Sorry, you are half right, the show should be called
Fantasy Island. with a little guy named tatto. Also, I thought last night was final season episode. At the very end I think they said next week is final episode.

There are just way too many unanswered questions that arise with the 'money pit'. Though the current quest seems sincere, virtually nothing has been found to indicate that there is any treasure still buried on Oak Island. Or if anything was ever there, it was discovered long ago. A lot of myth and legend passed down, however how much is true, even with the original story of the 3 boys passed down through the decades? Did they leave the pulley? Who really knows the truth. Yes, many different people came and went from the island so it stands to reason that a few old coins were dropped, rocks were marked, wells were dug for fresh water, little things were lost & left behind.
Watching the recent (Feb) program for 2016, I can't help but think there is nothing there. All the money and years of work that went into 10x only to discover that it is just a natural cavern of crumbling clay, filled with silty water and not by any 'booby traps' set by anyone. Natural 'tunnels' so small one needs to crawl through them. And there is still no satisfaction that now they want to drain it and go back down? Even with risking lives by the great probability of it caving in once the water is removed (the 'walls' are not reinforced with anything, no wood) because there 'might' be something in the bottom silt the diver didn't see or find? Really? It's not a body, it's a mushy sink hole, people. There was no 'treasure chest', it was found to be a huge rock by the diver who made it to the bottom.
One of the 3 women relatives of the original 'finders' claimed that a gold cross was handed down in their family from one of the original 3
treasure chests found, each boy taking one chest each, which appeared to be a surprise to the dig 'fellowship', That shouldn't be very hard to
verify. Those chests would have made those boys and their families very wealthy. What do the historical records say about those families? Nova
Scotia was not heavily populated then and a rags to riches uptick in lifestyle would be noticed and documented. No one has researched these claims? No fact finding?
One woman relative produced a cross supposedly from the original treasure chest found and stated that it was verified by a jeweler to be
500 yrs old. By a jeweler? Again, where is the proof? Was it pure gold? Did it have an alloy? Did they alloy gold back then and with what metal
when only wealthy had gold jewelry? Was it in the style of gold crosses made back then and from where? Any wear marks on it? What country, area, did the gold come from to make it? All this can be verified by testing and examining. It casts great doubt when this was never done nor
proposed now. Those relatives may truly believe and never seemed to question the 'official' family story heard and gleaned from current relatives hearsay. The family myth and legend has an enormous probability to have evolved greatly, adding much more supposition, myth and legend since the 1700's.
Why didn't those 3 relatives come forward before now? Surely they knew that they were searching on Oak Island, it's not secret knowledge.
Another 'find' was the 21ft cavity they located. The parting words were maybe they'll have to excavate 18 stories down to get to what they 'saw'
through a camera. A small shiny area that glowed when looked at with a light shining on it and through the reflection of water. It's a far stretch to say or think that it is any artifact of sorts. It could just be yet another natural (water filled) cavern and that shine could just be quartz. It is an island with lots of caverns, some water filled and not to forget, there was fools gold mining done there.
In the end, there is a lot of myth, legend, signs scribbled on rock interpretations etc that is being counted on then followed and not much fact or anything of value found thus far. Even many of the legends and myths are really 'out there'. Ark of the Covenant? Really? Holy Grail? There is no such thing as the Holy Grail. It is a totally made up fictional account and story from the Middle Ages when romanticizing knights, fair maidens, Merlin & King Arthur was in vogue. A little research will show that to be true and would go a long way to show credibility than to designate fictional historical error as fact.
Hopefully they'll find something concrete and valid soon, something of true historical "treasure" value, more than just chasing the myths, legends and rock scribbles that are thought to be true. Too much 'made for tv scripted 'reality' and not enough quality and follow up research done for answers.
Don't know about you, but I'm losing interest fast.

Until they finish bringing everyone to the Island for a has been tour, There is no treasure or proof of one,no facts
np
npKing Arthur actually lived many, many decades before the fictional King Arthur was written about. Actually he was a Celtic druid king, Scottish by birth. Interesting the root core of myth and legends, hence....Oak Island.

And this all DOES relate to Arthur's Seat in Scotland......a major clue in the sequence has a direct reference to the puzzle and shows something taken from Scotland and relocated to nova Scotia and Vermont
The Carving was featured on the show and Pulitzer had no idea what he was talking about describing the stone carving as a "map to everything on Oak Island" and that he could "take them to it"...LOL
The previous archaeological review of it from a Canadian standpoint was that it was an Aboriginal Carving that showed a man dragging a "vagina" behind him....no lie....his exact words......
As you can clearly see this is a carving that shows a direct point of reference in the sequence of movements from france to the new world.....first leaving La Rochelle and taking a course to the central rock in the photo above, is exactly 681 miles.....
"PAX 681" was researched as being found encoded into the parchment found in the column in Rennes Le Chateau and this was the first segment of movements to get to a trove there, and relocate it to the Nova Scotia coastline....
its all documented on my page.....

Dunno........... Can't count that high......
The show is over for the year. As far as finding Treasure depending on how you define that they already have. ( coins etc ) I know that's not the answer your looking for but what kind of treasure has to be found to be able to say "They found the treasure" which some on here don't believe there ever was a treasure.. Which will make this quest go on forever. People looking for something that has either already been found or was never there to start with. There are so many theories as to how and where it is, they can never pursue them all.. So then the next group will come in and try their hand at it just like it has been going for decades..
