The Curse of Oak Island

Has anyone else started watching this show? I am a sucker for this kind of thing and so far it has been very interesting. You can watch the first two episodes in the link below. Since this was filmed over the summer, if any of you have figured out what happens please use spoilers for anything that hasn't aired yet.

http://www.history.com/shows/the-curse-of-oak-island

For those who aren't familiar, very briefly, it is about an island on the eastern shore of Canada that is rumored to have buried treasure from possibly the Knights Templar dating back to the 1300s. In 1795 an apparent secret hiding space was discovered in which levels of wooden planks were buried every 10 feet. Digging down around a hundred feet, they found some gold link chain and a few other things. Eventually they dug to a point that causes the hold to be flooded by sea water as if it was some sort of boobie trap, which is believed to come from some type of tube that is out in the ocean.

Another person in the 1970s dug alongside the original hole but also got his hole flooded by sea water. These guys now who are on the show purchased most of the island and are trying to solve the mystery with help from the guys who dug their own hole in the 1970s. The hole curse aspect is just kind of meh and I don't really pay attention to it, but I am sure the producers just like the added element it presents. The mystery and adventure is really interesting. It is nice to see a show like this that is actually producing some results so far.

Lol, I had a similar thought years ago. Basically, I told a buddy of mine "they should just get the crews from Gold Rush to look for the treasure. They'd probably find it in a couple weeks!!!"

People still think this thing is on the up and up. I watched part of the first season years ago and knew they would never find or be able to get to what they were looking for.
The one and only purpose of this show is the continuation of this show.

Whether or not they ever find something, it's still an entertaining show. It wouldn't be on the air after all these years if it wasn't.

It's not "whether or not." They'll never find the so-called treasure, which would defeat the purpose of the money-maker, the show.

They’ve found a lot of stuff no one ever would have thought was there. As such they’ve basically proven something happened there beyond known recorded history, with treasure very possibly being involved.
