Lost Treasures of the Maya

There isn't much to see. An advert for Lidar disguised as a mostly boring documentary.

Literally half of every episode was repeating the exact same gushing rehash of the technology they used, which while revolutionary and absolutely deserving of mention, shouldn't have warranted the constant (and literally repeated word for word) coverage. Between that and constantly recapping what JUST happened almost entirely every time they switched location, there was only maybe 40-50% actual information/exploration and the rest felt like a tech commercial.

You were great Albert Lin! Hell, I'll give you props just because you can still move like that with one leg brother. I watched all your documentaries and loved your perspectives and tech you used to analyze those questionable finds. All these other people are just haters and drink that haterade. Keep improving, keep your chin-up, keep moving forward, and keep them coming! Seems to me like there's a bunch of Karen's on here.

This is enough material for 1 maybe 2 episodes. When is NG gonna stop doing this. Waste of time. No thanks.

What a shambles, they somehow managed to make some of the most interesting discoveries and topics and turn them into some terrible reality TV show. Between the corny script that included lines like "let's check it out" and endless shots of guys waving their hands about in the air on front a screen like something out of an avengers movie I was genuinely wondering if they were gonna cut the red or the blue wire when the countdown for the jungle being blown up inevitably starts.

It was more of an action reel for the commentator guy than it was a documentary on the Mayan jungle and the people that lived there.

But hey at least I know everything there is to know about the latest and greatest, pioneering technology, the one and only LiDAR. What's the point in having such great tech if everytime you discover something with it you have to include a 20 minute advertisement along with it, because thats the only reasonable explanation I can think of as to why they did this in every episode.
