Don't get me wrong, I love Oak Island. But for the last 2-3 years they've found close to nothing, and all the air time is taken up by their "more-than-annoying" narrator. I'm this show, they find stuff, there are legitimate sources and discoveries. They are bad actors, which is amazing! Because it makes it possible to tell how real it is. The acting is kept to an extraordinary minimal and even if what they find doesn't help them, at least they found something! The mystery part of it keeps me on the edge of my seat, and the historical part makes me want to learn more about WWII.
Over all, desperately hoping for a 3rd season! Love this show so much!!

If it weren't for the history channel, we wouldn't have any opportunities as viewers to be part of the missions to find lost treasure, unless of course you're a treasure hunter, which most of us are not. So, thank you History channel, the only channel to go go above and beyond on trying to locate these artifacts of history.
Like any treasure hunt, there's never a garauntee that the 'lost' treasure will be found. However; the possibility in this location obviously exists and John and his crew are doing a fantastic job trying to use their experience with engraved markers, caves, and landmarks like the pyramid rock to find this treasure. They must be real close.

There is about 20 minutes of actual 'factual' information in the entire series. The rest is bullsh**ters playing make believe with every bit of rock they find. Like they want it to be like Indiana Jones with water traps, cyanide bombs and the like but just made up. "I don't want to dig here because I've got a bad feeling about it...." Utter nonsense.

I have been enjoying the show. Second season cast did not seem as sharp as first. Don't know what happened unless they understandably got scared.
This is the kind of show that appeals to guys. There is military, treasure, cool new toys for a treasure hunt.
It gets tiresome every episode they feel they need to review several times for new watchers perhaps. It gets old and cuts into new episode viewing time. If new watcher are interested let them go back and binge watch until they are current. You don't have to bring everyone current every episode.

Boring, Boring, Boring!!!
To enjoy driving a Ferrari, it is NOT necessary to begin by touring the quarry from where the metal was mined to cast the engine block! If there is any validity at all to Yamashita's treasure, then start us from a point of interest, not an entire season of a bunch of ppl with their thumbs up! The History Channel has once again demonstrated that they have absolutely NO RESPECT for their viewers time!

I removed 2 stars because the narrative repeats over an over the previous content and it becomes annoying. The 8 stars is for the nice filming, the seriousness of the team, and for asking the right questions and taking the right decisions most of the time. The are professionals and you can feel it. It takes guts to search for treasures in a place like that. They put their lives at risk.
So in a 1 hour episode they spend the first 20 minutes recapping what happened in the last episode. Then we have 25 more minutes of them discussing amongst themselves what to do next all the while fumbling over each other. Then they show a tunnel and that's it. 9 episodes to get to here. Really?
I recommend that they hire professional archeologists to dig this site. Even Josh Gates can do a better job LOL.

I personally find this show completely unbelievable. The 'cast' appear to be very amateur actors, with lines fed to them ahead of time. It seems shows like this are there just to generate advertising dollars, by using tidbits of actual historical fact, with loads of 'fillers' to make their show seem feasible. Well, we've seen so many of these now, we aren't falling for it anymore. My DVR has more available space for recording now, since this has been removed.
I have to go now. I found three scratched rocks in a field, and I think a confederate-era Sasquatch is buried in the center of the triangulation with Hitlers looted treasure. Or Templar Treasure. Or Roman, Pirate, Japanese, Chinese, Viking, or could it be..... Aliens? And of course the answer is Yes!.
2-stars, only because I'm sure there were a lot of mosquitoes onsite.

Im a filipino and this is the only way to uncover the truth behind the yamashita treasure. The discovery of a treasures and other treasures that hasn't uncover yet. Not only the history of world war and the gold with in but this the history of the Philippine treasure. I hope there is a season 3 for the next treasure hunting in another treasure site. Thank you.

I rate this show a TEN!
This TV show tells a lot about World War II that a lot of people are starting to forget. My grandfather was a US Army intelligence officer during World War II in the Pacific Theater and I remember him telling us a lot of good things about the Philippines and it's people. He brought the whole family there years and years ago when I was still in grade school.
We spent a few days in Makati but mostly in Northern Luzon where my grandfather met with his former comrades. He and his comrades spent a lot of time in the mountains while the rest of the family stayed in the city enjoying the scenery and the people. Yes! Those people are great!
I know that this is just a TV show but I can relate to the show's story and get me hooked to see what's next.
I like Peter and John. They seem to know what they are doing but keeps me thinking as they seldom say definite statements. It's more of a question than a matter of fact.
I also like their Military Medic Manny. He seemed cautious but appears to know what he is doing. It reminded me of my grandfather's Filipino comrades, they were silent most of the time but dependable when the need arise. My grandfather told me that his Filipino comrades saved his life a number of times. I also like Jeremy, he seems pretty strong and jolly. I also like Bingo. He seems intelligent. He looks Filipino but perhaps grew up here in the States.
All in all, I highly recommend this show. No need to take the show too seriously. Just a TV show to watch every Tuesday night with a cold beer in hand. Namaste!

If you have ever lived outside of USA then you would really appreciate this show and the effort they made to produce this. Can you even imagine how they have to negotiate with the local and government cartels. I shutter when I think of the large sums of money they pay to them just to film this. And that is not all....they are all risking their lives looking for this treasure. If they find it....who will take it from them? Because they will never let them keep it. It's very exciting to watch and highly entertaining!!! 10 Stars all the way. I also am hoping there will be at least 10 more seasons of this show.

Watched only the finale episode 2021, filmed 2019. Similar to another time waster about old English galleons carrying treasure. Again had they discovered anything worthwhile you would have heard about it long before these TV series are broadcast.

Absolutely crap! Over weight, sweating, rich Americans looking for a treasure that they will never find. While destroying a recovering rich and diversified environment!

I used to work in the hills around Clark AFB 1996-98. I explored many tunnels. I was a long was from being the first ! Many US service personnel went souvenir hunting over the decades. The gold that was there is mostly gone. TheJapanese would not have made it so difficult that they could not easily get to it. Like Oak Island, it is rubbish, generating interest for people with no idea a out the subject. Fictional drama. And they are tearing up the land.

The entire show is very obviously scripted. They go back and forth between 3-4 "sites" looking at BS carvings on random but very obvious rock faces that look very deliberately put there for tv. The best part is they never find anything 😂 why even make the show? Complete waste of time to watch as a viewer.

The leaps of logic these guys take to "connect the dots" are laughable at best. Bunch of snake oil salesmen.

The premise of this show is quite comical actually. Any person with any understanding of WWII history knows that this treasure is long gone. It was found by the United States CIA within a couple weeks of the Japanese surrender in Luzon Phillipines. I am curious as to how many millions or billions in gold and gems were actually recovered however this touchy subject has been a very well kept secret by our government. If this group is really under the belief that they will find great treasure they are foolish. i suspect that they are only there to try and find a few scraps. I am watching only to see if they are able to uncover the truth that the US CIA recovered the treasure many decades ago which created incredible wealth for our country at the expense of all the countries who had it stolen by the Japanese during WWII. It does amaze me that our CIA has been able to hide this billion dollar boost to our country.

Worse than Oak Island for recaps. Probably <10 minutes in each programme that's worth watching. I'll just wait and have a look at the last episode of any more series.
