Lost Treasures of the Maya

What a shambles, they somehow managed to make some of the most interesting discoveries and topics and turn them into some terrible reality TV show. Between the corny script that included lines like "let's check it out" and endless shots of guys waving their hands about in the air on front a screen like something out of an avengers movie I was genuinely wondering if they were gonna cut the red or the blue wire when the countdown for the jungle being blown up inevitably starts.

It was more of an action reel for the commentator guy than it was a documentary on the Mayan jungle and the people that lived there.

But hey at least I know everything there is to know about the latest and greatest, pioneering technology, the one and only LiDAR. What's the point in having such great tech if everytime you discover something with it you have to include a 20 minute advertisement along with it, because thats the only reasonable explanation I can think of as to why they did this in every episode.

There isn't much to see. An advert for Lidar disguised as a mostly boring documentary.

Disappointed.. Interesting subject, but it's very repetitive and therefore gets very boring.

You were great Albert Lin! Hell, I'll give you props just because you can still move like that with one leg brother. I watched all your documentaries and loved your perspectives and tech you used to analyze those questionable finds. All these other people are just haters and drink that haterade. Keep improving, keep your chin-up, keep moving forward, and keep them coming! Seems to me like there's a bunch of Karen's on here.

If I had £1 for every time we're shown a map and told about the most amazing lidar map technology, then I would be a very wealthy man.

Over 4 episodes they find next to nothing and the same footage is repeatedly used. This mini series is a total waste of time and I'm giving this a very fair 5 star rating.

Don't watch this and expect a great reveal or to learn much at all. With every episode I found myself getting more annoyed by the consistently re-used footage and constant mentioning of lidar.

I don't usually write reviews but I've got to warn people about this series. It's a total waste of time.
