I really like this show, because Jeremy Wade get's shit done. When I first heard about the program, I thought it was going to be sensationalized tripe like "Ghosthunters" or "Searching for Bigfoot", where they spend the whole hour screwing around to obtain some pathetic little shred of tape or film. Not this guy. Jeremy Wade gets into town, comes up with some hypotheses, and then goes out and catches all sorts of crazy stuff.

[–]unheimlichkeit 7 points8 points ago

I'm in total agreement with the OP, and I do really like the show, but it sometimes annoys me and it may or may not be Jeremy Wade's fall. Like that stock footage they have of him fishing - just his face and him reeling in- also the animation and how long the show actually takes to get through the interesting information and action...it's a little annoying. But, it's probably not his fault.

[–]Mikey_Mayhem 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Totally agree with you. This new season is way too over-produced (stock footage B.S.) They try to build up the mythology around what he's fishing for instead of focusing on the fishing itself. I hope they realize where they've gone wrong and go back to the formula that made people like the show in the first place.

[–]tldr_MakeStuffUp 0 points1 point ago

I've only seen the newer ones and felt they were way too drawn out. I might have to go see some of the older ones after hearing this.

[–]drakeg4 0 points1 point ago

I saw in one episode (in one of those little pop-up facts) that it was rare that the camera is rolling when the line catches something which would explain repeated clips of things like that.

[–]Mikey_Mayhem 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

But then they edit in stock footage/cut-aways when he's actually battling the fish. They have one of line getting taken out of the reel and another of his face looking excited that they've filmed beforehand that they edit in for no particular reason.

Yeah I agree, the show is about 50 minutes too long. Just fast-forward to the last ten minutes.

Yup, Jeremy Wade aka the best angler in the world get shit done on his show. I once stumbled upon a Paranormal State episode where the supposed medium is freaking out over a rolling flash flight. Shit cant be unseen.

According to Wade, you shouldn't piss in the Amazon because a small fish or something will jump up your urethra.

What's great about this show is they spend all episode building it up with classic melodramatic cable-style footage and at the end you're expecting some normal fish to ruin it all and he hauls up a OH GOD WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT THING ARE THOSE TEETH HOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIT

[–]tophatduck 6 points7 points ago

Then I believe you didn't see the episode where he jumped into a piranha infested river.

This show is fun. I gorged on it and watched the entire thing in two days. Which I haven't done to a show in AGES. Super interesting. And justifying my reason to kill the rivers and murder the fishies. They're all trying to eat me... ALL OF THEM.

Damn nature you scary!

...But seriously I love watching this show. The episode where he caught that freshwater ray was probably my favorite, but this one was super awesome too. The only question that comes to mind right now is this: How the fuck is he not afraid that thing is going to eat him as soon as he releases it?!

If I recall correctly, the Goliath Tigerfish had hit its head on a rock as he was bringing it in and was basically dying as he landed it.

He does look at those in one of the episodes. Just a side note for another fish he's catching. He explains the whole process of it going up people urethra's and stuff.

I came away with a similar vow after watching this show: there is no way I'm ever stepping foot in Africa.

The Congo River, especially, looks TERRIFYING. And I'm not just talking about the crazy fish. Literally just the shots of him standing next to that insane-looking water was enough to give me butterflies.

[–]MalHeartsNutmeg 0 points1 point ago

I found the truly crazy part to be where the local fisherman was fishing with a net in the Congo river.

Then when it got snagged, he jumped in

River Monsters. Animal Planet show about the guy pictured going to lots of crazy places and being an awesome fisherman. It will make you afraid of the water again. But it's worth checking out. Dude catches a GIGANTIC Stingray, 6 or 8 feet wide I think and a HUGE bull shark. It's on Netflix for sure, I actually just watched it.

Awesome edit: He also jumps into a piranha infested river in the Amazon.
