Nothing scheduled
Is it for me?
Armchair adventurers who like treasure hunts and history more than hard-nosed documentary will feel at home. Josh Gates keeps a dry joke ready for every remote location, then turns serious once a theory gets tested. Each hour gives a legend's rival explanations a fair hearing before it says what holds up.
Before you start
Most episodes cover one legend and stand alone, so skip any whose mystery doesn't appeal; a few investigations run across two or more.
