I have watched EVERY episode.

I don’t know if there still is a treasure to be found.
I don’t know if there ever was a treasure.

BUT, on a little island in the middle of NOWHERE, has certainly been visited by many European explorers. WHY? This is CENTURIES BEFORE any reports of buried treasure.

Instead of “The Curse Of Oak Island” it should be named “The Mysteries Of Oak Island”.

I don’t know about treasure and I don’t know about it being cursed, but Mysterious FOR SURE!

Ancient artifacts, what are they doing there? How did they get there? (To a small island in the middle of NOWHERE, that is).

If you don’t like the show, don’t watch it.

You would be in the minority.

I thought the original premise as to why go to Oak Island was that Captain Kidd buried treasure there.

It’s not on an island in the middle of nowhere. It does have a strategic location if you look at a map. From the South, ships would sail up the coast before sailing back to Europe. The island is accessible from the mainland and is on the southern route for those coming across the northern trade routes (think Vikings to name one). The island is not like Easter Island. By the way it was revealed this past season there were Oak Trees of the non-Northern American variey that grew there and died out.
