I'm watching it now. I hope they have more luck than the Laginas on Oak Island...

Bump. Decent thread subject, just overshadowed by the events of yesterday. Deserves a look.

Has there ever been a show with more hype, more fake drama, and less results than Oak Island? I can't believe people still watch that - but the brothers thank everyone for making them rich.

Someone needs to die for them to find the treasure, that would make the 7 they always talk about.... so shoot one of them and get it over with.

That works. I hadn't watched it in years and didn't know it was still on until I turned on the TV in a hotel room a few weeks ago and was flipping through channels. Turns out it's been on for 10 years and they haven't found shit, but they've gotten stupid rich from the show.

Was it sitting on blocks, missing the engines, propellers, and all the electronic gear inside? Periscope stolen to sell for brass scrap?

I still watch it, mostly for the newer tech devices/machines they are using. But I only watch if recorded. The last 3 seasons... they have a lot of repeat scenes; I can skip almost half the show now and not miss anything new.
