History Channel - Chasing Mummies: Season 1 (2010) Information Chasing Mummies with Dr. Zahi Hawass Digging up ancient treasures is dirty and dangerous business, and nobody knows that better than the legendary Egyptologist Dr. Zahi Hawass. History’s cameras follow closely as he and his cadre of fellows unearth astonishing finds and tackle some of the world's greatest archaeological riddles, from who built the pyramids to the location of Cleopatra's tomb. It's a whirlwind tour, led by the man who holds the keys to Egypt's greatest antiquities and rules his world like a modern-day pharaoh. Unfiltered, entertaining, exciting and suspenseful, "Chasing Mummies" lets viewers share in the thrills and hardships facing the team and crew as they toil to reveal what lies beneath the sand. With its wealth of historical information and blow-by-blow coverage of world-altering discoveries, this series breaks new ground—literally. Part 1: Stuck First aired: Jul/14/2010 Zahi is supervising the restoration of the Step Pyramid, the oldest pyramid in Egypt. It's there that we meet the new members of his fellowship program: Late to show up, Lindsay nearly loses her job before it actually begins! Meanwhile, Fellowship Coordinator Dr. Allan Morton realizes the erroneous assignment of Zoe to the program. Allan gets an earful from Zahi for his mistake before Zoe begs him for the chance to go inside the Step Pyramid for some photos...after all, she's traveled so far! Zoe goes deep inside the bowels of the pyramid with a cameraman, then gets stuck and locked inside. Zahi races back to Saqqara to open up the pyramid and save them both.

This show is excellent, it follows the DR around the pyramids and sites of ancient Egypt, the Dr himself is a very focused intollerant man who expects maximum respect and effort from anyone in his company, he comes across very arrogant in a way, but you get to see though him and it's just his method to ensure everyone around is taking the subject seriously, a fantastic man who is unique, if you are only thinking of watching this I recommend you do so asap, it's filmed so well when they crawl through small spaces you feel the claustraphobia yourself. |
