Thanks, Jan! But please remind me next Monday, okay? My summer tv viewing is very haphazard, lol.

Oh my, Calamity - the fun you have missed with this show! They have REAL clues that have to be solved, not "go to the cathedral of St. Mark" which doesn't really qualify as a "clue."

SPEC by konashark while we were watching the show. Inside the cryptex is a compass needle that will "show the way". Put the needle in the middle of the circle on the floor (see the little metal "cup" in the middle?) and the needle will point to the final clue - perhaps a glyph of a flag or something recognizeable as the Lincoln Memorial or the Washington Monument? But if the online winners and the show folks are gonna meet up this weekend, that is the place to do it. 'squeek'

Good thinking, Kona-pair! I'll just bet you two are right about the compass needle!

I am trying to figure out the live part. If it is like Survivor and all the cast is there, I hope to goodness that they do not give Kayte any play time. GRRR just thinking about it!

I think the first hour is a repeat from last week. The next hour is live. I may be wrong but that's how I read it. It's on for 2 hours tonight.

Melissa of TeamMissUSA said she was flying to Washington DC yesterday...so I would assume the live finale must be taking place there. I am really going to miss this show. This cast was one of the best reality show casts of all time. The were likeable, unlikeable, smart, dumb, serious, funny, fit, not so fit, and all highly entertaining.

I agree Mary. I'm going to miss it too. Hopefully they'll do another one!

I enjoyed the show this season, but I've got to say that this is one of the most anti-climatic reality show finales I've seen. The winners are revealed 18 minutes into the show, so the big tease is how much they won? Not impressed. Does anyone know if there will be a Treasure Hunters 2?

How much was the prize? I think I keep missing that.

I have to agree, this is the LAMEST finale ever... Really dull. I could not believe they only had about 10 minutes before the winners were revealed. Don't care if there is a 2nd season or not. This is no TAR. Not even close...

Mocha, they are about to announce how much they won. (The only interesting thing about the finale.)

It's not supposed to be tar. Tar is a race, this is a scavenger hunt ... big difference. Takes brains to do this. Hope they do another one.

Was a very lame finale but thank the heavens they did not give Kayte any airtime. I would have banned the show forever if they had.

I totally disagree. I was coming here to say that this is one of the best season finales. I boohooed all over the place. I was tickled as all get out to see everyone and really enjoyed the clips...and if they hadn't shown us the winner when they did, I probably would've passed out from holding my breath. I don't like having to be teased for an hour. I like time to celebrate the win and revel in the glory. I was thrilled for the Geniuses. People always complain about models and wannabee actors, but these guys were real and genuine. So nice to see the fortune going to med school and clinics! I am glad to see them get a fortune! And I enjoyed the mini treasure hunt as well. I cried right along with Scott. That had to mean a lot to him right then.

Yes, Ladytex! A very different show from TAR - which I also LOVE! This is their first finale - people learn and grow with practice!!
