Ridiculous show about a hack sfx artist and his much more talented daughter. He basically lets down every director that he works with and then praises his own work. It's astonishing that this man actually gets work. Thankfully this show was axed quickly.

Gone (from d tube), but not forgotten...

I was surprised when MONSTER MAN was canceled: it allowed viewers to take an all-too rare and genuinely fascinating look at just how difficult it can be to get a monster up and running. Impossible deadlines and everything that could possibly go wrong combined with miscommunication(s) and bruised egos to produce episode after episode of a day in the life of a true Monster Maker. Truly fascinating. (One of my favorites had to be the two-headed shark; while it might not've looked Real World real, it was a great idea and it was fun to watch the shooting of the "double-header" attack.) It's sad that so many filmmakers these days opt for cgi instead of Practical Effects. Give me the monster in the rubber suit any day of the week.
