Legend of the Superstition Mountains

I was born & Raised outside of Apache Jct where the Superstition Mountains are. Never have I ever heard of people being beheaded. It must not be too dangerous considering the fact that thousands of school kids hike the "Supes" as they are know as to locals. Whats with the idiot out of state former cop always shooting snakes. Listen moron, People who live in the desert do not kill snakes unless as a last resort. The Apache Helicopters - The Boeing Plant that manufactures the Apache is 10 miles away. It's a test flight path around the Supes. They always fly there, so called restrictive air space all lies.

I can't believe that the producers of this show actually thing people are so gullible to believe this garbage TV.

Why did the crew stop after only six episodes? Did one of key participants die or just decided enough was enough after bat guano? I was involved deeply into last episode 6, I believe because of decision to go up that ladder into the old gold mine covered in bat guano. I felt the fear of the guy that climbed up the ladder. Because I felt it, too! Lots of silly questions that don't make sense to keep my interest and watch all six episodes. Cray cray!

I find this show extremely interesting but likely not for the reason most other people who liked it do. I think this is an interesting look into the motivations and mindset behind adults who never learn to think critically and lack a firm scientific education. These people constantly buy into misinformation and legend and come up with some truly wacky ideas. The dowsing rods, the paranoia, the confirmation bias, the pareidolia. It truly is an interesting insight into the minds of people who are delusional but not the point of being a danger to society or being classified as 'mentally ill'. A sort of 'monomania' as they would have said in the 1800s. How much does anyone want to bet that these guys are all conservative? Unlike others, I don't believe this is contrived or fake. I think these guys truly do believe what they're saying and they are full of conviction for their cause. The problem is that they lack critical thinking skills.

The program is entertaining. Truth or writers taking leave way it doesn't matter. I'll still watch if it is renewed. Also, the remarks concerning 'The Curse of Oak Island' is way off base. You need to go to Oak Island do the research look around and talk to the brothers. I wonder how many people would spend over 3 million dollars of their OWN money to try and fool those who watch the program. Use your head and go there. You will have a different outlook after doing your homework. It could also be said that you could do the same type of research on 'The Legends of Superstition Mountain' and you might come out with a different attitude also. The known errors or misrepresentations from the writers of this show could be proved so as to clear up the water so to speak. But all in all, it is still an intriguing myth/legend. Relax and chill, you may find out you could actually be entertained. Please bring back the show!!!

This comes off as 100 percent contrived with poor acting and a script desperate to fill time. One tends to think that it was written by the same people who brought us Al Capone's vault with Geraldo Rivera. It would have been far better if they didn't script the presentation. They have a good subject. All they had to do was present the facts and show the incredible landscape then it would have been interesting. Their attempt to jump on the "reality show" band wagon is where their problems begin. Not all information is suited to be presented in a reality show format. Sound research and a linear/historical presentation of this information would have made for a far better show.
