I enjoyed/enjoy them, though some are somewhat questionable in content, facts and factual material but God, they are FUN to watch!!!
Some of them border on the ridiculous, even for cryptozoology. The one with the "evil gnome" was laughable. If the two woman did really see something it was likely a perverted midget who was getting his rocks off.

I posted about this one too before. It was a bit creepy though when he was peering in the window and laughing. I found the episode entertaining though unbelievable. He even had a pointy hat! It was like a keebler elf after a night at Charlie Sheen's house LOL.
I watched some of the episodes from the marathon yesterday. Two "monsters" really came to me as fake.
The Pope Lick Monster doesn't even seem remotely paranormal, let alone having wolfman running around the train tracks. Basically, what I saw in the death of that kid was some stupid teenagers thinking they are invincible by going and running out on the train tracks. It was curiosity and nothing else. They weren't "lured" there by the wolf man, that's just a horrible excuse. Why can't anyone see the connection here? Legend in a normal dangerous place-->teenage curiosity--->tragic accidents. It's not too hard to understand, people.
The second was the green-clawed. The first thing that has me questioning the validity of the beast is that it has only ever attacked one person. With a lot of these other "monsters" there are tens, if not hundreds, of witnesses. In this case, only one person has ever been attacked, and there has never been any other witnesses to my knowledge. The other thing that makes me think twice of this being anything worthwhile is the government intervention. The lady said that she didn't understand why the government told her never to mention it again. Well, it was obvious to me. The government didn't want this to spread too far because the "green-clawed monster", in my opinion, was a government accident. It was some kind of mutated fish. Somehow, my theory is, this big fish developed claws and was attacking the lady in the story. I believe it had somehow escaped from government cages (or whatever), and the government didn't want others to know what they are doing.
Look, guys, I want to believe these tales more than anyone else, but I am also a very analytical person, and need to be able reason it in my mind in order to believe.

I don't watch because I think it's all real, I've just always loved hearing ghost stories/urban legends/folk monster tales ever since I was a young kid.
I love all of these tales too. However, it is my opinion that if you propose these stories in this factual way, they have to be factual. Both of these monsters seem like they are, "well we have segment to fill, so we need something" type of monsters. I just feel like, as the viewer, we are entitled to some kind of authenticity.
Nope, never seen them.. I was a big fan of "Destination Truth" though.. the comedy in that series was alone worth it
