"America Unearthed" is back for season 2 as of 11/30/13. It airs at 9 ET on Saturdays on the H2 channel. Forensic geologist Scott Wolter travels the country looking for archeological mysteries. I'm interested to see what new info he comes up with this year.
See episode overviews from H2 below. For those of you who didn't see season 1, check out that info here: http://gmonster320.blogspot.com/2013/07/america-unearthed-season-1-recap.html
It must be "Ark Of The Covenant" week since there were episodes about it on both "American Unearthed" and "Ancient Aliens". Unfortunately I don't think I'm buying that the Ark of the Covenant is in the US. I'm leaning towards Ethiopia.
"The New World Order" centered on the Denver Airport conspiracy and the Georgia Guidestones. If you haven't ever heard about either of these, you might enjoy this episode. They lost me at the part where they said the airport runways looked like swastikas. Sorry, not buying that. And if you were going to do anything secret, why would you put it under one of the busiest airports in the world?

Ark of The Covenant

Scott Wolter gets a call from a man who has a mysterious stone on his property. He's convinced that it's the "Stone of Destiny"–the stone that Jacob from the Bible rested his head on when he dreamed of a stairway to Heaven. As Scott investigates, he discovers the stone was once kept with something even more valuable. It was once kept with the Ark of the Covenant and both are rumored to have been brought to America. Scott's quest for the truth leads him to a sacred site in Ireland called the Hill of Tara and to a mysterious site in Arizona where a petroglyph depicting what could be the Ark could suggest its final resting place is right here in the United States. And, as for who brought it here, a tablet inscribed with the Ten Commandments found with a series of other artifacts could suggest a likely group of candidates–the Lost Tribes of Israel.The New World Order

Deep beneath the Denver Airport, conspiracy theorists say a revolutionary group that calls itself the New World Order is operating a secret base from which they'll eventually obliterate our central government. Scott Wolter is determined to get to the truth about this wild allegation. Along the way, he uncovers secrets about the New World Order that suggest the group is connected not just to one, but two mysterious sites in America where coded messages portending the end of the world continue to mystify and even terrify the general public. What's the truth behind the New World Order–and, will a tour of underground tunnels beneath the Denver Airport and the words of the only man who knows the truth offer new clues to suggest whether the NWO claims have merit or is just part of a modern day myth?Grade: 4 Monsters (out of 5). They're off to a good start this season. I hope they can keep up the momentum.
