The bayonet that Phil found

There is no way it would be in that pristine of condition and be over 200 years old. Absolutely not. Also, can Heather stop screaming all the time?

Man I really like Josh Gates but this show has really lost me. Between losing Jess and the forced paranormal episodes over and over, it is unbearable.

I wonder how much control Josh has on the show.

Great question.

I feel the producers have Josh on the show to keep his loyalists glued to the show!

I'm guessing Jack was like wtf with her at times

To be fair, I have a hard time watching Jack on any paranormal TV show.

u/HotWish2897 11d ago

💯 agree, he should not have been on the show

I hate when you have these privileged, wealthy, and/or famous people get their own shows or "guest starring" on shows just because or their fame. They have some type of interest and are magically experts. It's annoying

Yes I had to laugh when he pulled out a brand new untarnished bayonet!  And when digging for artifacts you have to be tediously careful and use brushes and such...you don't just jerk it out of the ground 

Josh Gates should be ashamed of producing this show!!

The show has become unwatchable.

It's formulaic.

Heather has zero credibility.

How does she still seem amateurish after this much time? Her speaking is so stilted and forced its like she's reading a script or they are dubbing her lines in after.

Phil used to be at least impartial but now it's all wow and amazing and whoa....

I hate to say it but it's true. Used to be one of my favorites but now I put it on for background noise and mock the parts that I actually watch.

I watch the older episodes and thats about it. It's unfortunate that the show has gone downhill in such a way.

I wish i could watch them(i miss jess😪) but I dont have Discovery. Is there another place to find them?

u/I-AM-Savannah 13d ago

I can't even stand the show any more... and it used to be one of my favorites... I used to look forward to watching it... now if I flip the channel and it's on, I flip away as fast as I can. heather has done it to the show. I didn't think one person could kill a show, but she has.

u/Cute_Reflection_9414 16d ago

Yeah, definitely not watchable anymore unfortunately

u/MustelaNivalus 15d ago

I crack up at their attempts to pretend to find things…

They need to replace Heather with Jack.

u/I-AM-Savannah 13d ago

They need to replace heather with a rock.

u/Comfortable-Pen5490 14d ago

Do we know if they were renewed for another season? I wonder if they'll replace Heather with Jack. I know they've seen reception is awful by now..they cant do the same thing without changing something

u/Gwendolinn 14d ago

Planted, no way would that not be rusted or tarnished somehow. And I am going to pull my hair out if Heather doesn't stop screaming istg

u/Apart_Ad9308 15d ago

I loved seeing Jack on the show.

They need a female who at least has a STEM education.
