I have been obsessively watching this show now for 3 (?) seasons. I'm not sure any show has ever made me desperately wanting to see the next episode like this show does.

Yes, I admit the pacing can be slow at times and they like to repeat stories and bits constantly but by golly at the end of each show I seem to find myself inching toward the TV trying to figure out the newest twist the Brothers have discovered on the mystery.

Any other fans?

i like watching the show, but I am convinced the treasure they are chasing is 100% B.S.

although I think they could actually find some small amount of real pirate treasure somewhere near the lagoon, they are not going to find the Holy Grail, the Ark of the Covenant and Rasputin's testicles at the bottom of the big hole they are digging.

I guess History is paying them 100K an episode. Supposedly they also have other unnamed $$$ backers that are funding this exhibition.

Hutton Pulitzer just posted on FB that the Bros are still playing in 10x this morning, wrapping up before winter. In other words, we won't be getting a major find out of this season it appears.

its a good story - I just don't think there's a lot of truth behind it

its fun to watch anyways, I agree that it is pretty exciting and intense at times.

I've been a faithful viewer of the show. I've been very interested in the story behind the Oak Island treasure since reading about it when I was a kid. As for the treasure, I know it was there at one time, but I would be very surprised if they found anything there now, it's long since been removed.

I enjoyed the second episode but as always the show spent an hour getting very little in the way of progress. I sure hope the divers actually get down in the hole and gives us the answer. So of course next week's clips are about the guys following another random person's idea and digging a new hole somewhere. AUGH!

I agree, very frustrating to watch, but I'm too intrigued by the whole Oak Island mystery to give up on it entirely. Last season, I was fed up with all the "field trips" to Scotland, etc, while they were trying to figure out where the treasure came from. Never mind the fact that they hadn't actually found it yet! Couldn't they just stay in Nova Scotia and dig some more, lol!

Arnold_OldSchool · 11-27-2015, 05:59 AM

Another episode where they do more thinking than action.

Can't wait for the divers to give it a go once and for all.

Arnold_OldSchool · 12-02-2015, 11:08 AM

Fun episode as it really felt like they are moving toward a real resolution!

The next step sure feels like success.

Can't wait to see where this all ends.....

and the end tease with the camera in the pit made me wish it was next week already!

I could have done without more history talk regarding the stone. Just dig!!!!!!!

Arnold_OldSchool · 12-09-2015, 11:58 AM

Wowzers....

With 10x all but finished (minus a real look at the floor) that pretty much leaves the vault as the last hope for any real treasure find.

I wonder what Dan's reaction was to seeing his baby come up empty?

I also wonder why they didn't send the robot back down to find the floor since the team was still there when they were debating such things.

This is so deflating and next week we are back to staring at rocks

I fear a big ratings drop with all the 10x hype ending this way!

See? They already found the treasure...

Arnold_OldSchool · 12-16-2015, 12:23 PM

Things continue to fall flat as the latest sonar whatever tech comes up empty and then we stare at rocks. The big finish is another wacko coming in with a theory.

Ugh

Laura77 · 12-29-2015, 10:38 PM

Sunday's ep was another letdown. Found a sharpened post, then dropped everything to visit with an author and bury a time capsule.

Arnold_OldSchool · 01-01-2016, 05:55 PM

At least they are heading back to 10x this week

Laura77 · 01-01-2016, 06:00 PM

I missed seeing the preview for this weeks episode. I wonder what's making them head back to 10 x again?
