Spike TV Teams With Lloyd's Of London To Offer $10M Prize To Prove Bigfoot Exists
New Competitive Reality Show Features Various Teams of Explorers on a Quest to Answer the Question of Whether Bigfoot Truly Lives
NEW YORK, Oct. 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Spike TV is raising the stakes in the endless quest to discover the truth about the legendary creature known as Bigfoot, the seemingly mythical being that roams forests of the world, avoiding mankind. The network is announcing a new one-hour reality show, "10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty," featuring ambitious teams of explorers on a brazen exhibition to unearth real evidence of Bigfoot's existence. The $10 million in cash, underwritten by Lloyd's of London, would be the largest cash prize in television history.
"10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty" is produced by Charlie Corwin's Original Media ("Swamp People," "Ink Master") with Corwin, Michael Riley and Emmy® Award-winner Jon Kroll ("The Amazing Race," "Big Brother") as Executive Producers. Spike TV has ordered 10 one-hour episodes.
The network has already begun casting contestants for "10 Million Dollar Bigfoot Bounty," which will feature scientists, zoologists, seasoned trackers, and actual Bigfoot hunters who all believe in the infamous creature's existence. The teams will be faced with the daunting task of proving to a group of experts that Bigfoot, the hairy ape-like sasquatch, exists with the irrefutable evidence. The winner will be the first team to secure proof – and win the unprecedented $10 million bounty.
Each episode will follow the different teams as they ply their extensive research and presumed knowledge of the legendary creature, often battling nature's inhospitable conditions.
The series will be shot in various locations throughout the country.
Sharon Levy is Spike TV's Executive Vice President, Original Series, Tim Duffy is Senior Vice President of Original Series for Spike TV, and Chris Rantamaki and Justin Lacob serve as the network's Executive in Charge of Production.
Show updates will become available at bigfoot.spike.com.

Bigfoot..alien..All the same thing..
ReplyDeletei have concrete evidence that bigfoot does exist i am a avid bigfoot hunter with no kill policy me and a group of others go out all the time
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely disgusting. I don't understand why we can't leave them alone. I know many people are skeptics, (I used to be one) I would rather keep it this way than see a big guy in the zoo. I have no problem being one of the few believers, blessed enough to know of their existence. They stay out of our way...I want to petition against this program. Ugh...my heart hurts just thinking about someone hurting a big guy..we are so incredibly selfish.
ReplyDeleteIm with you Sara, cant we just leave them alone. The deep woods is there land and we should stay out. And who would blame them if they tried to protect the small territory we hav'nt already ruined.

ReplyDeleteIf you want to shoot something, look for gang bangers and perverts! You should be prosecuted for murder if you kill something you know nothing about! If in fact they exist, they have the common sense to leave you alone - grow a brain and leave them alone!!!!!!!!!! The human race is growing sicker by the day and so is your programing. Is your motto "Anything for Money?"
ReplyDeleteCouldn't handle the comment regarding Guy Edwards? Really....maybe because he is a scammer and will lead the brain dead anywhere for money! Too bad television has gotten so degraded. I wonder what he could have accomplished with real ambition and hard work for the good of the masses. As it is, what he is doing is just a sick joke. And there are so many sick people, unfortunately he makes money at it.
ReplyDeleteWhat comment? Did I miss something?
