Gold und Gier: Die Jagd nach Forrest Fenns Schatz

A not-put-together-very-well catalogue of how far some people went to find buried treasure in the hopes of improving their lives. Particularly the family of 3 men who spent two years trying to excavate a boulder. I couldn't watch them recount their experiences, but I couldn't look away either. Overall my heart was sad for them because you could actually feel their train-wreck determination, followed by the pit of despair.

Much was left unsaid, especially by the aloof family members of Forest Fenn. You couldn't help think they were full of BS.

Perhaps I dozed off with sheer frustration, but there is a big gap in the the facial-recognition guys offer being accepted by the auctioneers, to it not. Huh? Yet the dragon bracelet and other things were in HIS re-hide box? Wtf?

It was poorly filmed, and had many nut jobs akin to Tiger King. It's the kind of thing that by the end you want kick yourself for watching the whole thing.

The preview shows an exciting story of a stalker thinking the granddaughter was the treasure within the story. The first 2 episodes was a dull boring mess on people deciphering the clues... it is boring and not what I signed up for. Dull characters, how they guessed what the clues were. I came her for the stalker story and not people who keep failing at deciphering clues. It is a snore fest and recommend avoiding, unless you are intriguing about how people waste their lives on solving treasure clues, and are just not the smartest of individuals of an old man acting like a cat and playing with the mice. Never got to the episode about the stalker... it was not worth it.

An interesting docuseries about Forrest Fenn and his buried treasure in the Rocky Mountains. I have no problem with Mr. Fenn. He seems like a genuinely good person and I give him credit for the life he created for himself.

My problem is with the arrogant, mind-numbingly stupid people who call themselves treasure hunters. The ignorant hillbilly Hurst family. What a joke these people are. They really believe they're intelligent, important individuals. This couldn't be further from the truth. They thought Mr Fenn would leave them something in his wiland were crying when the lawyer said he had no idea who they are. The Hursts are the perfect representation of what's wrong with America. Too much ego, no brains.

The Meacham woman is basically an admitted whore. She's disgusting.

Justin Posey is a spoiled rich brat who surrounds himself with things to make him look smart, but unfortunately, his ego gets in the way, just like the others.

Good docuseries if you can stomach the ignorance and ego.

This show is one of the dumbest that I have ever seen. It's the new, "Tiger King". Characters that you love to hate but still watch. I felt embarrassed for almost everyone. And I had no knowledge of the entire thing.

It is an incredibly sad story. There are so many mentally ill people involved in this mess. It's also sad that media were all over this. They promoted the madness.

I can't say whether or not someone should watch this or not. If "Tiger King" intrigued you, then watch. It's a similar feel. And why in the world IMBD requires such long submissions is beyond me. Maybe not all shows need a lengthy review.

I started this thinking I'd get a quirky treasure hunt tv show. What I got was a front-row seat to the slow, painful meltdown of logic. People sobbing over rocks, detonating boulders like they're in a low-budget Bond movie, and treating vague poetry like gospel. I swear, every minute I watched, a brain cell packed its bags and left. This wasn't a hunt for treasure-it was a televised mass delusion. By the end, I needed a map just to find my will to live. If common sense was buried out there, nobody found it. But hey, at least now I know how not to read a poem. X marked the spot where sanity died.
