Searching for Sasquatch (2021)
This entire series of mockumentaries are just silly.
I have to laugh at the reviews that claim Jason Kenzie is funny or has a good sense of humor. He is energetic, I'll concede that, but he has no wit at all. His humor is limited to lame, unfunny, immature quips made in response to comments from by people he is interviewing. It's like watching a smart aleck 12-year-old trying to be the class clown. And what is with his head? It's shaped like a semi-deflated volleyball, except bigger. Make that a basketball.
As for the Bigfoot stuff: they get all excited about "eye shine" and footprints, but that's about all, other than eyewitness accounts of experiences nobody ever manages to get on film. Nothing new here.
Searching for Sasquatch6: What Lurks in the Darkness (2022)
This guy is an unfunny clown with a weird head shape.
SPOILER ALERT (BUT NO SURPRISE): Nobody finds any proof of a Bigfoot.
Jason Kenzie seems to be making a living of sorts making these ridiculous Sasquatch (Bigfoot) mockumentaries and trying to pass them off as real. But it's just as well, as he doesn't seem to be suited for real work, with no noticeable talents or skills. Kenzie is certainly not good looking enough or normal looking enough to be in front of the camera, but he sure doesn't seem to realize this. Nor is Kenzie witty enough to be on camera interviewing people, but that doesn't stop this annoying clown from trying to make lame jokes while questioning his Bigfoot "experts". He does this a lot, laughing at his own lame quips. It's actually quite sad.
The only funny parts are with Robin, the very homely woman who "speaks" telepathically to Bigfoots all over the world. (She explains that telepathy is not limited by distance, you see.) She seems to be convinced she's for real but she is anything but convincing. Next funniest is the final nighttime "expedition" into the woods by several Bigfoot trackers and Kenzie, who always wears a leather jacket in an unsuccessful attempt to look manly. Though everybody make numerous claims to seeing Bigfoots on these "hunts", they all fail miserably to capture absolutely ANYTHING on camera, even the "eye shine", which they claim are everywhere. But they do a lot of excited talking, "Did you hear that?" "Did you see that?" Of course, everybody is so busy asking stupid questions and making a lot of noise that nobody can see or hear anything. And if you were going to go out at night Bigfoot hunting, wouldn't you carry the biggest, most powerful light source available? Not this guy Kenzie. He and his pals are pretty much limited to small, handheld flashlights that barely light up fireflies right in front of them. And when you seem to be convinced you are "surrounded by Bigfoots", wouldn't you have your video camera ready to record instantly? Not Kenzie. His excuse for not recording a Bigfoot is that it moved so fast, by the time he got his camera ready it was gone. And then there's the assigned professional cameraman for the documentary. With Bigfoots allegedly all around them, this guy keeps his professional video camera with its strong light source pointed right at Kenzie, mostly close-up on his oddly-shaped head in profile instead of at all the Bigfoots that are supposedly "surrounding" them all. Apparently it's more important to capture Kenzie's silly, excited reactions than it is to finally catch a real Bigfoot on camera.
This entire enterprise is laughable and amateurish. I cannot imagine who funds this stuff. But there was some satisfaction at the end of the supposedly exciting, climactic hunt: the intrepid Bigfoot hunters realized they were lost and didn't know their way back to their vehicles. If only they had really found a Bigfoot, he could've led them back.
A plena luz: El caso Narvarte (2022)
Kinda' artsy but it's an important documentary.
Though I was impressed with the different types of re-enactments, including the use of miniature recreated crime scenes, and the use of actors wearing color-coded costumes in life-size recreations, I was also frustrated by the pacing and non-linear presentation. But the important thing is this documentary lays bare who is responsible for this heinous crime. How the impossibly corrupt government bigshots in Mexico can present such stupid explanations in their attempts to cover their blatant criminal acts and those of their cohorts is beyond incredible. Either certain Mexican authorities are unbelievably stupid, or they think the general public is even stupider, or they are so incredibly arrogant they plainly present ludicrous explanations and the fabricated results of investigations while winking at the public, as if to say, "That's our story and we're sticking with it. Try to prove otherwise."
Sister Wives (2010)
This show needs to END! It is awful.
And every adult on it, with the possible exception of Robyn, is a useless, obese tool with a huge, unique personality disorder.
Seriously, Kody is definitely a narcissist, probably with some diagnosable pathology called "malignant narcissistic personality disorder" or something like that. He tosses back his silly looking perm ringlets, trying to cover up his already-receded hairline, and whines about how his two fattest and ugliest wives are mean to him and have left him. Instead of counting his blessings for getting rid of a total of more than 500 pounds of ugly fat (between the two of them) he cries and whines because he knows it makes him look stupid.
I was so glad to see Christine leave; she is a toxic attention hog with no talent, no feminine energy, no redeeming qualities, and a repugnant personality (along with questionable personal hygiene). Then, when Janelle openly took Christine's side in the "divorce" (all she had to do was rent a U-Haul), it was the death knell for her relationship with Kody, too. Of course, his idiotically strict adherence to the government's impractical COVID protocols didn't help. But neither did Janelle's string of moronic decisions that she has made without her spouse's input. Sure, he's a completely unlikable tool but he's also the only man who would find someone like her to be attractive. Janelle and Christine should both expect to spend the rest of their lives alone and eating their weight in ice cream every Saturday night. The pair of them are obnoxious and unpleasant to listen to, so to have to actually look at the two of them as they each spew their whiny nonsense would be too much for any other guy to tolerate.
As for poor Meri, she's even more clueless now than when she got catfished. If she is OK with whatever is going on between her and Kody now, then I really don't care. That's her problem. But why she feels the need to share this dysfunction on TV is beyond my ability to comprehend.
Robyn is still the only fairly attractive woman on this show, and she is the only one with a decent personality. I feel sorry for her because she's now stuck with Kody, his obnoxious personality, and his nineties perm-combover on pretty much a full-time basis. She had originally only had to listen to him whine on two nights a week or so, but by virtue of the process of elimination, Robyn has lost this game of Old Maid.
