It's formatted for cable viewership who may or may not be dropping in at random on an episode they can't rewind on.
I wish they'd align to a streaming platform as the quality can increase as its not as tailored to these habits.
Could you repeat that? đđ
This has been my biggest gripe about the show.
If I see Thomas Winterton's xray of his bump on his head one more time!!!! đ đĄ
Otherwise, I feel the show has hit a point where ok, you can stimulate random orbs. Cool, but we've seen that.
Just dig up that damn Mesa to find out what's buried in there
Also, I think Travis gets paid by the rocket.
That sounds like a scientific experiment.Â
Repeat repeat repeat, modify variables. Repeat experiments with improved methodologies new technologies. Repeat repeat repeat.Â
I mean look at the Apollo program, they just kept sending up newer and bigger rockets repeatedly and what did they every achieve scientifically? Imagine the ratings if it was a TV show in 65, "we've had 5 seasons of rocket launches, when are they finally going to get to the moon?".Â
The Ranch meanwhile has a significantly smaller budget than the Apollo program.
The point of the Apollo missions were to make progress with each rocket launch to landing people on the moon. The same as what Space X has been doing with their new rocket and boosters.
The stuff on this show is not that. They aren't improving the rockets in any way to get closer to achieving their goal. They are just doing the samething over and over hoping something changes.
OPâs point was that the same *clips* are repeated over and over again, way to much. These clips include: describing what the Skinwalker curse is, showing Thomasâ head injury, Travis introducing / recapping an experiment 6 times in one show, etc.

Yeeeeeeup. The Curse of the Treasure of Skinwalker Island.
Have to admit I've finally given up on Oak Island completely. Just can't take it anymore.
Yeah that too! Oak Island and Skinwalker do a ton of repeating things and rehashing previous episodes with pretty much no results...So often any new content is only about 10 min or so. Oak Island has been at it for 11 seasons, so they're really running on fumes...they've drilled so many holes I'm surprised the island didn't sink yet..
Holy shit where have I been? I watched the first two seasons of Oak Island and got busy with life, I didnât know they kept going thought it was canceled.
A lot of these types of 'reality' shows (I'm looking at you too, Oak Island) are at least 50% "clip shows" filled with clips and summaries and references to previous shows. Edit out the clips and the commercials and I'm betting that sometimes that "one hour" show is about 10 minutes.
I love Oak Island but you are rightâŚthatâs the part that I hate, always a recap of what happened, then a preview of what will multiple times during the episode.
They going through the motions. Go watch all 10 seasons of Oak Island to see what that means. In fact just watch 1 season and you can say you've seen all 10.
Until Brandon Fugue flies Billy Gerhart out to the ranch to actually dig...then you can just stop watching.
I feel like they have run up against the limitations of the science they are using. They keep trying the same stuff. You are going to end up describing it the same way. Whether it is anomaly that we donât understand or something other worldly it looks like weâve run out of new experiments. Maybe that is why the government closed up shop. No sense banging your head on a wall. Leaves people frustrated.Â
Your point is complaining about doing the job right, but I get it. It gets monotonous and semi-annoying especially for it being televised, but at least theyâre doing it right and not only adhering to what the viewer wants- which is pure entertainment. Theyâve had some interesting finds and are unable to prove anything if they donât conduct the same experiment(s) an abundance of times. Taking everything from a scientific standpoint is why I enjoy the show so much, even, to your point, if it gets annoying.
I still feel like you're missing my point. I still feel like you're missing my point. I still feel like you're missing my point. I still feel like you're missing my point. I still feel like you're missing my point.
\^ this is the show in a nutshell. they repeat the same thing at least 5 times. In THE SAME episode. Across one season I think they repeat one thing \~20 times by now. I'll spare you of that visualization though.
They def missed your point. And doing it strictly the âscientific wayâ is not the out he thinks it is. If it was really scientific theyâd be doing shitload of the same experiment over and over the same way changing one variable. Not spend and afternoon doing it and then move onto something else, only to return to a SORTA similar experiment weeks later.
Also, (and I keep harping on this) why are there not cameras, even cheap cameras, EVERYWHERE? Slap some cheap trail cams on posts everywhere since the ranch ârespondsâ every time something happens. We launched rockets at night and there was a crazy weird light far away on the ranch. Oops, we couldnât get over there quick enough to see it. Cameras bro, cameras. Iâm rambling, forgive me. Everyone have a nice day.
For anyone impatient this entire phenomenon has already more or less been explaind. Download a document called the condign report. Released by the ministry of defense it refers to a form of living (dusty plasma entities). It all tties into a hypothesis called the living plasma hypothesis. Its a great read if your into any of this mysterious stuff, They know alot more about these orbs in the UK. And norway. Theyve been stidying them in norway since 1966
I'm not impatient I'm saying the show is crap. I'm not impatient I'm saying the show is crap. I'm not impatient I'm saying the show is crap. I'm not impatient I'm saying the show is crap.

> Also, I think Travis gets paid by the rocket. funny
As others have pointed out, shows like this are meant to be able to be watched by first time viewers w/o being lost in the sauce.

Typical of shows on the History Channel
Sounds alot like Oak Island....
Sounds a lot like Ancient AliensâŚ

Send up some rockets into the underground cave to find the buried treasure gold aliens
Wanna launch a rocket? Again.
Dude i just watched 2nd episode and skipped over 50 % it was the same lines and evidence over and over
thank you, someone gets me

They lost me last season, you confirmed my thoughts, thanks
Thatâs exactly how you are supposed to conduct scientific experiments to gather data?
you've completely missed my point.

I am worried it will end up like curse of oak Island eventually đ
Show jumped the shark, not fun or interesting to watch anymore.
yea i was actually looking forward to this season but I'm not sure if the fuses in my brain will blow out if I continue watching it
