I was looking up a movie for my wife called "Legend of the Lost" and another series came up called "Legends of the Lost" with Megan Fox. I found out I can watch this for free at Amazon Prime streaming so since I was interested in her subject matter I might do that.
By the way Legend of the Lost(1957) stars John Wayne and Sophia Loren and other big stars as well.

Legends of the Lost with Megan Fox is an American docu-series starring and co-created by Megan Fox that premiered on December 4, 2018 on the Travel Channel.[1]
Synopsis[edit]
In the docu-series, we learn that "Fox has been obsessed since an early age with the history of ancient cultures, people and places — always questioning their documented story." We follow her "embarking on an epic and personal journey across the globe" where Fox, archaeologists and experts will "re-examine history, asking tough questions and challenging the conventional wisdom that has existed for centuries". Among other themes, the series will consider whether female Amazon warriors really existed and whether the Trojan War was a historical event.[2][3]
Production[edit]
The series was originally titled Mysteries and Myths with Megan Fox.[2] In July 2018, shooting for the documentary was being done in Istanbul, Turkey.[4]

Academic criticism[edit]
The program has attracted media criticism for its mix of historical fact and pseudoarchaeology: writing in the Washington Post, David S. Anderson highlighted Fox's self-professed interest in ancient astronauts theories and the show's "complicated relationship with academic authorities", and accused her of using academics "as steppingstones to offer unsubstantiated claims about the ancient world." He concluded "Promoting “alternative facts” comes with a cost. “Legends of the Lost” may have entertained and may even have sparked curiosity in the ancient world, but it has also profoundly blurred the lines between truth and fiction."[6]
