jjohnson-06379 One would figure with all these high-end producers, writers and researchers that in this day and age we could get some quality TV.I'm a history buff but what bother's me more is when a story (and anyone's idea home much truth there is in the story), is placed in front of me with so much fabrication rather than known facts.Taking a TV crew to Europe to answer a couple of questions.Search for the lost giants had to be the worst, so far. Near the end of the series they come so close to what the answers are/were that they dropped the ball right then and there, kind of like a cliff- hanger, sort of taunting people to come back for more later only to find out much later, that the show we watched was the last show and no answers or result were being provided. In other words the concept might have had a flake of truth but there was no real brain power, not to mention any sacred ground and permits. Roanoke was another blunder and so might be Curse of Oak Island. These stories keep getting stretched out over time and yield no results. The build up before the series is quite intense and worded in such a way that we're led to believe that these historic discoveries are real. Scot Wolter? Trying finding him online as a forensic geologist. His convincing manner and tone leads us to want to believe and the masses get sucked in. As fir oak Island I don't believe 90% of what is told, too many actors and staged events. There's little-to-no followup on any discovery or mini find. They find a teeny bit of something and then move on. That is the one constant in all of these shows "teasers"Those ghost shows? I followed one of those ghost shows once just for fun because I don't believe in such things but it was fun to see what BS they could provide. Again, after the discovered something, usually all CGI, then right after commercial they move on to something else and never do talk about that discovered tidbit Oak Island is now doing thisWhat's really sad.. The actually history channel lacks talent and it seems that people are enamored with convincing BS and commercials that pave the way. H2 is a little better and AHC has actual footage as does NatGeo.. History channel please clean up your act and give us decent programming of REAL. As for entertainment value it's okay, but if you're a history buff and seeking some facts, it's best to turn to books

ghosthuntingtheories I have been waiting for The History Channel to dive into the ancient giants subject and these brothers are serious about the subject and tenacious. There are no "reality" hokey posing and scripting. They don't seem to know or care the cameras are there which is very refreshing. They chase after cases that have interesting supporting evidence and they are willing to go anywhere and do anything to answer this puzzle. It is well edited, very nicely put together for those of us seeking knowledge and wishing to go along on the adventure. I am sincerely hoping The History Channel picks this up again, as they dropped "Monsterquest" and "UFO Hunters" which were two other nicely done shows. I look forward to see where brothers go next and what they find. They get closer and closer to proving this giant race.

Jasminekitty i really had never heard of the concept of giant Americans. The show was thought provoking and I did not miss an episode.The story is of two brothers who put their lives on hold and followed a quest. They are not scientists, but manage to find enough evidence to sway my opinion that there were Giants in America. Recently a new type of hominid was found in Russia. So, anything is possible.The best part of the series is that the two brothers are average Americans and proved that you do not need to be an educated professional to uncover history.Watch the series and judge for yourself.I would love a season 2.

mackaat 2 brothers who have never learned scientific methods of investigation, AND who believe that stories in hundred year old local newspapers are always true.These guys SHOULD team up with the Oak Island guys, AND Scott Wolter, they really are birds of a feather.Stories are often fragmented so badly you can't easily follow them, and often claims are made and then never revealed as to their conclusions, and the conclusions are usually nonsensical and even outrageously bad science.It seems that these brothers have more money than sense, and are having FAR too much fun at jerking the viewers around, and have no real hope of ever finding anything significant or newsworthy.
