River Monsters

I love this show. Jeremy Wade is an absolute monster at catching river monsters! I like it so much my brother and I made a spoof of it, of us catching our own River Monster. Great Great Show love it.

I could care less about fish, but Jeremy Wade is 100% legit. He is entertaining and intriguing and the locales are exotic and beautiful. He also hosts two other shows which are just as good: Mysteries of the Deep and Dark Waters.

... this is the show to watch.

An enthusiastic and entertaining presenter draws you in and you're hooked (sorry!).

You will quickly understand what it is to engage in this sport/hobby and why some estimated 2.9m people do so every week.

This is a great fishing show apart from the overdramatization, which for me is a major negative.

Some drama scenes are annoying and plain unbelievable. The plot of every episode starts with a mystery man-eating monster but in the end there is no monster (duh) except for some seriously big fish. I guess this helps attracts non-fishermen to a show that would otherwise attract mostly fishermen.

On a positive note, the host is a good fisherman with excellent knowledge of the fish he targets and the ecosystems they live in. This portion of the show is by itself highly educational and enjoyable to watch.

I'm a woman of 55 years old, this show was detrimental with my relationship with my son. He is now 28 years old. This show is more than just a fishing show. It stands the detriment of time. Moms if you want to spend time with your young sons, dads that go for you too. This is a best show to do it. It's an adventure in learning experience like no other show.
