"Dog the Bounty Hunter" is a reality television show that documents the antics of Duane Chapman and his family, a real life legal modern day bounty hunter. Duane runs his own Bail Bonds company and is paid reward money for every fugitive he manages to take into custody on behalf of the state, and that is his business.

Dog The Bounty Hunter is a reality television programme shown on Bravo television in the UK and syndicated world wide. Duane "Dog" Chapman is an American Citizen currently residing in Hawaii that has been convicted 18 times for armed robbery and has one conviction for first degree murder. The latter of which he maintains was a wrongfully charged conviction. I am not sure of his stance on the armed robbery convictions. At some stage in his life he found God, and in Jesus Christ his Lord he puts his faith. Having found God (which coincidentally is Dog spelt backwards) he set out on a path to turn his life around and as part of this ...  Read the complete review

The program follows them looking for fugitives in Mexico - how they go about finding people and then what happens to them. This family is probably like no other in this line of work.

He makes sure they are not going to prison with anything that could get them into more trouble. He tells them their ...  Read the complete review

WHAT IS IT ABOUT: Duane 'Dog' Chapman is a bounty hunter in Hawaii. For us in the UK, the whole bounty thing is a bit of a mystery, but the simple way to explain it is to say that Dog and his co-workers have to hunt down criminals for a cash reward. The show is a reality TV programme that follows larger than life Dog and his crew on the job chasing fugitives. IS IT ANY GOOD: This is one of those rare shows that is unlike pretty much anything out there. When the TV execs met Dog they must have not been able to believe their luck - this eccentric, odd-ball character is the star of the show. He's big, muscular and tough, but kind and Christian too. He's ...  Read the complete review
