I enjoyed every second of this show, even with the awful female actors (I could not stand their girlish squeals for everything that moved in the sand). I see that many have bad things to say about this show and even about Dr Hawass, but I think this show reveals exactly what it is like to be in Egypt, and what it is like to go searching for things.Many think Egyptology is just walking into a Pyramid and finding a Pharaoh, however, as shown by this show, it takes a lot more than just a few digs in the sand to discover something. I hope to see another season of this show.

I read all the reviews about 'chasing mummies' and it lead me to want to find out for myself what others had written about, I have to say the program is as what other reviews say, it's complete rubbish! If I were in charge to make the decisions for programs to be aired on the history channel then 1.I wouldn't have given this program the time of day and 2.If I had (and clearly someone has) then I would expect the powers that be to ask me for my resignation. I lasted more than most with about 15 minutes of viewing time, I found it too scripted and the 'acting' too unbelievable to warrant this program as a 'documentary'. I would have to say the program 'Big Brother' has better actors than in this program, needless to say if you want to take a look and see for yourselves then so be it, be warned though as you'll be disappointed.

I loathed this staged platform for a ridiculous narcissist so much that I registered on this site in order to leave the first review of my 50 years.This program isn't just a waste of time--it's an offense. There's only a fragment of archeology, the vast majority of the show is devoted to providing a stage for a ... I'm kind of at a loss for a description for this pompous, arrogant, self-aggrandizing nincompoop's arrogant tantrums.I vow to never, ever contaminate my television screen with this excuse for entertaining educational program again.

Avoid this program at all costs. That is if you thought it was a real documentary series. I tuned in because I wanted to see a fresh documentary on the subject of Egyptology, but what i got was something that I found hard to believe, literally. It's one of the worst scripted unreality shows to come down the pike since The Hills. I hope that telling you this show is obviously scripted, doesn't count as a spoiler? If you want a real documentary, look elsewhere. If you want to see bad acting from Dr Hawass, tune in. I'm sure i wont be the only one saying this here. The Facebook page for The History Channel, is full of people laughing at how ridiculous this show was.
