Obviously the show has created a lot of interest, good or bad, depending on your viewpoint.

I think Hollywood producers would tell you that bad publicity is as just as good as good publicity....

Very True unfortunately.

Howard Stern Proved that.

However once you have done it all, it still becomes a Bore

Why were the upset with him? Because he was trying to make a living at what he was doing?
.. I will say that you hit it right on… I guess you could call it "Lets make him unemployed "and of course some were jealous .. and as usual a lot follow the pack … They want to look good to everyone … You know mob mentality

If someone asked to film some of your hunts and they offered to pay you say twice what you normally make at work what would you do?
I would tell them to jump in the back of the truck and hang on.

I disagree. I think it is a very bad thing for "the hobby." The more attention we get the harder it becomes to practice our hobby. More and more restrictions, more and more newbie’s digging holes in easily accessible parks and private properties without permission, proper technique or ethics. The only people that profit from these shows are the advertisers and metal detector manufacturers.

Lost a few colonial field permissions because of the show - owners think im finding all kinds of "rare" buttons cause they say half the stuff they find are rare
like treble gilt flat buttons - and pewter musket balls -same buttons I show the farmers im finding and I find pewter musket balls around here too
I got offered a show before they did - still have a copy of the contract - so you cant go there with me

Besides all the juvenile antics, ridiculous hoopla, and unfounded speculation on targets, they are detecting areas that the rest of wouldn't stand a chance in hi** of obtaining permission to hunt. I YOU like it, watch it. I'm opting out.
