'In Search Of' episode 9 & 10 review: 'The Empire of Atlantis' is adventurous without being spectacular

The episode proved to have some redeeming elements, but leaves you with the feeling that the execution could have been better.
PUBLISHED SEP 17, 2018

'Life After Death,' the eighth episode of History's 'In Search Of,' may have been the rebooted series' most ambitious episode yet. Humanity's mortality and our ever-impending deaths are somethings that we have obsessed over since the dawn of civilization. While taking on a subject matter as heavy and subjective — take how each religion treats it, for example — could have backfired quite spectacularly, the episode did manage to cover a surprisingly broad spectrum of topics in a thorough manner.

It unfolds with an interview with Pat Johnson, a man who claims he experienced the afterlife in the brief moments he was drowning underneath a river. His explanation of how the other side presents itself — the long tunnels and hallways, the blinding lights — is something that's common amongst hundreds of thousands every year, giving rise to a suspicion of whether there is any truth to such claims after all.
