Season 10 - Starts on November 15th, 2022

I've been watching History Hit on YouTube. What the History Channel could be if they were educated in history, archeology and anthropology. No aliens, ghosts or Bigfoot.

Only things I watch on TV much anymore are; the local & national news (CBS), Resident Alien and Battle Bots.

There's nothing on TV better than Battle Bots. Watching reruns since the Giant Bolt championship ended, waiting for the Giant Nut. Ray and Tombstone ruled for years until these new bots came along that can send them 15" in the air and out of the arena.

Tombstone needs a redesign. It's taken itself out in matches for a long time. While it delivers incredible hits, Tombstones's design doesn't account for the energy reflected back to itself and the damage it incurs due to its blade hitting the floor and other arena structures and thus destroying itself.

You are right about the redesign for Tombstone. It receives more self-inflicted damage than damage delivered by opponents. I bet Ray has already redesigned it. Battle Bots World Championship VII filming takes place in Las Vegas from Oct 18th - 30th. Tickets are available on Ticketmaster. Two sessions a day - 12 pm to 4 pm and 6 pm til. Don't know the lag time before the Discovery Channel can show it.
 

Ray's Duck. All the way. ;-). Just be tough and survive long enough for your opponents to destroy themselves.
 

I liked Duck before Ray added a flipper.

Just raw, rugged, reliability.

Perhaps hoax island would be better used as the site of the World Battlebots Championship?

Gilligan's Island meets Treasure Island, Season 10. Season finale: They discover Wrongway Feldman's plane in a clearing that Gary walks into while chasing a golf ball and the crew's dream of escaping the island starts to realize itself. Spoiler: The plane leaves without them and you are stuck watching season 11.
 

Today is the day. . . Season 10 starts tonight!
As of Friday, Nov. 11th Oak Island is pretty quiet. The main people left for the season after the wrap up party on Friday. The Gerhardt Crew are working on a rock wall and are still making daily trips to the Island. Three empty flatbeds arrived on Nov 4th to haul the big Irving crane and parts back home until next year. Bill's long reach excavator was still in the swamp on the 5th and water pumps were running. The Choice core drilling rig left on Nov. 5th and the crew pulled out together after the party.
It's a wrap until Season 11 starts filming next spring. . . Is that laughter I hear?

I was speechless after Tuesday's premier showing of season 10! The tunnel sonar scan was illuminating. It sounds like they will use some tunneling technology to descend to the lower older tunnel areas this year.
 

Anyone who missed tonight's episode missed some things:
  1. Wood? From a depth of 98 feet?
  2. A British Templar initiation chamber, coincidentally the same diameter of the money pit.
  3. Discovery of a Bobby Dazzler. Part of the treasure not in the underground vault.
 

Who could beleive that they would find tunnels dug by previous hoaxers along with wood they left.

Up next a trip to a European country to try and start another fictional story to try and tie it to something in the latest episodes.
 

This week Gary and Jack find a possible copper-wrapped parchment scroll.

Renowned gemologist and jewelry expert Peter Schneirla congratulated the team on their latest find from last week.

Now they are tracing the gold in the water toward a previously unknown depositor tunnel in "the most interesting area they've explored in the last 10 years".

This is where the technology gets cool: they're going to re-crib the Garden Shaft with "waterproof wood" to make it safe for humans to descend! What??? After centuries of previous searcher attempts to crib a tunnel, this will hold up to the water pressure? And what's the point of sending humans down if all they're looking at is new waterproof wood walls? Supposedly they'll also be able to tunnel sideways as needed to follow the newly discovered depositor tunnel to find the gold, but I'm skeptical until I see it work.
