From Destination America:
(Silver Spring, Md.) – Destination America announced today that MOUNTAIN MONSTERS has been greenlit for season five slated to premiere in Spring 2017. Production begins this month on the monster hit that follows a band of hardcore hunters and trappers, known as the Appalachian Investigators of Mysterious Sightings (AIMS), as they try to prove that Bigfoot exists in hill country.
The fourth season finale of MOUNTAIN MONSTERS on April 16, 2016 ranks as Destination America’s #1 telecast ever among HH, P2+, and M25-54 in L+3 delivery. It wrapped up the latest saga in AIMS’ ongoing search for Bigfoot – but this time with their fearless leader, Trapper, coaching from the sideline. Fans rallied around Trapper during his recovery from illness and cheered on the rest of the team, Buck, Huckleberry, Wild Bill, Jeff, and Willy, as they continued on their quest – and discovered a new foe in the foothills. AIMS was shadowed by a rogue rival team that closed in on their investigations but had not yet been identified, culminating in a cliffhanger finale with a mysterious attempt to make contact.
“MOUNTAIN MONSTERS fans are about as loyal as they come, second only to the AIMS team and their unwavering dedication to finding Bigfoot,” said Jane Latman, general manager of Destination America. “We hear from devoted viewers every single day wanting to know when they’ll get to see more of their favorite monster hunters, and we’re excited to announce that the wait is almost over.”
Nowhere does the mystery of Bigfoot’s existence run deeper than in Appalachia where, over the last 10 years alone, AIMS has uncovered evidence that more than a dozen different Bigfoot clans may call the mountain region home. In the new season, they’ll investigate new reports of Bigfoot sightings to track and attempt to trap these mysterious creatures.
MOUNTAIN MONSTERS is produced by American Chainsaws for Destination America with Colt Straub, Duke Straub, Royal Malloy, Russell Geyser and Jay Bluemke as executive producers. For Destination America, Cathy Garland is executive producer, Jane Latman is general manager, and Henry Schleiff is group president of Investigation Discovery, Destination America, and American Heroes Channel.”
What do you think? Have you seen Mountain Monsters? Are you glad it’s been renewed?
MORE MOUNTAIN MONSTERS! !!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!
I too LOVE this show! I miss it! Please, bring it back. If it’s coming back, does anyone know when?
This has to be an extension of the Three Stooges? or it’s Dumb and dumber and dumber and dumber… and so on 🙂 Hard core investigators?? that’s a stretch I am surprised that they don’t constantly shoot one another. Still I love watching them! bring them back. They are the only ones chasing big foot and they are very entertaining to watch. Although I don’t think they will ever catch a Big Foot I hope they do some day and in the meantime it’s fun to watch them try. Yes bring them back. 🙂
Love the AIMS team, need to find out What happens to Buck. Love seeing all the traps and the guys . People need to see that there’s unexplained creatures and I think The AIMS team are just the ones to be able to find and get the evidence needed to prove this. We need to see more of the show and see their investigations
I LOVE Mountain Monsters ! It the BEST show ever ! I hope the show never goes off the air ! I have not seen the show for. a week or 2 and am wondering if it is off the air again and we fans have to wait. Hope it is still on over the summer and longer ! The AIMS team the greatest !!! I am still waiting to find out what happens with them and the Rogue Team. The last thing I saw was Buck getting into the truck with a Rogue Team member and that was it.
