News of the release of tenth season of The Curse of Oak Island has not been shared, as the show is currently still airing the ninth season.
For nine seasons, with the anticipation of a tenth, The Curse of Oak Island has been one the most popular shows on the History channel.
The treasure hunting reality television series which is fronted by real-life brothers, Marty and Rick Lagina, is recorded to draw an audience of three million viewers.
The show is currently in its ninth season, and it was during this season of The Curse of Oak Island that the reality television series surpassed the hundred-and-fiftieth episode mark.
The last episode to have aired was the Chamber of Secrets, which aired on Tuesday, 11 January 2022.
What is The Curse of Oak Island about?
For over nine years, viewers of the History channel have watched The Curse of Oak Island.
According to IMDb, the show is about, “Rick and Marty Lagina, two brothers from Michigan with a life-long interest in the mystery of Oak Island, renew efforts to discover the legendary treasure with sophisticated machinery.”
Throughout the years, Marty and Rick have had recurring visiting experts and friends of the show that have also gained their own popularity through their appearances on the show.
Like Dave Blankenship, who was part of the show for the first eight seasons as an expert on Oak Island. Blankenship seems to no longer be part of the show due to his precarious age, and the injuries he has already suffered.
When is the new season of Curse of Oak Island?
On Tuesday, 2 November 2021, the History channel marked the return of The Curse of Oak Island for its ninth season. The arrival of the ninth season came not long after the end of the eighth season back in May 2021.
The eighth season of the show began in November 2020, and had a 25-episode run before it concluded.
For fans of the show, the return of season nine marked a continuation of the ongoing search of the ultimate treasure trove hidden somewhere underneath Oak Island. The current running season marked the landmark of the hundred-and-fifty episode.
With the tenth episode of season nine, Chamber of Secrets, the show marked the milestone. Considering that the show is still airing season nine, season 10 has not been publicly confirmed.
Has The Curse of Oak Island changed throughout the years?
For fans that have watched the show since its genesis, they have noticed some changes in the personalities of the show.
Considering that the show is anchored by the Lagina Brothers, Rick and Marty, fans have noticed a change in the brothers.
Viewers believe that in recent seasons, Rick has taken over as the “new Marty.”
The sentiments stem from Rick seemingly becoming the optimistic one of the two brothers, unlike the first seasons of the show when Marty was the optimistic brother that saw any clue as a chance to get closer to uncovering the ultimate treasure cove.
Could The Curse of Oak Island, season 10 not happen?
For television viewers that are not accustomed to the series, reading the premise thereof can sound like the story is one-note or flat.
However, fans of the show have remained hooked on the continuous treasure hunt and the relationship the Lagina brothers have.
The show is estimated to draw a sizable audience of three million viewers per episode.
Therefore, considering the number of viewers the series attracts, along with the open-ended premise of the search for the treasure, The Curse of Oak Island will likely have a long running time on the channel.
What can be expected from the rest of season nine of The Curse of Oak Island?
Currently running the ninth season of the show, The Curse of Oak Island marked the hundred-and-fiftieth episode with Chamber of Secrets, which IMDb explains as, “The fellowship is zeroing in on when the Oak Island mystery began and evidence that the swamp is hiding the wreck of a massive sailing vessel is mounting.”
The eleventh episode is titled A Boatload of Clues and will see “As Rick, Marty and the team uncover astonishing revelations in the Oak Island swamp, they also make a potentially breakthrough discovery in the Money Pit.”
Conclusion
The Curse of Oakland is the History channel’s surprise hit reality treasure hunting series.
The show draws an estimated three million viewers per episode, which is sizable considering the arguably cyclical premise of two brothers seeking treasure on Oak Island.
Having first premiered in 2014, The Curse of Oak Island is currently in its ninth season. Moreover, with the tenth episode of season nine, Chamber of Secrets, the series marked the hundred-and-fiftieth episode. However, no word has been shared on whether a tenth season is in the cards yet.
