Swamp People: Season One
Deep in the heart of Louisiana lies Americas largest swamp--a million miles of inhospitable bayous, marshes and wetlands where nature rules and humans struggle to tame it. Many of its inhabitants are the hardened descendants of French refugees who were forced out of Canada in the 18th century and settled in this harsh yet majestic environment.
SEASON ONE of SWAMP PEOPLE takes you on a journey to a hidden world, the bayous and swamplands of Americas southern heartland, where the folks who dwell here live on the fringes of society and are known as Cajuns. Resilient, self-reliant and fiercely independent, the Cajuns of the Atchafalaya Swamp still carry on many of their ancestors trades and traditions. HISTORYs SWAMP PEOPLE follows these swampers through a time of year that is crucial to their survival: the 30-day alligator hunting season. At its core, this is a uniquely American story of a proud and skillful people fighting to maintain an ancient way of life in a rapidly modernizing world, despite the many perils and trials that stand in their way.


1) Big Head Bites It
Welcome to one of Americas last frontiers: the wild swamplands of Southern Louisiana, a place whose history stretches back to the 17th century. Its the start of the most exciting--and dangerous--time of year for the swampers, the month-long alligator season. During this 30 day window, swampers make most of their annual income culling gators. Troy Landry, a Cajun whose family goes back three generations is on a mission to hunt down his own personal white whale, the notorious Big Head, a monster gator hes been after for years. This season, Big Head is threatening the bayous swimming holes, and must be stopped at all costs. In this episode, we also meet master hunter Junior Edwards and his older son, Willie, as they make their special weapons, specially designed hooks. Another father and son team Trapper Joe Lenfant and his stepson Tommy, also hit the marshlands, where careless Tommy puts his life at risk.

2) Houdinis Last Escape
Troy enters one of the most mysterious hunting grounds in the swamp: the ominous cypress groves, in search of a monster gator thats escaped his traps for years. Meanwhile, Junior enters a different kind of foreign territory as he reluctantly hosts the ultimate greenhorn, an Italian leather buyer.

3) Troys Gamble
Troy desperately needs to find a new honey hole, a corner of the bayou teeming with gators. He thinks hes found one, but the rights to hunt it will cost him a lot of cash. He takes the risk--but will it pay off? Meanwhile, Joe and Tommy contend with their own greenhorn, a landlubber named Bud. Across the swamp, the Kliebard family shows they dont need the aid of computers or a factory--Mike engineers and builds a perfect aluminum boat from scratch, showing off his Cajun ingenuity and expertise.

4) Cannibal Gator
Alligators are among the most territorial of animals, and wont hesitate to eat smaller gators that wander into their feeding grounds. Joe and Tommy come up against the notorious cannibal gator they call Godzilla, when they discover smaller gators on their bait lines scarred with bite marks. Meanwhile, Mike and Troy face different battles. Mikes trying to pass down his vast swamp knowledge to his son T-Mike, while Troys lines are empty, putting his season in jeopardy.

5) Force of Nature
A cold spell is coming, one that could drive gators into early hibernation, ending the season early. Its a race against time as every gator hunter in the gulf tries to beat the storm.

6) Family Feuds
Its halfway through the grueling alligator season and the stress is taking a toll on families throughout the swamp. Joe and Tommy are fighting... and even Troy is frustrated. Meanwhile, nuisance gator hunter Howard McCrea is tracking a deadly gator.

7) Swamp Wars
As the swampers race toward the end of gator season, Tommy and Joe have a poacher after their catch and vow swamp justice. Meanwhile, Junior and Willie try different ways to earn cash: catching frogs and snakes.

8) Gator Voodoo
With just a week left in the season, the gators have mysteriously stopped biting. Is it the full moon? Swampers fight back with their own tried and true tactics, from new territories to a traditional Cajun bait called shake and bake.

9) Final Countdown
With just a few days left in the season, the pressures intensifying. Can the swampers tag out in time?

10) The Last Battle
Its the final two days of alligator season. There are still a lot of gators to catch, not the least of which is the big daddy of all cannibal gators, the one known as the Loch Ness Monster. Troy faces his ultimate nemesis, as other swampers race to end the season.
