The Curse of Oak Island

I don’t really understand this sentiment. There has never been a guarantee they would find anything at all, much less actual treasure. I cannot think of another search or mystery like this that has ever been so thoroughly pursued in both time and money. They are genuinely doing their best to uncover the truth and I can’t get mad or upset about the results given it’s not really up to them if they find treasure. If they can at least uncover more evidence and shed more light on the who, the when, and the why that will still be pretty cool to me. That said, they are finding way more than I think people would have guessed and in my opinion are proving that at some point in the distant past something occurred there in secret involving treasure of some kind. And I think that’s pretty neat given these types of mysteries almost never get even this amount of evidence. Unfortunately I still don’t think they’ll find any sort of large treasure in the traditional sense. I think there was something there at some point and it got discovered by different people such as Samuel Ball and the original searchers. Don’t forget that one of the descendants of the original searchers has a very crude looking solid gold cross. Her ancestor and the others probably found something and over the decades it disappeared for the most part. Now in this episode tonight and the teaser for next week shows quite the construction of wood in Smith’s cove. Given what appears to be a large project in the past it’s no surprise someone might have lost their cross while building it. Last edited by mr. tegu; 01-08-2019 at 11:30 PM.. |

It's incredibly odd that they decided to take a trip to France to see those Knight's Templar drawings and then BAM! Templar cross just as the one they saw on the wall.
It was an odd, out of place turn of events when the trip occurred. Seemed completely random and for what reason? Seemingly, the only reason for the trip was to confirm what they found in a later episode. Smells fishy.

The fact that Jack Begley has on the same shirt in every episode tells me it was all filmed over a weekend.

Have you watched the supposed stone find episode yet? Remember them searching for it long ago and the search seemed very boring and pointless in a basically empty basement? Now they magically found it in a separate part of the basement they didn't show us going into last time. It's as if they found it, or knew it was there the whole time, but didn't show us because they needed time for testing to be done in order to have the results in hand for a later episode. If I wasn't interested in the actual historical content, this show would completely blow. |

I don’t really see it as a problem that they found the cross and wanted to add more weight to it. They could have simply found it, then went and looked at something similar (in TV time) and the result is still the same in that they have an old cross from Europe. It’s not necessary to present it how they did but it doesn’t really bother me. I don’t agree on the stone since that was across different seasons. I think they genuinely didn’t realize how much basement needed to be searched. Regarding the stone it’s clearly the one from the 1900s, but I’m doubtful it’s one from the money pit. |

They're still digging down that rabbit hole? And people are still getting suckered in? ...
If they'd just bring in Nick Cage next season, they'd blow this sucker wide open...

How the hell are people still buying into this show? Those mother****ers are probably planting stuff so that people keep watching. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, people watch that Finding Bigfoot or whatever its called. Nothing will ever be found on that show.

I watch this show and I watched Finding Bigfoot. Did I think they were/are going to find anything? No. It was simply entertaining to me. I thought Finding Bigfoot was hilarious because of the shit they said that was definitively a bigfoot answering their howls or knocks. I watch stuff on the history channel to, get this.... learn things about history because its entertaining. Theres a bunch of stuff I've learned that have nothing to do with treasure from The Curse of Oak Island. |

To me at least, watching Oak Island is almost like watching Ancient Aliens.

Smith’s cove is certainly interesting. Again they keep finding things that are just out of place and point to something happening there, though what exactly may never be known.
