Blind Frog Ranch - Die Schatzsucher von Utah

I liked the first 2 episodes. Yes, they were kind of hokey and lame. But, they were enjoyable. Then it all went towards the staged stuff and paranormal stuff. I won't give away any spoilers. But the last few episodes have been more X-Files sort of stuff than treasure hunting. Were into season 2 now. Just finished the 2nd episode and we've got about 20 minutes of actual 'searching for treasure' and the rest is conspiracy theory mumbo jumbo. There was a suicide outside of their gate. Nothing to do with the show. But they're spending about 1/4th of the show investigating it. And they found some wooden timbers in an underground cave last season. This season they're making a borehole to drag them out. Why waste all that $$ on old logs? Why aren't they 'treasure searching' instead. I keep watching hoping they'll actually find something. But I'm not hopeful.

I mean it seems a bit cheesy, and so on, but it is very entertaining, and I like the mystery aspect real or not. It is not perfection by any means, but quite enjoyable to pass time. For those claiming it is all fake, I have seen LITERALLY the same few dozen guys make reviews on EVERY show similar to this, and say the same exact things. Semi Trolling all shows, makes me think they really did not WANT to like it.

So take a gold prospecting treasure seeking show and pretend your doing it on a type of paranormal hot spot . They actually setup game cameras and some local pretended to be shape shifting into Skinwalker . They actually put this in the show and expect people to believe it . It's a fake reality show for entertainment purposes .Circus folk with a budget.

Update season 3 has some fun moments . Regardless of fake or not it season 3 has some pretty fun entertainment . A prehistoric snake , quick sand , poachers ,.. definately fun.kinda stuff guys like technology and exploring and adventure .

I have been in mining for years and that was the cleanest mine I have ever seen. The floor was perfectly flat. Never in an underground mine will that occur. No rocks piled along the rib or sides of the mine. After 50, 60 100 years a mine will sluff off material which piles up along the ribs. The back or top of the mine will drop material too. It all lays on the floor. Finally, when you use explosives to break rocks, they are jagged and rough. If you use a pick ax you strike from top to bottom. I saw something that looked like claw marks going to the side. Finally, in a mine that was first newly opened you blow a lot of air into that mine. Air it out. You never enter a mine that probably has black damp or poison air.

Look up pictures of old mine drifts. All fake.

This show plays off of the fame of Skinwalker Ranch, which is a superb show, by the way, but this show comes in from a very different tack. It's way less scientific and ecologically considerate, with some different mysteries connected to the location, as well as some similar phenomena, and the excitement of poachers, thieves and spies. I find it to be a satisfying continuation of a show I cannot get enough of (Skinwalker), but a zanier version. I call it the "Hillbilly Version of Skinwalker" when I describe it to others I'm recommending it to. The accredited professionals they have aiding their search on this show are real and serious about what they do. I believe there is credence in this show, the history, and their quest; it's just different. If you don't like it, so be it, spare us your rantings.
