Its a "Reality" show just like Pickers, storage wars, and others. There is just a teeny bit of truth involved (MAYBE) but the vast majority is completely scripted. They will milk the show for all its worth and then it will fade away. Reality shows are very cheap to make and because people watch them advertisers will pay good money to get their name on them.

Not sure this show is that cheap to produce, they just built a water dam wall to seal off Smith Cove that had to cost way over a million dollars, plus they also bought a large rock/ dirt shaker for going through the dirt they excavated from the cove that had to cost around a million dollars.GeorgeinSC said:
I'm sure they get a lot of money from doing the show but that's how they can afford to do all these large jobs and in my opinion they'll find these treasures that people couldn't find before them because they now have the resources that the others didn't have.

When they find the "Treasure" I will come up to WV which I do from time to time and buy your lunch.
In my opinion it is as fake as all the rest of those reality shows. But that is just my opinion.
Look at the number of people who admit that they watch the show and then think of all the people in this nation who have been drawn in and think of the dollars that the advertisers are willing to pay to get their product in front of that many million people.

I definitely agree they are making lots of Money from the show it's gaining popularity each season and the advertiseiers want in on the action, they've actually been six men dye looking for these treasures in the past plus they are spending a ton of money on looking for these treasures.

It's still wasn't perfect even after they sealed it with silicone but at least now there able to dig in Smith Cove with the help of water pumps and uncover those hidden structures plus Gary with that metal detector is in heaven looking for stuff.wvrick said:

I've seen him detect several times, and I've noticed that A; he has his coil at least 2-3 inches above the ground, thereby losing some depth, and that B; he swings his coil a little too fast, risking not hearing a deep, faint signal, and C; at times he doesn't overlap his swings, or even use a proper grid type search. He almost zig zags his coil quite often, therefore possibly missing some targets. But, that just might be him trying to cover ground quickly for the cameras. But hey, if I were as good as him, I'd be on Oak Island, rather than him, lol

That Oak Island "Reality Show" is pure bovine feces. Look at any of the So called "Reality" shows. They string people along for as long as possible. Every episode has to have some type of Drama. Given time this show will quit being so profitable and will just disappear.

Personally I believe they are milking this show...so many people are hooked... I know it is TV...but Gary who is a “professional “? Doesn’t wear headphones. And using a shovel? Not very careful of the target... it any of us hunted with a shovel we would be thrown out before turning the Machine on... needless to say I am not to fond of Gary....or the Narrator of the show. Just my opinion.
