They aren't playing the episode again until next week, ugh. Do you live in 1997 or something? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juddling Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jan 13, 2014 -> 10:20 AM) I started watching The Curse of Oak Island and it's really well done. That stuff has always fascinated me to begin with and I wrote a paper on pre-Columbian trans-Atlantic voyages in college so this was a no brainer for me to watch. But the show after that I mistakenly watched for a couple minutes because I meant to get to bed but couldn't stop watching. Appalachian Outlaws. It was surprisingly highly enjoyable and I can't wait for the next episode. I remember reading the same Readers Digest article the one brother read about the island and it always fascinated me as well. I caught a ad for the show a few weeks ago but I was assuming it was going to be a documentary on the island, history, etc. not so much a reality show. I agree that the announcer is beyond annoying as he tries to make every small thing sound like it could be a huge breakthrough. I have it set on the DVR just in case i miss it but then again...there isn't much on at 9pm sunday nights. **sidenote.....I DO believe that something of some value is buried there. will be interesting to see what if anything is down there.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 14, 2014 -> 04:04 PM) I finished the second episode last night. Honestly it is pretty boring and I am sick of the ominous narrator voice constantly being dubbed over with "IF THIS PROVES TO BE TRUE..." statements, when most of them don't pan out. Glad to see the coconut fibers were dated between 1290 and 1450, otherwise I might not have tuned in again. It is a cool legend and all, but in two hours (god knows how much real life time) they hadn't really found anything of substance, and I was losing interest. Well that's going to happen since they probably could have done this in a 2-hour documentary but are trying to push a whole show out of it.

I've read a few works on the money pit as part of research for papers in college and I am pretty convinced that something is or was down there.

Buehrle>Wood Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Did anyone watch The Assets? CIA drama based on true events during the 80s. Bit Homelandish except more PG since it's on ABC. I thought it was great. Anyways apparently the second episode was the lowest rated prime time tv show ever and it was cancelled. How lame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juddling Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Saw an interview with 'Dewey Crowe' from Justified. Didn't know the actor was Australian so when I heard that accent I was astonished.

I cant detect the slightest bit of english accent when I watch Walking Dead. Its kind of funny how english actors are able to suppress their accents, but a large portion of american actors cannot fake the english accent.

juddling Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 As it's only been 2 episodes I'm still not sold on it yet but CBS's Intelligence with Josh Holloway has been OK so far..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juddling Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 FWIW..... Carter Bays and Craig Thomas — the creators of HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER — have revealed for the very first time how they planned to wrap up the show’s ongoing mystery if it had been cancelled after just one season. “I don’t know if we ever consciously said this out loud, but we both kind of agreed, like, Ted meeting Victoria (Ashley Williams) happened at the end of Episode 12…” Carter recalled during a media set visit Wednesday night (01-15-13). “I think there was a feeling of ‘God forbid the show just gets yanked… It would have been Victoria.’” The character ended up appearing in just 16 episodes, while HIMYM went on to run for nine seasons. “Cut to somewhere Ashley Williams reading this, [thinking], ‘Motherf–ker — that would have been awesome!’” Thomas joked.
