The series starts out showing evidence of before unseen(by me) archaeological sites in North America. The evidence is reviewed and a supposition given. Pretty straight forward documentary type stuff. By the end of the season and the culminating Templar Treasure episode, the amount of hype and pure unfounded speculation is off the charts.
So the shows start out with stuff that hasn't been hammered home in oh so many documentaries and movies, then ends up with Scott Wolter giving his opinion about all the stuff we've been seeing for the past couple decades. Templars, the Grail, Freemasons, you name it, this series hits all the high points in the end.
Scientists start with a hypothesis, do the research and then give a report on what they evidence shows. Scott Wolter has an opinion, and looks for only the evidence that supports it. By the end of the last show, with the drill that wouldn't start and the fist pumping and crack-pottering(is that a verb?), my eyes were rolling so much that I thought I would strain my optic nerve. This show is entertaining but I don't think there's a need for another season because they have shot through all the relevant topics a sensationalist show like this feeds on.
