Scathingly funny review of "UFO Hunters"

UFO Hunters is my favorite of all the reality/documentary shows on cable. In fact, Wednesday nights are an extra special treat treat with Ghost Hunter, Monster Quest and UFO Hunters back to back to back

I completely and totally agree with everything the reviewer says about the show - it is incredibly formulaic, predictable, given to huge lapses in logic and reason, and frequently borders on unintentional hilarity. The only think that'd make the show any better would be for Lt. Frank Drebin to be invertiewed as a credible alien abduction witness.

My favorite utterly bizarre moment of the series was when they went out looking for physical evidence of UFOs and ended up in a cave looking for gold for about 20 minutes. For god's sake why, you ask? Because aliens might be prospecting for gold on the earth by apparently crawling around in caves in the middle of no where.

Or when a witness reported hat a UFO entered the water without making a splash - so they ran a series of inane, 1950's science TV show host type experiments to see if they could coat a cylinder with chemicals to keep it from splashing when they dropped it into a water tank. The end result? Everything they did made the spashes bigger, so they came to the highly respectable scientific conclusion that this proves that aliens exist and that they have technology far greater than our own. Huh?

I didn't like Kevin Cook when they first brought him onto the show at the beginning of the year, but now I think he's priceless - every time Pat and Bill start talking about how the absence of UFO evidence constitutes proof of a massive government conspiracy, Kevin gets this weird look on his face like he's thinking "it's just a job, I needed the money, nobody watches this show anyway plus I can always change my name and get contact lenses..."

You know what, Heidi? We can do our own UFO investigations and do our own UFO experiments. Hopefully experiments involving UFOs flying around volcanos because I can make a really wicked paper mache volcano using vinegar and baking soda.
