eldritch35 Red Zone lost? No because the Zone was already owned by another company.This group keeps "finding" new areas with gold or other valuable minerals but if you dig just a little bit with google, all the places they go has been examined by others. So all in all this is a fake show where they will never get a "claim" To see such a show on Discovery saddens me./Allan Come on Discovery, live up to you name.This stupid 10 line rule! I've seen much shorter reviews than mine and yet I am forced to write lots of irrelevant stuff yet again just to get it passed....annoying :/

ronaldkoenig I have watched every episode to date. They continue to devolve. Perhaps mercifully, the series will conclude following this season. Since the initial episode, we have watched both the team and the mission deteriorate. Based on the snippet shown as a preview for next week (May 3), the former team will become wildly diverse special interest groups and will even launch invectives at one another. How much fun will that be?The series seemed like a good idea when it began, but it is time to end this soap opera. At least fire Americo and Eric, bring on a real mining expert and someone with specific knowledge and experience pertaining to Greenland's geology and mining history/prospects. If there are truly riches to be discovered, these characters are not the ones to find them. Bad karma, terrible inexperience, very poor planning capabilities and zero Greenland knowledge. It is time to either get serious or go home.

cfarr-90994 I had started watching this series and was very interested in the show initially. There was some great information about Greenland, and prospecting, and the cast had done a reasonably good job in presentation. After watching into the second and third season, I am, to be honest, disappointed with the progress the show has made. The audience is treated like they have no intelligence and the extra "drama" and overdone emphasis on the "danger" that exists, well, we do not need it hammered into our heads. This has proved in itself to be a very scripted show. Nothing new is brought forward on the show, even in the interaction among the team, or in the actual expedition. It now is just fake and quite frankly an insult to watch as an audience member. I would have more respect for the cast and crew, and producers of the show, if they discussed more of the techniques, people's backgrounds, what do they actually do, take some time to get to know each of the individuals, maybe we could relate somehow to these people? (or are they just actors for hire? then say so). Maybe they could go over the actual map as to who has claims where? are they companies? countries? Which countries are actually there and for what target? It's hard to believe after 8-10 months of planning that there was not enough fuel to run the dredger. No one went though the check list? Difficult for the viewers to believe that mistake. The temper-tantrums amid the group is embarrassing to watch. How are we suppose to take this show seriously with these childish outbursts? Americo, and John are the worst there. These boys are really not qualified, assuming the show is honest about what they do for a living, to be on this type of expedition. The helicopter dropped off the first group and not one person stopped to look for the massive boxes for their camp before the helicopter took off leaving them stranded. Another slap in the face to the audience. Please, do not make another season of this. I implore you. It is really poorly done, poorly scripted, and quite honestly, embarrassing to admit I've watched it this far, but it's like watching a car accident when you have no control, and all you can do is hope for a descent outcome at the end. I have never written a review before, but I could not hold it in anymore and decided to express my opinion. You, the producers, have the tools to do a great job, but you dropped the ball on the one in a big way. Sorry guys.

Sunyata Satchitananda Are these guys actors? They're playing real life a little too much. Reality programming with actors playing at being real. I swear I've seen some of these guys on TV somewhere before. *WARNING SPOILER ALERT* The scenes are set up way too much to be reality. They feel rehearsed. SPOILER: And when the guy tells the story of why mining is important to him I didn't believe him. His delivery was orchestrated and felt false (although the facts he was telling could well be true)./SPOILER The scenery is gorgeous and dramatic; and its rubbing off on the actors (they are, right?) playing roles of tough guys who are daring mother nature in the coldest part of the world (Dramatic music crescendo) Throw in 'building a successful business' concerns with regular spats of tension, disagreement, and f*ck-ups and there's always drama going on —oh yeah, there's the "strike it rich" drama too. Appealing to the gold rush 49'r in all of us there are exciting moments to live our fantasies through, though small and fleeting. Could be a lot better, but I guess when you invest that much money into production you want a sure thing from the real people miners —who are anything but predictable in temperament or ability to 'move' people while on screen. Oh well.
