Anyone else watching this?

I really thought last night was the season finale, and was pissed when the "To Be Continued..." popped up on the screen. I've been rooting for the geniuses to win since the beginning (well, at least since the Miss USAs got the boot), and I still hope they do, but I have a bad feeling that the Air Force is going to catch up with them and figure out the cryptex first.

I've actually caught the last couple episodes of this and thought yesterday's show was the finale as well. Not a bad show, actually. I'm surprised those other two "geniuses" didn't smack the shit out of the dude with the mutton chops for his misdirection in Philly.

the commercials for this show make it look really good, like an educational indiana Jones, but I never remember when it's on, and never remembered to set my tivo.

Well, that may be giving it a little too much credit, but I do like the show. It basically is a very extravagant treasure hunt. There are three-person teams from various walks of life, including a few families, ex-CIA members, Air Force members, geniuses, former Miss USAs, and grad students. Each week they are given clues and run around to find a particular thing, which is a piece to a bigger puzzle to find the ultimate treasure. For the first 6 or 7 weeks, the last team to that week's ultimate goal got kicked off. They traveled all over the U.S. and to Europe to find these various things. Now they're down to three teams - the geniuses, the ex-CIA members, and the Southie Boys, who are three guys from the South side of Boston - and they are using the items they found along the way to find the ultimate treasure, and they don't even know what the ultimate treasure is. The show is very much steeped in history, especially American history and is pretty interesting from that aspect.

Yeah, I know. Why didn't they just use Ask.com to verify what the guy was saying?

My thoughts exactly. I'm just wondering what's left for live tv next week. There must be something else beyond that room. Plus, there still must be some taped stuff to air, b/c otherwise the other teams could figure out where that room is by watching last night's episode.
