Another reason I don't care for "Diggers"

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.

I see the show as joke, and does nothing but make a mere mockery of the hobby, it's the wingnuts like these guys and other idiots that make the true enthusiast like us, look like fools to the general public. All I can hear is "look at those guys" in reference to the shows that stereo type us, because of them.

Let's just break that down a little let's start with Deadliest Catch.
Everything about that show is big dramatic and dynamic from the ocean to the weather and all the other moving parts... Its big on the TV screen all on its own.
Same with wicked tuna... Ice cold gold should speak for itself I mean watching natural gold be pulled from the earth is exciting all on its own.
Now take a couple of guys with a metal detector how on earth do you think it could be done to keep someone engaged and actively watching that program something has to be added to the mix.
I personally think they've found just about the only way to keep a large audience watching somebody metal detect.. And keep an audience for the commercials because after all sales is what television is really about

of the ones I listed the only one I ever watched a whole episode & weekly, was Amish Mafia.
but that was because it was Semi Local.

If you saw the Last episode though, sounds to me they learned their lesson on
trusting Production crews and May have completely destroyed any trust at all between
the English and the Amish in Lancaster, or it was all a sham as I thought in the first place
and the end was an Excellent Ruse .

If there is another season it will be obvious which :laughing7:

Im not sure where you stand on the topic but you're all over the place dude.....I think these guys are dopes. If you're swinging a metal detector then you sir are one of us, an enthusiast. Its the jackasses like them that tar the hobby to the general public.
