Bruce Campbell Is Set to Host the New RIPLEY'S BELIEVE IT OR NOT Series; Watch the Trailer
The Travel Channel is reviving the classic series Ripley’s Believe It Or Not series, and they announced the on Twitter with a trailer for the series that Bruce Campbell will be the host of the series!
I couldn’t think of anyone better or more fit to host a series like this. As a huge fan of Campbell, I’d much rather see him make an Army of Darkness sequel, but I’ll happily watch him host a series that focuses on exploring all the weird, wonderful, and unexplained things in the world.

We have seen various iterations of the Ripley’s Believe It Or Not series since 1949 when it first aired on NBC until 1950. It was later revived in 1982 and ran until 1986. It was later brought back in 2000 and aired until 2003.
Campbell joins a long line of hosts that previously included Robert Ripley, Doug Stoner, Jack Palance, Catherine Sheriff, Holly Palance, Marie Osmond, Dean Cain, Kelly Packard, and Gregory Jbara.
I’ve enjoyed watching the show over the years, and I’m happy to see it’s coming back with Campbell as the host!
