HISTORY: Shows & Documentaries

I give it 4 stars, based mainly on the yarn spun by the series. 13 years and still blathering about the Knights Templar I’m reviewing the story so far by streaming from Season 1 Episode 1. I’m repeating some previously seen episodes and carching up on some I missed. The story line holds up pretty well even if some of the crackpot “expertsʻ” revelations are total jokes (e.g. The Phoenicians or Columbus pre-1492 sailing to Oak Island). My main problem is with the way the episodes stream and are proken up at random intervals by irrelevant ads. Yes, Iʻve discussed it with the cable company and I have up-to-date Apple soft- and hardware. Nevertheless, the story is a fun diversion and I can understand why History would want to keep stringing us along as the Fellowship pursues the next shiny object. Who knows, maybe Prester John is the next suspect. Happy digging and aloha.

Watching fictional entertainment is all well and good for some. I enjoy it on occasion. However I am the mind set that if I am going to while away an hour or two I would rather learn something in the process. Even Curse of Oak Island has changed the way I view the world and the possibilities. Is history wrong, what was happening in the western world? Who is responsible for the structures. It's all so very interesting and gripping

I am not one to sit down and watch a whole lot of television, but when I do find the moments that I really want to sit down and watch some good television the first channel I ever go to is history channel on my phone it is one of the first places I go to to stay caught up with all my current shows. Thank you for fixing television the way it needs to be.
