What do you think? Have you seen Blood & Treasure? Will you watch season two?
Enjoy this show, it is fun to watch
Love the show can’t wait for the next episodes
Cancel it
This show is terrible! Don’t renew it.
I really enjoy it and look forward to it each week, it is so different from all of the same old cop and doctor shows. It’s fun filled action in exotic places, yes it’s like Indy but who doesn’t love Indy. So glad it’s been renewed!!!
I like it, and yes it can be corny, but the others are right that it should’ve wrapped up about three episodes ago.
I liked their previous show better Human Target.
Matt Barr’s character reminds me of the one he played on Sleepy Hollow.
Absolutily the best new show on TV. To say I love it would be a vast understatement. It is so captivating I cannot wait for the next chapter in Blood Treasure. 10 stars for this program. If you are not watching, shame on you. get started right now and you will love this show like so many of us.
I enjoy all aspects of the show. The history mixed with action and comedy makes for fun entertainment. Keep up the fun!
Although I am a hetero female, I love to watch Sofia Pernas. Something about her. The dialogue in this series is fairly cornball and plot lines are a bit predictable, but I enjoy it nevertheless.
This show is one of the best network shows in a long time. Too many shows are reality based and include police, fire, rescue, etc. This is way outside that box!
Seriously ABC cancelled Whiskey Cavalier with 6 good actors, fun well written scripts & better ratings. This show is less than a sophomoric effort in all aspects. This is when network TV makes me want to bang my head against the wall. People we all deserve better.
In total agreement! No comparison with Whiskey Cavalier.
We watched a lot of the episodes but stopped w/the last one. Got reallllllly tired of the silly story about finding Cleopatra….. we just didn’t care any longer. It should have wrapped up in maybe 2 shows so they could move on to another story. Sorry, but it got goofy & boring. And so many people getting killed was ridiculous.
Glad that these good show did not get canceled l love blood and treasure
Blood & Treasure is good
Great sh0w – Love it – compared to Indiana Jones.
Great decision by CBS. This is a fun-filled action packed show with enough chemistry between the 2 leading stars to ignite a rocket launcher!
