The search for Bigfoot on the Travel Channel continues in December with a new series called Expedition Bigfoot.

According to reports, Bigfoot researcher Russell Acord is one of four hosts on the upcoming show. It will be an eight-episode series detailing the team’s field research. The team will go into central Oregon in search of the elusive cryptid taking viewers along for the ride. According to Acord, the show will take an in-depth look at their legitimate research including means and methods. The show is set to premiere on Sunday Night Dec. 8th on Travel Channel. Be sure to check your local listings for accurate time in your area. It’s always exciting to have a new series esp considering we haven’t had all that many serious efforts at series like this in the past. So it definitely seems worthy of a spot on your to watch list!

The new Bigfoot show will try and fill the void left by the departure of the hit series Finding Bigfoot. It should be interesting to see if the approach and format differ all that much from that of Finding Bigfoot. The new Expedition Bigfoot series should draw plenty of interest from the Bigfoot community. I mean we can never have too many TV shows about Bigfoot right?

Hopefully, the show is a success and we end up with more than just the one eight-episode season. Much like Finding Bigfoot, the new series will likely have its share of critics no matter what as most skeptics simply won’t give these types of shows a chance. But its certainly something that can be overcome as the previous series has proven.

If the new show can give viewers a fresh approach to Bigfoot then it certainly has a chance to make a splash. While it won’t be easy to satisfy what can be a fairly critical target audience anything new and innovative would certainly be a big step in the right direction. So set your DVR’s and let’s see what we get with the new Expedition Bigfoot series!
