Bone Detectives on Discovery Channel

Friday, February 15, 2008

I’ve been watching Bone Detectives with Scotty Moore.  It’s on the Discovery Channel. It’s ok.  I would enjoy it tons more if they didn’t try to make it so dramatic.  Last night was a Maya episode.  The content was pretty interesting.  But there was this shot of a slowly spinning ceiling fan and a dripping faucet.  Ok. Dramatic, interesting, but what on God’s green Earth does that have to do with the Maya and archaeology? Nothing and that’s my point.  This show has real potential if they would stop with the melodrama and concentrate on the archaeology and the history of the area.

    It doesn’t look like there was enough interest in the show to keep it going. It only lasted 6 episodes. I guess the melodrama got them in the end.
