This is essentially a copy of Mountain Monsters, walk 6 feet into the woods, find a footprint, build a trap and catch f*ck all, but with a big shortfall. I love Mountain because of the characters, you wont find yourself cheering for these guys like you did for Buck,Jeff,Trapper and co. Mountain is a fantastic mix of Scooby Doo and The A Team with a bit of Benny Hill thrown into a huge pot of nonsense, perfect for a laugh filled hour of escapism, Alaska Monsters follows the exact same formula but never pulls it off, it suffers from the same problem that afflicts an Elvis impersonator, they're not Elvis. That's not to say it's not a laugh, it's just that Mountain has completely cornered the market in lovable bearded nitwits stumbling around loosing shots off into the darkness. If you've never seen Mountain Monsters then this is worth a look, it will make you smile in the same way a bad horror movie does, but for Wild Bill fans it will leave you cold, I've watched the 1st 4 episodes and haven't shouted at the t.v once, never a good sign.
