extremely negative would be if the show actually turn out to be a scripted show (scripted dialogues, events and results), with fabricated evidences, false reports, drama filled characters; in other words a typical reality show format.

Again by talking to Johnnie B the impression I got is that this project has no intention of being scripted to the contrary it will be absolutely no tolerant to hoaxes or other type of improper behavoir that would undermine the intendend goal: catch Sas. A common methodology and protocols would be established and the focus on the show would be set as a scientific rather than a paranormal expedition. Now that is a great idea!!!!

My two cents, wait a minute I think by now is close to a quarter...

My previous post was edited for spelling errors. Go figure!! :doh:
