New Television Pilot: It's a Wrap!

We all would love to believe that aliens have visited us, that there was a second gunman on the grassy knoll, that certain gifted people can move objects with their mind. But belief is not enough. Like any accepted science, these ideas must stand up to experimentation. Belief alone is not proof. That is where we come in.

 

We are The Skeptologists.

We're not willing to just accept stories of the paranormal or supernatural. We want proof. Each week, we'll take on a handful of wild claims -- from the Bermuda Triangle to Bigfoot sightings to haunted houses -- and apply accepted scientific practices and experiments to see if these ideas really hold up. Whether in the field or in the lab, we'll literally put these subjects to the test in the hopes that one day we may find something that can't be explained. Each episode will investigate one or more popular paranormal, supernatural, or other type of phenomena, in favor of evidence-based science.

 

Executive producers Ryan Johnson (American Dragster) and Brian Dunning (Skeptoid).

Principal photography has wrapped for the Pilot Episode of the TV series “The Skeptologists!”

Production was absolutely amazing and was a great experience for all involved. We had an incredible cast and crew and were able to get everything we needed, ahead of schedule and we are now beginning the process of Post Production.

 

As you navigate through the website, you’ll see some pictures from the production, and the meetings that we held during the production. We had a great group and everyone worked very hard. I thank each and every one of you that put in hard work, money and time for this project.

As we start editing and finishing the show, we’re working on ways that the community at large can show their support for this program and support good, responsible and intelligent TV programming. Click on the “Support The Skeptologists” link and send us an email telling us why you want to see a show like this on TV. We will present these submissions to the networks during our pitch to show them the type of support that we really have for a program of this nature.
