I have to honestly say that each episode has me glued to my chair. Each episode goes so quick because it brings something new and is thoroughly entertaining. Not only am I entertained but I generally learn a thing or two from Forrest. Plus I believe what we see and hear can help people to believe in the chance of finding a supposed extinct species. I mean you never truly know and almost anything is possible.
Each episode focuses on one particular animal that has been determined to be extinct. So they go there to research and look for the animal with the hopes of getting evidence that they exist still. If they are able to get evidence and they can provide funding to assist the animal to stay alive. Along the way Forrest will also find other animals that you can see and learn about too.
Hopefully most people that watch will at least slightly change their ways for the betterment of the planet and our wonderful animals. It's sad to see how many living things have gone and will continue to go extinct due to humans.
The show is fantastic and they all deserve kudos for a job well done.
Forrest you are the man!! Keep it up!! Props to the crew and everyone behind the scenes too! You all make it happen! Lastly, thanks to Animal Planet for having this kind of programming!!!

Extinct or alive has everything a tv show needs. It's informative, educational, exciting, influential, and has a host with an undeniable passion for what he does. What sets this show apart from Bigfoot/Alien shows is that it generates results. Forest is a trained/educated biologist who does extensive research that in multiple instances leads him to rediscover a previously "extinct" animal. He isn't running around looking for something that was written on a 500 year old piece of paper by god knows who, or an oversized ape that has no scientific backing. He is looking for and finding REAL ANIMALS. This show is not only great to watch but it is great for modern day biology and conservation. It's a breath of fresh air among among all the trash currently on television. Keep doing what you do Forest.
Unlike one of the best drinking game shows on tv "Finding Bigfoot" this show actually goes out and searches for real animals that were known to science and lost to it presumably.
It is entertaining as well as honest without the need for made-up-drama though there is some drama but the pay-offs in education are worth it an Yes when the Tort was found as a Herpetologist and Conservationist myself I did feel that joy in my heart.

Seriously. I cannot get enough of your show. The amazing lengths you, your crew, and other scientists go to not give up on a species is incredible! I always want you to find the animal, everytime, but know it might not happen. Then I remember that even with you bringing the animal into the spotlight gives it hope that future generations of the animal and humans along with conservation can save a species. Thank you for all you do!! Can't wait fot more episodes.
