I never picked it up.
History channel shows are so arduous that the premise has to really grab me, and the premise of this doesn't.
Nebula.tv is so much better for actual history stuff, so History channel can rot with the boomers who have no choice but to endure girlboss vikings and racebent nonsense.
as bad as nüHistory Channel shit is it's never as bad as nüDiscovery Channel although this one is on par with Gold Rush/Ice Road Truckers/Deadliest Catch. that shit is so bad it makes local news look appealing.
Gold Rush white water is kino, it's probably still part scripted like all those shows but the shit they do is so obviously unsafe it has sovl
I cannot fathom the enjoyment of watching a group of dunderheads digging holes with machinery. my brother watches all these shitty employment reality series when he himself works in and around this field. why the frick would you watch other do the thing you do on your time off? absolute wackjob shit.
I gave up on it a few times, came around when I was bored because it’s comfy. Seeing them find a spike from a modern farm tool and phoning in an “expert” who said it’s from a Roman weapon crossed a line even for a history channel show
Not at all.
Fabricating a hoax to get people to visit your podunk little village was all the rage in that era.
If there ever was anything valuable on the island, that Samuel Ball character took it with him when he left.
They went too hard with WW2, Civil War, and Vietnam in the 2000-2010s and used up all their ideas. Which is funny because they literally do no overseas history it feels like.
>Stopped digging in an area and fired their historical experts because there was a risk of actually discovering real historical artefacts and that would cost them to much money to continue
The show was always bullshit, but after that it was straight fantasy.
I grew up reading about these great mysteries and have concluded that that they are all elaborate hoaxes. I still have hopes that Beale's treasure is the real deal
Imagine being a rich boomer so rich you just make your job treasure hunting. Frick they had it so damn easy.
Imagine being his kid watching them burn through his inheritance.
>tfw I have SKI boomer parents
ouch bro.
The worst part is it's not even their money, it's the money they inherited from my grandparents.

What is this even about? I only watch Swamp People and Alone.
They try digging for buried treasure on an island. 10 seasons later they still haven't found it. 10 seasons of blueballs.
when it became obvious that continuing the show indefinitely was going to be more profitable than actually finding anything
Why didn't they buy the whole island and strip mine it until they find something.
bruh this shi is like tiktok for boomers
fr fr no cap
Why don't they just nuke the island at this point
Why don't they just have the eagles find the treasure?
I'll never give up
>find rusty chinese staple on topsoil
>30 minute schizodump on the templars
10 seasons, did they ever find anything interesting?
friends along the way
A 12th century coin, thats it lmao. Glad I dropped it after 2-3 seasons. My boomer father is still captured by it

>expert is some rube with an anvil
we need to go deeper is all
The 17th century masons BTFO all of them accept fricking defeat
They'll never find anything even though something huge is definitely there, they don't want it found
Do you guys think that rock with the carvings was real?

>Did Hitler, Bigfoot, and the ancient aliens hide their gold bars in Atlantis? Tune in tonight to find out!
What the frick is wrong with this channel?
Because factual history doesnt sell. Conspiracy theories will pull in the morons. As evidenced with /misc/ and qanon.
They went too hard with WW2, Civil War, and Vietnam in the 2000-2010s and used up all their ideas. Which is funny because they literally do no overseas history it feels like.
It’s fake
It all started with Hitler.
