As anticipation builds for Seasons 13 and 14, many fans express deep concerns about the future of the show, with environmental regulations and past excavation attempts raising alarm. The recent chatter on forums shows a mix of skepticism and suggestions from the community.
Some fans are discontent with the series' current direction. One poster bluntly stated, "There is NOTHING to find ๐คฆโโ๏ธ", voicing concerns over the potential lack of discoveries. Others echoed similar sentiments, questioning whether these new seasons will even materialize. One noted humorously about waiting for a Canadian government permit, adding, "Will spend the entire season waiting for a Canadian government permit ๐๐คฃ"
Environmental issues dominate discussions, with many believing that if strip mining were a feasible solution, it would have already been attempted. Commenters question the logic of the current methods, suggesting a more systematic approach: "they should slam cans right next to each other in a big grid covering the whole area. The hunting and pecking method isnโt working."
Moreover, one participant remarked, "You know Laird and the government would step in", highlighting the anticipated bureaucratic challenges ahead.
Fans reference past attempts to penetrate the depths of the money pit, specifically pointing to Dunfieldโs previous efforts that reached significant depths. Of note is a comment stating, "But that center deepest spot just missed the treasure!" This resonates with frustrations about the perceived lack of progress. Some fans, however, are not deterred. Others speculate about what might be waiting in the dark, with one poster mentioning a "hinge to a chest" or an old door as potential finds.
While many are negative about what the future holds, there are also sparks of creativity emerging in the ideas shared. Posters have been brainstorming solutions and lean towards various theories on what those excavations could turn up, as well as humorous takes on returning characters like Carmen. Yet, the overall tone remains cautious, reflecting shared doubts.
