Help With A Treasure Show

There was once a treasure show on TV and then for some reason it was taken off the air, why I don't know. I was wondering if any of you may know what it was called and why it's no longer airing. It was hosted by a young lady by the name of Kirsten who was drop-dead gorgeous in my opinion. Ya gotta love a lady that doesn't mind getting their hands dirty. They would travel around the country collecting gems - old bottles - etc. If you remember anything about this show I'd be curious to know what happened to it.

Well I answered my own question by doing what I should have done in the first place, I did a little search and found it. Here's a link for those whom may be interested: http://www.travelchannel.com/TV_Shows/T ... irsten_Gum

I remember that show Greg,

At first I thought you were talking about Massey's Gold Show, but I dropped that thought when the words "drop-dead gorgeous" came up I knew you weren't talking about Ole' Buzzard.

Greg that show is still airing on satellite, just saw a quick glimse of it a couple of day ago. I think it's on Discovery or one of the other channels like that. Never thought she was anything special though, but then again Linda is the only one that's ever interested me (whispering -- she watches this board so I have to say that) LOL. Now the Massey (Old Buzzard) show that was on TV. Well I can tell you a few things about that. My old partner Jack who died was Buzzards friend for years. And even went on a few shows with him. It was all salted gold and set up to look good, but it was fake. He made a fortune doing that. His show ended right after he died. He was a pretty cool guy. Knew how to make money selling memberships too!

Oh yeah, I think everyone knew that the gold was salted for the show. Especially the real Prospectors of the world. But Hey! He only had thirty minutes to show the process and the results. Takes me longer than that to just find my gold pan and shovel. :o

I really miss Ole' Buzzard and his.... "IT DON'T GET NO BETTER THAN THIS"

Don't worry about Iggy Don. She's not looking. I have her busy in a Yahoo Messenger window over on another screen. I'll keep her tied up there for a while so you can "Cruise"! :)

Yes he got a lot of people really interested in gold prospecting and he was a nice guy (like I said). He got them to go out and get the fever. And probably 99% of them had fun so it really didn't hurt anyone. At least that's the way I look at it. Knowing the other side of what went on is why I never joined. We are sitting here next to each other laughing. That's us though.

That IS multitasking IGGY! I knew it, I knew it! It was taking you too long to reply, I knew you were splitting your attention somehow! :lol:
