If you thought Bigfoot hunters had carved out their goofy TV niche with the program Finding Bigfoot, 10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty has it beat by a mile with its level of absurdity. Kudos to the show's producers for coming with the silliest possible format. It clearly shows there is production money to be wasted in the entertainment industry.
Watching the first episode was painful. If this show survives far into its initial season, I will be sadly surprised. It is a badly done mash-up of Amazing Race, Big Brother, and Survivor with an unintended heavy dose of the Joe Schmo Show. The participants are a motley collection, ranging from a Ken and Barbie-like couple, to a badly acted apparent psychotic who claims to have personally murdered a juvenile Bigfoot.
Each team's matching outfits and contrived personae make them into clowns tramping and stumbling through the woods. If nearly any of them had to actually survive in the wilderness, they wouldn't last long before having to be rescued or coming to an unfortunate end.
