This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Love the show...I started metal detecting in 1971 at the age of 14. Ringy and the King were using words that I can relate. They are down to earth,Sure they get a little crazy....so what. I felt the same way when I was pulling treasure out of the ground.... I still hunt at 60..Great hobby... great show....

I enjoy this show for the artifacts they find. But sometimes I have to change channel. I can't stand seeing two grown men act like stupid drunk monkeys. All that screaming is so annoying, and not at all necessary. They need to grow up while they still have some viewer's. Screaming for the other one to come running over to see what they have found. That is very poor acting and also annoying. How many of those items have already been dug up then buried again to make it seem like they just found it. Items don't seem to be very crusted for so many years having been buried.

There's nothing "wrong" with this show. It doesn't take itself too seriously and doesn't try to be something it's not. That said, considering the average viewers palette and how television programming has progressed over the last decade (IE complex drama's like the Shield and Breaking Bad, or the depth of Nova and Cosmos) this show offers very little in keeping my attention. The cast of Diggers are positive and enthusiastic with boyish love for what they do, however I cannot understand why. This is a show that perhaps a toddler or history buff may have on in the background, but not seek out as the primary form of entertainment. There are multiple seasons available so maybe I'm missing something...

I don't watch TV ordinarily but on a recent trip overseas I got a little bit hooked on the National Geographic Channel as they have some really cool, interesting and entertaining shows.Diggers is not one of them...On the plus side I guess the guys are VERY enthusiastic and they do visit some interesting locations.On the down side, the show is boringly monotonous and the endless 'Diggers jargon' soon grates like crazy as there is not much in their dictionary. How many times can a viewer possibly be expected to suffer phrases like 'I see round in the hole' in any 30 minute period, no matter how enthusiastically delivered? By the end of the first show I watched I was ready to smash the TV the next time I heard another one of the 'Diggers dictionary' phrases. The enthusiasm starts to grate too when the guys go off when they discover something 'awesome' - rolling on the ground, running through the forest or whatever. They remind me of 8 year old kids let loose from school for the first time in months... Oh and just about everything they seem to find is awesome. Hint: it usually isn't.This is a fine example of exactly why reality TV is killing the medium. Pure rubbish of the highest (or should that be lowest?) order.
