Mysteries to me are always interesting, did Hitler die or escape, it seems that the information about his death was never proved 100%. If the government Knew or thought with out much doubt that he did die why were they still looking? But this makes for a great mystery research everything don't just take what you have been taught in history books and in school as a lot of what our schools teach is not the truth. The places and names and countries they go to, the people they talk to and even the ones who don't want to talk or are afraid too says something. If one will look up the places where they go and do their own research will find that there are still a lot who agreed with Hitler and would hide him. If one will look up Dignidad/ Villa Baviera Chile which it is known today even today there is a lot that is not right and what had/has went on there has been recent.
I believe that I am better versed on the history of WWII than most. However I am amazed at the extent of the Nazi network and infrastructure this program has uncovered in South America. The so called Rat Lines in South America that Hitler's high command developed would cost 100's of millions to replicate today. So even if you accept the orthodoxy of Hitler's suicide in Berlin in 1945 this show is still very interesting and well worth watching.
This is why there is 'hate' on this show...
The topic is very interesting and very plausible. The problem is that it could have been covered in half the time or less. Why rehash all the info you just told me when you return from commercial....ugh. And can it be any more sensationalized? Just cover the story. And the cast of characters think they are going for an academy award. Borderline annnoying.
Good background noise while possibly learning something. ;)

Hunting Hitler really was fascinating overall, though I could have done without some of the ever present dramatic sound effects whenever a new light was shined on something from the past in uncovered FBI files which would help complete the puzzle they were all working together on for years. "Da da!" the sound effects would go, as the researchers would look at each other meaningfully and say "This is huge!" I would have preferred a more studious simplicity to it all. Intelligent people don't NEED sound effects and pregnant pauses and meaningful, knowing looks, nor do they need to hear the Lord's name taken in vain multiple times when new discoveries were made. Just the facts, please. :)
I think they should have started the documentary where they ended up: Germany, and the escape routes for the vicious Nazis escaping the Allies, places in Germany itself, Norway, Spain, Rome, instead of jumping immediately into South American countries like they did. If those were the last living places for Hitler they should have gotten there in a more linear fashion, rather than jumping around in a sometimes confusing patchwork of places that did not have had any real meaning at all in the grand scheme of things.
I enjoyed it overall, but also having a FORMER FBI guy interviewed at the end, instead of someone working for them TODAY in a head capacity, doesn't mean much. Opinions are opinions. Facts are facts. There never was a body of Hitler recovered. The Soviets covered up a lot and so did the USA. No forensic evidence whatsoever available that this heinous mass murderer ever died in that bunker. My own father was in the 82nd Airborne Division and saw the pit where Hitler's body was supposed to have been burned by the Soviets. He said that only three weeks later there was grass growing back in that pit. Highly unlikely, he said to me years ago, after starting a gasoline fire in a pit, that grass would grow that quickly. "I've always doubted Hitler killed himself in that bunker."
Bottom line: the Allies FAILED to catch him, and then covered up mountains of evidence that he escaped to try and plan a future "Fourth Reich" in another part of the world closer to America in an attempt to destroy her. While Hitler failed to destroy America back then, today we still have his closet henchmen - and women - doing his evil, devious, National Socialist propaganda under the name of modern socialism in America - in our media, in the DNC and many RINOs, and in shady political organizations which seek to cause division among Americans and destroy her from within.
There could possibly be a fourth season of this documentary, but it would be totally remiss if it didn't cover what is taking place today politically that had its origins in the sick National Socialist mind of Adolf Hitler.

The first part was interessting but at the moment i took Google maps beside it the lies came out and were an eyeopener!!
The greatest mistake in my point of view is Season 2 episode 5 at the beginning. A view of a port named Cádiz! But is it no it is Gibraltar Avenue de espana! Next view very short but by holding the recording you see something special that is not in Cádiz! The rock of Gibraltar! Then the next views................Hotel Reina Cristina! In Cádiz? Nope in Taifa Algeciras directly oposite of the Rock!
If you like the trueth don't watch this show!

- TriviaEven though world renowned historian James Holland appears throughout Seasons 2-3, James has stated on his Podcast "We Have Ways of Making You Talk" that he agreed to do the project only as long as he wasn't forced to say or imply that Hitler really escaped the Bunker and didn't commit suicide. He also stated that doing this project helped him fund his research for his current book (as of 2020) "Sicily '43" .
