Watched the new episode of Digfellas tonight. Liked it better than the premier episodes. They stayed in one location, instead of going to different sites. Yes, they flittered around a bit, but, same area. They actually seemed to dig, also, instead of finding revolvers, coins, etc. a half inch under the soil, lol. Still...

Pure entertainment. It just doesn't represent the true nature of this hobby. Instead, more emphasis on cheap laughs & wacky antics. Nothing wrong with that, as that's why they have Pawn Stars & something like Antiques Roadshow...the latter of which I prefer, but, to each their own.

I missed it again. It's on too early-- out here in the West I'm not ready to start watching TV so soon. I recorded it last week and was glad I did so I didn't have to suffer through the commercials. Thought the show sucked too. Worse than diggers but not quite as offensive/arrogant as DIgWars. As least the guys on diggers take a self deprecating outlook to their antics while the others all seem to exhibit egos on steroids. I just wish they would drop the ridiculus language they're trying to create.

We had a producer from one of the channels approach our club on-line looking for potential cast members for a detecting show. They specifically stated they were looking for an individual with a "big" personallity, as they said , hopefully a biker type badass with tats and the works---lots of detectorists around who relate to that so there's part of the problem.

Let's face it , the shows are not for those swinging a detector 

Missed it...was to busy detecting the camp. Oh well, I like Rons videos better.

Yeah, me too  No stupid horseplay, no 150 year old targets lying suspiciously just an inch under the soil, no emphasis on value, value, value & most importantly...Ron kinda reminds me of Clark Kent with the glasses and everything. Every time he digs an old coin, I think he's gonna reappear on screen dressed in blue tights as Silver Man
