Pilot Episode Overview:

The Pacific Northwest may have Bigfoot, but Florida has its own cryptid mystery: the Skunk Ape. Often dubbed the "Florida Sasquatch", this elusive figure roams the Everglades, leaving behind tales as pungent as its reputed scent.

As we traverse the Sunshine State, we delve into the depth of this legend. Florida's surprising rank as third in the U.S. for Bigfoot sightings, as noted by the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization (yes, such a thing exists), hints at a broader national fascination.

Beyond the myth, the episode shines through its cast of quirky Floridians. Their anecdotes, passions, and sometimes humorous involvements with the Skunk Ape breathe life into this enigmatic tale.

This episode isn’t merely a quest for the unknown; it’s a celebration of the culture, characters, and charm inherent to Florida’s unique tapestry.
