This show was the embarrassment of Geraldo's career back in the day. But looking back at it today, the documentary side of the show is excellent. Geraldo's visited many places/buildings that is long gone, and were able to interview many people who lived in the Capone era, who were still alive in 1986. Its a good watch if you want to hear about the old mobsters back in 1920 Chicago, told by people that lived the era, even if the vault findings is a let down.

Rivera is such an idiot
TheFearmakers8 April 2021
The funniest part of this trainwreck is not just Rivera finding nothing but dirt in Al Capone's vault, which wasn't even a vault most likely, but when he found nothing but a bottle, and then claimed "It's probably illegal bathtub gin," training, till the last minute, to act as if he really found something.... What a dolt.

That self-aggrandizing bignosed loudmouth got the best comeuppance ever - before an audience of purported millions, as in Super Bowl 42 (2008). Barnum must've been wrinkling his wings ROFLOL at that less than impressive reveal. His "career," such as it was, dragged out with his own yawner of a talk show before it tanked under the weight of (easily) better quality productions. In fact, like the similar braying T. Moran, D. A. Brums & V. Politano, I'd happily forgotten about that blow soft until recently, when to my horror I discovered all of these cretins were resurrected - & Rivera's creaky carcass was shoved in front of the cameras for the wince-inducing Murder in the Family, where he shouted like a deaf man at "what few of them are left" watching that junk. This reinvented raving republican - his real name is "Gerald!" - will hopefully hence be confined to that fringe "news" outfit f-o-x, which is exactly where he belongs, & not unearthing anymore vaults - until, that is, he's the star un-attraction of his own.
