I stopped watching after episode 6, I am a paranormal investigator and medium, this seemed made up. Too perfect, diary in the car, weird stuff buried, dream leading to uncovering weird stuff. No police investigation after bone fragments recovered, no video recordings of ANYTHING, not even from the Paranormal investigators who are actually holding a video recorder in the reenactment, yet capture NOTHING!! Not even the beaded curtain moving. Then they seemed to leave, without returning or sharing the EVP allegedly captured, with their client. They only return for the documentary, yet apparently they all love each other as they keep declaring upon meeting again ??? I'll be honest, if that's the scariest investigation they've done, we need to check their credentials. So this made me think of the entire thing as a mockumentary, which is a waste of time.

Interesting. Noted the Triangle moves and changes shape. The upside down trees is probably the thing that caught my attention the most. So much so that I dug into it on the net. It was supposedly a thing loggers would do in Washington state as a joke. No mention of it in Alaska.
I dislike shows that repeat things and footage over and over to help fill an episode. I saw this done a lot on this show. They bring in people like Cliff from Finding Bigfoot and Linda Howe and re-use footage of them over and over in a single episode as an example.
Then go back to that footage in subsequent episodes. Kind of bothersome after awhile. Alaska is pretty remote and it would be expensive to get a crew up there and re-shoot all new stuff so I kind of understand, but after awhile it just becomes them trying to hammer the same info into your skull.

Entertaining

This is the same along the lines of all other shows like this. The narrator is so invested and it's all just hyperbole. What I do think is annoying, is that the same people that have seen the thunderbird, also have seen the UFOs and also have seen the water monster. That's just a crazy coincidence. Don't watch for truth, watch for entertainment.
SAME FOOTPRINT FOR SEPARATE SIGHTINGS!
akpurple-3557227 June 2022
2022 - S2/E8 - the picture of the supposed Bigfoot print in the mud was used for BOTH SEPARATE sightings in this episode. And it looks fake because it shows a big indent where the arch would be, like humans. Shame on you for displaying such cheap parlor tricks!!! Pathetic, actually! Quit giving Alaska a bad name!
Pathetic
jabandrade31 August 2020
I rated it 2 just because of the landscapes that are stunning. The premise of investigating sightings of mysterious creatures never found or seen and then trying to hunt them down is basically pathetic. If, instead of wasting time on such nonsense, they endeavored to tell stories of disappearances and unexplained cases that reaaly occurred in Alaska, perhaps the program would become interesting.
Spinning triangle

really good

Don't understand the bad reviews. there is the odd episode that i don't like (don't need to see another ghost story of a haunted hotel) . but generally really interesting. i've had a lot of supernatural experiences so maybe its easier for me to believe than other people.
Some interesting history... combine with plenty of hokum

If you're a fan of "ghost hunter" shows, replete with high tech looking devices that supposedly reveal the presence of spirits, then you may enjoy this. But speaking as someone who doesn't necessarily disbelieve in other-worldy things, but who is highly skeptical of those who seek fortune/fame by "chasing" them, the only interesting aspect of this show is the historic setup. Once they get out the Star Trek ghost-hunting gizmos all credibility goes out the window.
Skip this one unless you believe you can locate you long-dead aunt using an app on your smart phone. The stories told here deserve a better platform.

Loved it! Just premiered in the UK
lookevans20 July 2020
Was so awesome to finally start watching this, I saw this was advertised for release in the US and was wondering when it would finally get a UK release. Thoroughly enjoyed, I'm a sucker for conspiracies and mysteries, good bit of fun to watch with my mates. The stuff about the Japanese Airlines UFO was fascinating and actually pretty unsettling!

I've lived in Alaska damn-near all my life. Never heard of the Alaskan Triangle or any other tall tale. The only things you ever hear a real Alaskan talk about is hunting, fishing hiking etc. Stop buying into this fake "REALITY" felgarcarb!
Ridiculous Show!
collectorofsorts11 January 2021
I'm normally a fan of this type of program. But, this one is just ridiculous. The hour-long program of improbable guesswork is basically 10 minutes of the same guesswork repeated over and over. There's no substance. Nothing to back any of it up. Just guesswork that's really improbable. PS: I've actually worked in Alaska and I've never heard of any 'Alaska Triangle'. I think the whole premise is just science-fiction. Basically, they take things that can happen in the most horrible environment imaginable where you can freeze to death in a matter of hours and your vehicle or plane can become covered with snow by morning and add supernatural/science-fiction tales to it.
Weird and Wonderful!

Really enjoyed this, covered a lot of interesting stories in a variety of different ways. I'm a particular fan of the Port Chatham Hairyman episode, was so cool to see people out in the field and investigating the abandoned town - eerie and atmospheric stuff and nicely shot. It's safe to say that Alaska has gone up on my list of places I need to visit!
This has to be put out as deliberate comedic misinformation

Especially the episode where the fearless Chuke is going to Kodiak Island to "catch" bigfoot. Chuke tells us "it's the dream of his life". Chuke arrives on Kodiak in the late afternoon and spends 4 hours backpacking through the Alaskan wilderness with his rifle, field cam and pants that keep falling down. He decides he can't finish the trip because it's getting dark and he is tired. Chuke deploys his bunny cams and notices a bunch of upside down trees and decides these are definitive proof of Bigfoot. He says "mission accomplished" and heads back to his hotel. When there, Chuke treats viewers to his field cam footage through the internet and shows us a scared deer. What on earth? No one in their right mind is sending Chuke to look for anything - except his belt to keep his pants up - and certainly not for Bigfoot. One might think satellite imagery if the government were really interested in the reality of Sasquatch? Most of the episodes on this show are totally ridiculous. I do believe things like Bigfoot, aliens and their craft exist and probably in Alaska but this show reduces the credibility of the topic. Watch only if you want humor not for serious Alaskan facts.
Covers overlooked cryptids and stories.

Alaska is amazing from one end to the other. It's remote and sparsely populated, places like this often have a vibe about them.
This show does it's best to cover some fascinating incidents that does make one wonder...
I would welcome season 2. There's plenty more mysteries and mysterious happenings going on in that place.
Much like the Bermuda Triangle, Alaska has a triangle all of it's own.
Grasping for subject matter...
blueyes-3367612 October 2021
The premise of the series is that a mysterious force is behind the unexplained disappearances & disasters of persons/aircraft/vessels navigating waters or airspace in an area of Alaska, as in Bermuda Triangle mystique. Sooo, a few episodes allow for a brief parallel but it quickly erodes into a paranormal arena that neither "requires" any particular location nor is the show enhanced by trying to connect geolocation to certain events. The burned cabin was a disturbing episode to say the least, even if it was shown as part of a ghost busters program. A murder victim buried under a house? Haunting aside, where are the authorities on this cold (sorry about the pun) case? Worse and utterly unconscionable, what are they doing attempting to excavate the body of a young woman, a presumed homicide victim, on public television?! What about the family? How does one sit through this without considering the legalities, the ethics, even the morality of such insensitivity to human life and family or friends connected to the victim? There is no place for this on any show. I am appalled. Sensationalism is a cheap way to try to buy an audience but when disregard for human dignity is abandoned for the sake of airtime it should not be overlooked by the audience, or in this case, authorities.
Awful

Compelling and eerie
rcollins2018 April 2021
A fascinating and hair-raising documentary series that probes into paranormal and unanswered events. Historical and investigative, "The Alaska Triangle" is filled with compelling interviews, entertaining re-enactments and good old fashioned spooky fun.
What a crock of crap!
cdeanroane9 October 2021
The first show was sort of interesting! However this has steadily descended to a lot of non sense of ghost stories/sighting, aliens/ET and Big Foot sighting! Why the Travel Channel thinks people really think any of this is interesting it beyond my understanding! It has become a show for adolescent nonsense. Season 2 episode 4 there is a Bozo named Mike looking for ghost on a highway with his spirit box. In case you never heard of this piece of fake equipment. Spirit Box, you present the spirit with a vast selection of radio waves and frequencies in which it may choose to communicate, and then let the fun begin by letting your feeble translating the noise into what ever you want it to be. There once was time a when the Travel Channel showed shows featuring exotic locations or hidden jewels off the beaten path. However now days it shows things like this. Much same ways as the History Channel has switched to this kind of non sense in for much of its programming! You will some of the people in this show as you find on History Channel as presents or so called experts!
a great series overall
red_baron198627 February 2022
This is a great series. I discovered it by accident but watch it whenever I see it on. I can't believe it's only been around since 2020. Although there was a history channel special a while back. I have been studying the Bermuda Triangle for years and have just started to learn about the Alaskan Triangle as well as The Dragon's Triangle (Japan). It has alot of interesting subjects such as hauntings, Aliens, the sinking of The Princess Sophia, strange creatures (remember most of Alaska is still wilderness country). The show hasn't been around that long so there aren't that many episodes, which is probably why some people think they are saying the same stuff, well if you are watching a marathon you are seeing episodes that previously aired so you probably have seen the content in that regard. I hope they put this show on dvd/blu-ray at some point. I really enjoy it, and anyone into The Bermuda Triangle, supernatural, strange phenomenon in general should check it out. It is definitely worth watching. Can't wait for more new episodes.

Do Not Even Bother! Complete waste of time. The only reason it gets 3 stars is because the scenery is so amazing - except it's not Alaska. There is no "Alaska Triangle" and this series never identifies it - in fact, it changes in every episode, at least the first four. Couldn't make it past the 'Haunted Cabin/ Giants" episode. Yes, there is a Black Pyramid, yes there is Sasquatch/Yeti/Nantiinaq/Hairy Man going back thousands of years. Yes there are secret military bases like Area 51. Yes there are imprints and haunting. Yes there are Lei Lines and Electromagnetic vortex interference. Instead of examining all of that with legitimate history, evidence backed by police reports, physics, missing person family members, and verifiable information this series instead chooses to pretend.
i spotted what seems like a big lie, so if there's one, are they all lies?
Sean_Biggins11 November 2021
In season 2, episode 7, (about 19:40 minutes from the start), they talk about marks in the snow from a UFO, and they say this 'hunter' found them but there is a paved road right beside the marks, like right up against them, plus a fire hydrant that's only about 2 feet from the marks (both in the upper right hand corner). And in the left corner, the front of someones house and some stairs. Why don't they even just mention the location? Instead it seems they just avoid the obvious. This seems very dubious to me. Also, the story about the killer whale being found inland saying it was brough there by a UFO? I have seen NO mention of this and it sounds cooked up - probably inspired from that silly Star Trek movie where they beamed up a whale into the Enterprise for some ridiculous reason. Anyhow it wold be VERY easy to cook up a show like this to sell to suckers and I don't trust it.
