Cooper's Treasure: Un trésor vu de l'espace

How many times do you have to see the same footage from space, of maps, of his face, repeating and repeating the same things over and over? It's amazing that this is on the air at all. There is no excitement, tension, and most importantly, no pay off at the end of each episode, or even at the end or the season. It really stinks!

Didn't think it was possible but there IS a worse show than Oak Island. Why does Discovery make such horrible reality shows. Condense each season to 2 shows and cut out the crap and re-run scenes. All this info is already available on the internet. Didn't think it was possible but there IS a worse show than Oak Island. Why does Discovery make such horrible reality shows.

Spaceflight historians and program veterans have serious problems with the fundamental premises of this show. They say there never was such a sensor on Mercury-9, there never was the slightest justification of putting such a sensor on it when airplanes could carry the sensor more effectively and cheaply, that Cooper only took a few dozen photos of the surface -- none at all over the Caribbean == that there was no way an astronaut looking out the window could accurately log latitude/longitude of anything he saw, and no way that Cooper could or would keep secret notes from the flight without NASA's knowledge. Otherwise, enjoy the show.

It is yet another over-glorified, over-hyped reality TV show. What else would you expect from Discovery network?

As others have mentioned, you could easily condense the content into 1 or 2 episodes. There is so much repetition, that I feel like I'm being taken on an 'idiot ride' and I can't take any of it seriously. Especially the mapping from space, using such old technology to detect underwater objects from very far away, while traveling at high velocity.

Search for written documentation instead of this time-wasting trash and watch something else on NatGeo, for example.

Can't click the 'spoilers' button, because there are no spoilers.

This is about 15 or 20 minutes of total material, spread over 8 episodes. There is all kinds of fake drama (clearly faked, how do you surprise your dad when 2 or 3 guys with cameras walk in). Nothing exciting, nothing gets found, it's just boring. The 10 minutes of the 20 that are dedicated to Gordon Cooper are kind of cool. But you see that in the first episode. The other 7 episodes each add about 1 minute of new material, and rehash for the other roughly 39 minutes of show (discounting the 20 minutes of commercials).

I wish everyone would refuse to watch this so they stop making these kind of shows. This should have been a 1 episode documentary, nothing else.

People giving this a positive review are nothing more than fake reviews to get the ratings up.
