Episode 13; I thought this couldn't get any more stupid and then it did!


Where in gods name did they dig up the "fellow treasure hunter" from Arizona or Texas or wherever that sped was supposed to be from??

The guy couldn't put a coherent sentence together, he should have had a sign around his neck that said "Yes, that's right, I am full of sh#@t!" But that wasn't enough, no, because he wasn't just full of sh#@t, he was insane! When he started babbling about rooms with tables and chairs and urns and credenza's who knows what, he might have even mentioned flat screen TV's because by that point I'm looking at the TV and thinking, they're kidding right, this isn't for real right? This is a joke!

But it wasn't a joke, they let this moron babble on forever about rooms underground and relics. And then he very officially puts his glasses back on, looks at Rick and offers his services as a consultant! For what, convincing people that you've completely lost your frigging mind?? Or how to sound like you've got a mouth full of marbles when you speak? I thought the three old bag ladies with the fake cross were bad, and the oompa loompa lady from last weeks episode but this clown just brought things to a whole new level of farce.

And Rick's sitting there across the table staring at this asshat with a look on his face that said; how much more of this nonsense am I willing to put up with to do a TV show? Or; when this scene is over I'm going to punch this moron in the face then kill the writer who came up with this crap.

A new low, when I thought they'd gone as low as they possibly could. I guess in a way you've got to give them credit for that. Coming up with increasing stupid plot lines is kind of a talent I guess...isn't it? Especially when they keep setting the bar higher each week!

Stone. Motherf#&$n. Foot. Your argument is invalid. (drops mike).

"You have to read the surface. I understand the surface, and I can understand what's below it."

He found all of this by digging 2" holes. 2 INCHES!!

2 inches allow him to see a cup on a table, a locked door, steps, and make a good faith estimate of "several hundred tons of bullion".

I treated him nicer than he deserved to be treated in this week's parody.

How can this show get worse every week?
Could it be the Curse of Oak Island?

Prometheus Entertainment HQ

Producer to writing staff - Alrighty, we're sinking more money than ever before into this show, I want to stretch it 3, maybe 4 extra episodes to get it back. Thoughts?

Writer 1 - But we only have material for 10 episodes...

Producer - (stares coldly)

Writer 2 - There's that weird hobbit lady from the first episode that draws the crayon maps, maybe there's more there.

Producer - Now that's good, send Rick to her house, that's half an episode right there. What else.

Writer 3 - We can use a face on a rock.

Producer - Wait...do we have a face on a rock?

Writer 3 - No worries, we can send Jack on a road trip, somewhere there's a rock that looks like a face.

Producer - Good, make it so. Keep 'em coming.

(writers glance at each other and look at their feet)

Writer 2 - I know, there's that episode where they put in the temporary coffer dam, we can have Barkhouse slice one of the bladders so it bursts open!

Producer - YES! We can turn one episode into 2 right there! We still need something else though.

(more stares around the room, some coughing and finger tapping)

Writer 1 - We...we could call the Roman sword guy...

Producer - You're fired, get out. SECURITY!

(Security escorts writer 1 out. The others start to sweat and pull at their collars)

Producer - Well?

Writer 2 - Well, there's, umm (clears throat) Gary Clayton?

Producer - Who?

Writer 2 - The guy that owns Little Mash Island?

Producer - ....Who?

Writer 2 - The guy with the hat?

Producer - Oh God, no. No no no.

Writer 2 - Look, he never stops calling and Linda says she'll quit if he keeps showing up at the office..

Producer - How about we find another rock that looks like a face instead.

Writer 3 - That may be pushing it in the same season..

Producer - I suppose...is there anything else? Anything?

(silence)

Producer - Damn. Ok, but make sure he has some sort of artifact or something and at least a semblance of credibility. Maybe carve another hooked X onto a rock or something. Alright, I think we're there, Crown time!


Postscript - Months later, screaming is heard behind the closed doors of the writers room - "I told you CREDIBLE, and you give me a STONE F#^!@n FOOT?!?"
