Treasure Quest: Snake Island

I normally enjoy this type of show. Season one was ok but season two is verging on stupidity with the staging of events.

If anyone was to believe half the pish they talk and the scenarios. They need thier heads checked.

A show which clearly jumps to the most (il)logical conclusion that ANYTHING found on the island MUST be related to hiding treasure (as opposed to the thousand of other more practical reasons), is made for the idiots who believe it. The saddest thing is that budding archaeological aficionados (like my 6 year olds) may believe that this is how science and theory works - fitting every finding to your conclusions.

As far as filming goes, it's godawfully slow, with implied cliffhangers before every commercial and way too much recapping, to hide the lack of content. All the stars are probably interesting in their own rite, but are cheapened by the inauthenticity of the program.

Utterly flawed, if not entertaining for that very reason.

Have a little self-respect Discovery Channel.

An absolutely terrible show. The Legend of Croc Gold was another horrid gold show and this is no better. Fake. Made up drama. Scripted parts. Too much recap and very little substance. "Experts" behaving like idiots and assuming that the audience is naive and gullible.

Don't waste your time. There are better gold shows (Gold Rush, Bering Sea Gold, White Water, etc. all are/have become pretty formulaic but they're still miles ahead of this drivel).

As a brazillian, this is actually the first time i was bothered enough to write a review! First of all, the island is 30km away from the beaches of São Paulo and there are no pirates whatsoever in the área. We keep our crimes inland! The island is run by the navy and although inhabitable, there are plenty of biologists and scientists that work there, with navy's approval! I get u have to tune things up to make good tv, but that was a bit over the top!

Don't waste your time on this one. It even gets a lot worse after season 1. There's an interesting story behind season 1&2 and another behind season 3 but that's it. There are fake treasure hunting professionals involved as well.
