Sadly Over-hyped

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

Red Zone lost? No because the Zone was already owned by another company.This group keeps "finding" new areas with gold or other valuable minerals but if you dig just a little bit with google, all the places they go has been examined by others. So all in all this is a fake show where they will never get a "claim" To see such a show on Discovery saddens me./Allan Come on Discovery, live up to you name.This stupid 10 line rule! I've seen much shorter reviews than mine and yet I am forced to write lots of irrelevant stuff yet again just to get it passed....annoying :/

The 5 minutes of actual prospecting is extremely interesting, but the 20 minutes of grown men acting like children is about as exciting as watching the Kardasians or the Beverly Hill Housewives or Honey Boo Boo.Get back to your geological prospecting and drop the childish scripted drama. I don't know if I can bring myself to watch another program which has so much potential, but delivers so little. I am a short termer, may not make it to the final episode.Looking for gold or other minerals using some scientific process can be exciting. The raw land they are exploring is exciting. Spending three shows devoted to arguments and dissension is unappealing to me. Stop scripting and start prospecting if you desire to keep this show alive.

I had started watching this series and was very interested in the show initially. There was some great information about Greenland, and prospecting, and the cast had done a reasonably good job in presentation. After watching into the second and third season, I am, to be honest, disappointed with the progress the show has made. The audience is treated like they have no intelligence and the extra "drama" and overdone emphasis on the "danger" that exists, well, we do not need it hammered into our heads. This has proved in itself to be a very scripted show. Nothing new is brought forward on the show, even in the interaction among the team, or in the actual expedition. It now is just fake and quite frankly an insult to watch as an audience member. I would have more respect for the cast and crew, and producers of the show, if they discussed more of the techniques, people's backgrounds, what do they actually do, take some time to get to know each of the individuals, maybe we could relate somehow to these people? (or are they just actors for hire? then say so). Maybe they could go over the actual map as to who has claims where? are they companies? countries? Which countries are actually there and for what target? It's hard to believe after 8-10 months of planning that there was not enough fuel to run the dredger. No one went though the check list? Difficult for the viewers to believe that mistake. The temper-tantrums amid the group is embarrassing to watch. How are we suppose to take this show seriously with these childish outbursts? Americo, and John are the worst there. These boys are really not qualified, assuming the show is honest about what they do for a living, to be on this type of expedition. The helicopter dropped off the first group and not one person stopped to look for the massive boxes for their camp before the helicopter took off leaving them stranded. Another slap in the face to the audience. Please, do not make another season of this. I implore you. It is really poorly done, poorly scripted, and quite honestly, embarrassing to admit I've watched it this far, but it's like watching a car accident when you have no control, and all you can do is hope for a descent outcome at the end. I have never written a review before, but I could not hold it in anymore and decided to express my opinion. You, the producers, have the tools to do a great job, but you dropped the ball on the one in a big way. Sorry guys.

can any one in there right mind say that this was a good production?????? it was laughable!! No content just walking around doing tests and samples the action was "watch for falling rocks" and nothing more than a few pebbles coming down the mountains....you are telling me that in the two months they were there in the last hour in all the rocks and the snow they just happen to stubble on loads of ruby's!!!!! nonsense I don't believe it..ITS IMPOSSIBLE it does not add up and everyone knows it...if I am wrong then I would have had to have been there to see it myself as the odds of just finding that on a island covered in snow I just don't buy it sorry!
