Finding Escobar's Millions

A "one" star, because zeroes are not allowed.

Two incompetent, bumbling, naiive, *gullible* fools that quite obviously don't know what they're doing...and I'm very dubious about what capacity they had with their proclaimed employment of "former CIA agents".

How likely is this, dear viewer: "Hey, buddy - we're from the US of A, here to search Escobar's old properties for buried money and other treasures that everyone else missed. Can you help us? Oh, you can?! Thanks! I have a good feeling about this!" ...LOL! Okay, yeah....because the locals wouldn't think of searching for anything, themselves.

How likely is it that if there was a sincere hope of success of finding anything, the governments - even local governments, wouldn't have a representative on hand to make sure the government seized it?

And, who would finance such a moronic show?!

I'll bet the locals are still laughing at them! "They keep digging up our garbage!" ha hahaa! "Oh, look, they found the foundation of the old farm house!" ho hohoho! Only the cows at several of the dig sites looked more unimpressed by this show than I was.

The worst part of this series is that on ep 6 they indicated that they're going to Mexico, next season.....NNNOOOOOoooooooooo...!

Here's a tip for a better chance of success for finding treasure, boys - either look for dropped coins on the sidewalks of New York, or go back to Chicago and re-search Capone's vault. I'm sure Geraldo missed something!

So here they spend a lot of time recaps and trying to make their searches exciting... it fails every episode

By now you know, any documentary produced by mainstream media follows the exact same formula to the DOT. I mean even the soundtrack is something we have heard over a hundred times on very similar shows.

Endless repeats of the same footage, continuous recapping of the story in order to save production expenses and extend airtime. A sad, overused and quite anoying way to produce documentaries...

Why two ex-CIA guys are responsible for the search is pure show. They never ever come across a situation where their skills or training produce better intel than what a common human, with average IQ, would be able to find.

The saddest thing is that if the producers would have done their homework and researched the places these "spies" combed through; a lot of history, wonderful tales and extraordinary footage could have been shown...

Too sad Discovery is getting lazy, repetitive and "creativeless". Then again that is why I precisely stopped watching TV over 5 years ago. An industry grown lazy and unmotivated...

Watch only if the snow blizzard in your hometown leaves you stranded for weeks and you got tired of playing Monopoly.

So the budget for this show must be around $50. It consists of three buddies who act like they are very investigative, and can get a library card. They talk to the camera, and explain all of the amazing evidence they have discovered of Pablo Escobar's 156 kilos of gold bars that are buried somewhere in Mexico.

Most of the show consists of these losers talking to each other in their apartment, about their "investigation" into the hidden treasure of Pablo Escobar, and who they talked to about it.

No actual video of the investigations, but apparently these clowns are confident that they will find the gold soon, since nobody else knows about it. How did this garbage get on TV? ... Wow... What... Utter... Crap.

What can I say. I've watched the first 5 episodes. All of which could quote easily be summarised in one episode if they cut out all of the repeated footage around advert breaks. If this was a decent English documentary like finding the Roman treasures in national geographic. Cut out off of the crap. They find what they need to find. No false suspense and waiting till the next episode.

Gone are the days when a documentary didn't have to appeal to someone with a single digit iq
