Just caught Destination Truth tonight. Once again, I got drawn into a Sci-Fi Channel show by a hot guy. Damn, he is photogenic (and I feel like this is an understatement). Manly, goofy, and nerdy – what a nice combination.
There’s already been a few episodes (which I missed), but Josh Gates and company chase the paranormal, sort of like an updated In Search Of. Gates, the photographer turned documentarian adventurer, in this episode flies to New Guinea to chase a featherless bird (more like a pterasaur), and then to Chile to see if he could catch a chupacabra. His dry sense of humor makes some moments fun, especially when the witnesses or guides provide him with reasons to be skeptical. The dreadlocked guide in New Guinea claims the trees in a spot leading to the flying creature’s cave got smaller, while a Chilean bus driver produces a hair of a chupacabra from his wallet, right underneath his driver’s license.
It’s not the type of show to convert the viewer to believing in the paranormal. However, the fun is in the adventure and the search, even if it creates more questions than it answers.
Update:
If you want to see more images of Josh Gates, here is a gallery on the Sci-Fi Channel’s website.
