Canadian film crews are absolutely horrible with recreates, b-roll, and set up in the outdoor industry as well. Up until recently, no one calls them out on it up there where if you pull that crap in the States every Tom and Jerry with a camera is jumping your shit online trying to knock you off your spot.



Have you watched the supposed stone find episode yet? Remember them searching for it long ago and the search seemed very boring and pointless in a basically empty basement? Now they magically found it in a separate part of the basement they didn't show us going into last time. It's as if they found it, or knew it was there the whole time, but didn't show us because they needed time for testing to be done in order to have the results in hand for a later episode.



If I wasn't interested in the actual historical content, this show would completely blow.

I don’t really see it as a problem that they found the cross and wanted to add more weight to it. They could have simply found it, then went and looked at something similar (in TV time) and the result is still the same in that they have an old cross from Europe. It’s not necessary to present it how they did but it doesn’t really bother me.

I don’t agree on the stone since that was across different seasons. I think they genuinely didn’t realize how much basement needed to be searched. Regarding the stone it’s clearly the one from the 1900s, but I’m doubtful it’s one from the money pit.
