Just
when you thought there couldn’t be any more really interesting buried
places, Don Wildman is back sinking to new depths. (Sorry, I couldn’t
resist). The 11 episodes of season two find Wildman returning to
Germany, this time to explore Berlin’s hundreds of World War II
bunkers. In New York, it’s secret societies, not unlike his trip to Boston in
season one.
It’s amazing what’s down there. Wildman also checks out
Soviet bases, Mayan ruins and Washington, D.C. Does he find Dick
Cheney’s bat cave? No, but he does gain access to all sorts of
underground super-bunkers and high-tech control centers. We even get a
glimpse of the secret location under a Virginia resort, where members
of Congress and the White House would have gone in case of a nuclear
attack. National treasure, indeed. Grade A-
