Well fans, we promised you live-blogging from the Oregon Sasquatch Symposium (OSS) and we failed. OSS 2011 was in such a remote location we did not have internet signal. Many multiple apologies.
We will make it up to you in two ways. Yes, two ways, because we don't skimp when we want your forgiveness.
1. We will warm up our time machine, and post the events through out the week. Starting with each of the guest speakers presentations.
There is a place where you can find out was was left out of each episode of Finding Bigfoot. It's Cliff Barackman's official website.
After each episode of Finding Bigfoot Cliff Barackman does an excellent job with a commentary report and last week he provided a video interview debrief for the Florida Swamp Ape Episode.
Shortly after The Beatles sensational rise to global fame in 1963–1964 as the most famous quartet in pop culture, many individuals claimed they were almost members of the Beatles. The claims were so abundant that the press coined the term "Fifth Beatle".
With the Animal Planet's 1.3 million viewership success of Finding Bigfoot there were bound to be Fifth Beatles claiming to be overlooked during the process of creating the show. This brings us to Tim Fasano.
Tim Fasano, A Tampa Bay taxi driver, claims he was approached by Animal Planet last November and decided he had too much integrity. He begins by claiming after several emails and phone calls, "It became obvious to me that were looking for sensationalism. And that they wanted someone to almost phony it up."
He continues with what broke deal for him, "They wanted me to guarantee they were going to find evidence if they came here. The truth of the matter is, unless I was a hoaxer, as many of you think I am, I can't guarantee you'll find anything"
As you will notice in his video he did not have enough integrity to stay far away from Tom Biscardi. Biscardi is either a serial hoaxer or a guy who has had the misfortune of being hoaxed several times.
We will let you decide for yourself if Tim Fasano truly had the right stuff to educate and entertain the masses. Would 1.3 million viewers tune it to see Tim?
Looks like there is a new Finding Bigfoot Episode Guide Where you will be able to see new teaser videos and read Cliff's comments on each show.
Also It looks like Finding Bigfoot has finally hit pop culture. Tv Show, The Soup, a series on the cable channel E, that playfully collects and pokes fun at talk shows and reality series has added Finding Bigfoot to list of targets.
Rolling out in time for the premier of the TV show, Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot, Cliff Barackman has a new website that he will update after each episode. He will share behind the scenes anecdotes and reveal what was left on the cutting room floor.
From what we can tell this will be the best website to tune into after the show. The day after each episode airs, Cliff promises to give us "backstage" access to the show and cast members.
The site stands very well on its own as well. One of the other things we like is the updated Bigfoot Prints/Casting database. Most of the casts will be from Cliff's private collection. This part of the website, Cliff assures us will continue to grow. There are even a few castings from the Finding Bigfoot that will make it to site.
There are a few other gems on the site that we think are nice, including a way for Cliff to collect Bigfoot sightings and encounters. As long as there some form of compelling evidence Cliff will investigate each submission.
Looks like season 2 of Finding Bigfoot is a wrap and Cliff Barackman is enjoying the local fare back home in Portland, Oregon.
