I watched the first episode on amazon the other day, I would have enjoyed it except for the jumping around looking like idiots part of it. Felt like I was watching a couple of 5 year olds play.

I avoided the Steve Jobs episode today &
am avoiding the end of the Pirate Island gold episode right now as I froze the screen to post this & get some Fast Forwarding Space. I really dont like the ends of the first 2 seasons because they
Jump in water etc. and act like children if they loose a bet.
Once I go back over I am hoping for another episode to watch though.
I do like Diggers , I just like the ability to FF through the nonsense :laughing7:

Nope :( that was the last episode for today :(

I'm looking forward to the Bonnie & Clyde episode again next week.
that was my all time favorite Diggers Episode

I hope so! We could use new episodes! I need some tips on flinging myself into a tree or a pile of rocks!:laughing7:
I like the show and if this old body could, I'd be rolling on the ground too!

I have been known to get a little excited... okay a lot of couple of times but I usually don't want the world to know and besides, all that jumping around would set me back a while trying to recover. I do like the interesting parts but the rest I can do without but hey, they can act like they want to, its their show.

exactly. When people look at them they think Morons or entertainers :laughing7:

as long as they don't blow things up or bring heavy equipment in showing large pits
on peoples properties.
and as long as they lay their finds , good & Bad out on a table for everyone to see .

I think we are ok

This is my son's reaction when they start acting childish. He still does enjoy watching the show to see what they find.

Diggers is ok... but they do act like kids.
No real professionalism to them.
They act like kids with new detectors for Christmas.
I watch em though... and my girl and I adapted some words from them like.
Cologne etc

I like "digger Dan"
He needs a show heh.
Course he repeats a lot.
Has crazy sayings like "real masturbation" "dig it" "get in"

Ya I just don't understand it, what is their target audience? The main audience they are trying to reach is put off by the way they act. Makes no sense. Even if I hit the lotto you wouldn't catch me crawling through a dog house and tripping over a foundation or climbing on a tree like a 4 year old out of excitement...

I have never yelled after finding something...
My girl and I have hand signals...
And I make sure no one is around or looking.
We do n ot even talk when detecting ... till we take a break once in awile...

If I hit the lotto...
this is what you would see and hear from me... OH and is one of my famous "hand signals"...

I yell on occasion.
But not anything like they do.
I'll give a quick Sharp Loud "Hey !" or use the friends first name instead of Hey
If I am close enough to get their attention.
Otherwise I'll Wait or Walk over to them,
if it is too good to wait :laughing7:

Yes after 50 years detecting, I still get excited at times :thumbsup:

I say "hey" as well.. real quick like... otherwise everyone turns around. (beach)
But we work early morns usually the beaches when no one else is around.
I have a quick short sharp whistle as well...
She hears me ... looks up at me...
I have certain hand gentures for certain things found...
Like ring... is a pinky in the air.
