When they say seven must die, can we now say seven are dead by including the dead chicken?

I looked up some recent ratings on the show figuring they must be low because it's the same nonsense every episode. Nope. Number one show on cable for the night they're on:
http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/daily-ratings/tuesday-cable-ratings-jan-3-2017/
So I don't think this will be the last season and I'm guessing we're looking at two more seasons, at least. Then they'll probably take a year off and then set it up so the brothers "find new clues" and come out with a new spinoff series called "Return to Oak Island" and this time they'll have a moderately attractive female on the team to try to keep viewership up. You heard it here first!

Renewing contracts with different terms happens all the time. Especially for a show with high ratings.

How many years will it take for the brothers to find treasures? Maybe never, I believe.

After they dig there third hole what is left to search... They have dug the pit (found nothing), They have emptied 10X (found chicken bone and some old wood), they have drained the swamp (found rail way spike and old plank) and they have dammed and explored Smiths cove (Found some previously found/photographed wood)... The results the same. No treasure and no evidence of treasure... Short of doing a 'Dunfeild' of the area (ripping a massive hole) there options are pretty much exhausted....

RE FD Roosevelt
From reading J.Steele book (The Oak Island Mystery Solved) it appears the young FDR only visited OI twice for brief visits. He was not there engaged in the active digging for treasure...

Best thing in the show so far is when Rick gave kudos to those of us who put the hours in at archives (I LOVE the smell of 300-year-old books!). That he & Marty have not put that time in to date is amazing. He acted like this was his first time reading archive documents not brought to him by conspiracy theorists.
Isn't the first step in treasure hunting supposed to be research? Second step analysis? These guys are doing everything on the fly.

So my friend "assuming" you are correct... Why did they not come back and get it?
(Simple answer please)
They Did!

Marie Antoinette's Jewels
After watching episode 11, I did a little search on Marie Antoinette and Wiscassett, Maine. There have always been rumors that her furnishings arrived by ship in the Wiscassett area while she was imprisoned and some Americans worked to smuggle her and her possessions out of France. I read an old historical society paper on this and learned that a Mr Delano (any relation to FDR?) owned the land that the Cough house was on. The Clough House was the house where some speculate her furnishings may have ended up. It is located in Edgecomb, Maine which is just over the bridge from Wiscassett. The man who may have brought her property to the US did regular business in Paris. Here is a link to the historical society article. Isn't this fun!
