Legend Quest (2011)
Interesting but ...
... it was like watching Nicholas Cage in basically any movie he's in, pulling together random symbols into meaningful clues (or not). Possible spoilers.
This *could* be an interesting series if they didn't film it like an Indiana Jones-esqu action/adventure movie, complete with dotted lines on a map showing their travels as they "unravel" the mystery, mysterious "Orders" protecting secrets, and a sexy, do-nothing co- host who he calls over quite often, as if her only job is to be the mute sounding board for his unique and inspired ideas (because he's a Templar, dontchaknow, and understands all the imagery everywhere, even when he's wrong or the symbols don't look alike AT ALL). when he enters a basement of a church in Italy he acts like no one has been there for hundreds of years; cheese factor increased by the graffiti scratched into the rock walls behind him showing the hundreds of people there before him, and by the 'surprise' of pulling open a modern-day wire door as if Jesus himself unlocked it for him - dude, someone unlocked it for you before the cameras were rolling, or their security is lax. It doesn't mean much more than that. And we're not that stupid or easily entertained.
Surprised that they would create a "reality" show like this when there's so much more they could be spending their money on.
