Ok, so the idea here is to tell interesting, mysterious tales of items unearthed, mainly by run of the mill people digging in their own back yards, so to speak. The stories and the "treasures" have been covered by other shows over the years, but some are cool and worth another look, and others you might never have seen at all, so I believe they are worth telling again.
The problem with this comes how the stories are told. You have a host, Danny Trejo, and you have a narrator, but you also have 30+ other people (actors, historians, Jeopardy game show contestants, etc.), and 4 or 5 of them read 3 to 5 sentences each during each segment. None of these guests seem to have any relationship to the story; they're just reading off a few facts. I'm not sure why the camera needs to be filming the special guests at all, since they aren't part of the mystery, and apparently the producers know that looking at the special guests is boring, so they shoot each guest, as they're talking, from the point of view of the top of their heads, or from the side, and occasionally with the guest looking into the camera. I'm not sure if they think it's artistic or not, but it's just weird. I can usually make it through each episode, but I do fast-forward thru the host and guests because I find the format so peculiar.
Typically, they only shoot Danny from two directions; looking into the camera, and from the side when he's looking into a different camera (maybe?). Either way, Danny doesn't have many lines or discuss many "mysteries", and his camera angles are just weird too.
I think this show is a cookie-cutter version of "The Unbelievable with Dan Akroyd". Both of these shows (and I can think of a couple others almost identical) would be much better with 1 or 2 experts discussing each segment, or 1 expert discussing each segment with the host.
