''Treasure Hunters'' is a reality television series on NBC (US) and Global Television (Canada) in which ten teams of three solve puzzles and complete challenges in hopes of solving the ultimate puzzle and winning the grand prize. Teams travel across the United States and Europe in search of seven "artifacts" which when assembled will "lead to the key. Find the key, and find the treasure." The challenges and puzzles are spliced with American history, and the ultimate goal is to find a hidden treasure, leading the show to be compared on various occasions to the film National Treasure. The value of the treasure in the series was revealed on the season finale to be $3,000,000. The two-hour premiere episode aired on June 18, 2006 and beginning June 26 the series moved to its regular Monday night timeslot. The season finale was broadcast live on August 21, 2006. The Hunt is similar in format to ''The Amazing Race''. Key differences include: * Teams consist of three members as opposed to ''The Amazing Races usual two * The start location of each leg is not necessarily the end point of the previous leg * Teams start each leg at the same time; ''Amazing Race'' teams have staggered starts based on previous leg finish order * ''Amazing Race'' teams may take no electronic devices with them; ''Treasure Hunters'' teams are provided several pieces of electronic equipment, including: * * a Motorola RAZR cell phone, by which they receive messages and information from host Laird Macintosh; * * additional phones they may use to call other teams and each other; * * a laptop computer with "special access" to Ask.com and Orbitz.com; * * a Garmin GPSMAP 60C GPS unit * The show focuses more closely on the solving of clues and tasks, which are much more difficult and cryptic than in ''the Amazing Race''; ''the Amazing Race'' uses comparatively simple clues, and focuses more closely on the interpersonal relationships within the teams. * Clues sometimes offer multiple solution methods, and false solutions are incorporated into them. ==Teams and rankings== Notes: Red numbers indicate the team was eliminated. +Team Grad Students dropped out after Leg 2 because of injury; Team Brown Family was brought back to replace them. §Teams Air Force and Southie Boys were both eliminated at the same time at the end of Leg 8, once Team Geniuses found the treasure. ‡Leg was shown over two episodes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Treasure Hunters (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
