I love historical documentaries especially when it's regarding religious beliefs/practices, anything secretive, lost or hidden history but this show is very dull most of the time. All the episodes are an hour long and most of the time I felt like what they discussed could be explained in a half hour episode. They reuse the same experts every episode, I would love to know what qualifications does a woman who wrote two books in Mary Magdalene have regarding Nazi Germany political and military tactics including weapons, propaganda and stolen artworks or on ancient Roman and Greek oracles. I am not saying she can't I just find it strange that the only mention of her expertise is related to earlier Christianity which is if a completely different time period and geographical location than the Nazi party or Ancient Greek and Roman oracles. They discuss the Fraternity if Freemasons but never mention the Raja Shrine or Daughters if the Eastern Star both of which are groups associated and connected with the Freemasons. The one "expert" said the temple of Luxor was recreated in Paris with the Louvre museum only a minute or two after saying the pyramids in front of the Louvre are replicas if the pyramids of Giza. The logical question anyone paying attention would have is what are representations of pyramids from Giza doing in a representation of a temple from Luxor. The only logical explanation is it wasn't a recreation of them temple of Luxor which didn't have pyramids and the pyramids are representative of Giza, two separate locations in Egypt.
Bottom line is most of the episodes don't have much (or at least an hours worth) of information some of which is incomplete, wrong or just assumptions with no real evidence for it (if the temple of the oracle collapsed how do you know there was a fissure in the ground where they sat allowing volcanic gasses to leak up through, you don't). Funny how the science channel has a show that seems largely based in speculation and not proven fact, so much for scientific method.
