Josh Gates aux frontières du réel

This isn't a bad show to say the least. The cast of the show needs some work, but I like when this show hunts down monsters whether they exist or not. However I did not like how they added in fake screams in one of the investigations, but I guess that was for entertainment purposes. Overall, it's a nice spin off to expedition unknown with josh as the big boss. I don't believe people know what they are talking about when they give this show a terrible review. Why does joshes entire crew have to be involved? I guess people don't know what a change of pace looks like.

The female investigator ruins the show for me. She does not add much to the show and gets scared every couple of minutes. Please replace her with someone (if there are any more episodes) with someone that does not come across as really annoying.

My husband and I enjoy this show very much. The only problem is that we can never hear what Jessica and Phil hear because the music is too loud! Can we do without the music so the environmental sounds are the same that Jessica and Phil hear? It would make it so much more realistic and believable and exciting.

Somehow this show returned for a second season, and somehow it's even worse. This show has nothing to do with it's parent show, Expedition Unknown, where you are constantly given history and interesting facts/culture about said location from likable host Josh Gates. This show rather decides to rip off fake-ass ghost shows with every single trope those shows have, but done 10x worse and obviously more fake. I gave the show a second chance after its hiatus, and yet somehow they learned nothing from the first season and have doubled down on horribly made fake setups. The two hosts still consist of a girl most famous for licking a PSP and a guy that's an Instagram bug fanatic, both of which seem to absolutely hate eachother. The girl seems to think even the slightest cricket sound is a supernatural homunculus waiting to pounce from the underbrush, and the guy just seems to want to go home and down a glass of hard liquor to forget about the episode he just had to film. Both of them pretend to be scared of stock sound effects that they edit in post production, talk to crazy people/actors about their experiences with the creature of the week, fumble around in uninteresting dark places for 15 minutes, and then just give up after finding a prop they put on-site and calling it so-called "evidence", opting instead to call up and bother Josh to give him an "update" when it's clear he could care less and just wants to go back to sleep. It's paint-by-numbers ghost show and an incredibly boring slog to get through, and if Josh didn't appear you'd have no idea that this was connected in any way to Expedition Unknown. The only sheer amount of enjoyment I get out of watching this show is the commercial in-between where a lonely man buys his seemingly paralyzed guinea pig a new hat for Christmas whilst proceeding to take a picture of him. After that commercial is taken off the air, I will have no reason to watch this show.

If you want entertaining fake ghost shows, please for the love of god watch anything else.

Does anyone believe that any of these shows like these are actual pure science? If you don't want something that is at least 50% entertainment then watch PBS. Shows like this are scripted and the drama is obviously staged, but who cares? I love this show because it's cheesy and fun. A number of reviewers on here give Jess a hard time for being so sure everything is paranormal. What I find stranger is how Phil could still be skeptical after all of the things they encounter. If all the things that happen to them while "investigating" were real then any rational human would be terrified. This is good fun entertainment. Enjoy it for what it is, not for what you want it to be.
