    What was the best UFO related series on television?

    Surprised I'm the only one that voted for UFOs Over Earth. Yeah, it was only three episodes but those three episodes were pretty darned good. Wondering how many of you actually saw it. I don't think it failed to get extended because of lack of quality. If I remember correctly James Carrion said...

    James Fox -- July 1, 2012

    The Travis Walton episode was pretty amusing. Minutes spent on a vehicle stuck in the mud and Rider stuck in a tree. What does that have to do with UFOs? The night investigation was especially funny in this one. The event took place in 1975. That's 37 years ago! Do they really think the...

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    Funny that so many people now consider UFO Hunters to have been a good show. At the time it was running I recall everyone complaining about it. My take is that the first season was mostly pretty decent, the second so-so, and the third ridiculous. But it was definitely better than Chasing UFOs...

    Gun camera shots

    That first shot reminds me of a video in a fake UFO doc that aired a while back called KGB Files or something like that. It was hosted by Roger Moore. The entire thing was a put-on by the production company. Probably not the same thing but I recall something similar-looking in it.

    James Fox -- July 1, 2012

    I don't think History Channel had anything to do with the making of I Know What I Saw. He shopped it around a lot of places before they bought the rights to it. In fact, he had wanted it to play in theaters. Fox sure is taking a lot of flak for Chasing UFOs. Now I'm hearing he's gonna' leave...

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    I actually thought the third episode was better than the first two. Yeah, it had hoaxer extraordinaire Romanek on it but at least they were skeptical of him. I wonder what he was thinking when they said they saw an alien face in his window. I'm thinking it might have been something like, "Wtf? I...

    James Fox -- July 1, 2012

    Well, in 2 episodes of Chasing UFOs the only interesting bit of UFO material I saw was the retired cop talking about a CE2 in the 70s. That was approximately 3 minutes out of a combined 90. Little disappointed by some of the things Fox said in the interview. He appears to continue to be into...

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    Well, I've seen it now and it certainly ain't all that great. On the plus side the woman in it is presented in a more realistic, earthy way much of the time than the hotty-totty thing she had going on in the trailer. And I thought the former PO in ep 2 talking about a 1978 CE2 came across as...

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    It blows that UFOs Over Earth was on for only 3 episodes. It was the best UFO reality TV show I've seen.

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    Meh, I'll still watch it even if it is silly. It's not like there's any better ones to watch instead. But I can see this trailer having that effect on people. Nearly all of the comments to it at youtube are negative. Hopefully it won't be as bad as the trailer (How could it possibly be?). I sure...

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    Yeah, I recognized him the second time I watched it. I don't blame him. If you want to do a show about UFOs or the paranormal nowadays producers demand that it be ridiculous. But my goodness, that trailer takes the cake. It looks like a video game.

    Chasing UFOs - National Geographic

    This has got to be one of the most ridiculous trailers for a UFO doc I've seen: When first watching it I was thinking it must be a joke, that at any moment the narrator would chuckle and say, "No, we aren't going to be that kind of show." But it never happened. Gotta' admit though, that...

    Prometheus

    I don't know. I really haven't given the title of the ship any thought. I've tried to avoid talking about the plot too much so I don't ruin it for people. A few things I'll add is that it probably has less action in it than any film in the Alien franchise, maybe even less so than the first one...

    Prometheus

    Oh, and btw, the producers tried to ruin Aliens. The cut Cameron wanted to go with was a good deal longer than what ended up in theaters. The studio forced him to take a hatchet to it. So against his will he cut out several scenes (One of which involved Ripley being told that her daughter had...

    Prometheus

    The first two told far simpler stories, especially the first one. Yes, not everything is spelled out in clear black and white in Prometheus but I suspect that A) Some things are being held back for a sequel and B) Scott might have been forced by the studio to hack it to get the length down (This...

    Destroying the 1997 Phoenix Lights UFO case

    Well, there's over a million people living in Phoenix and just a few dozen talking about a giant, solid V on that night. Think about your own neighborhood and ask yourself if just 1% of them are capable of exaggerating things. In these situations I'm always reminded of this hoaxed UFO clip...

    Prometheus

    I went and saw it on the ninth and liked it. It wasn't as action-oriented as I expected but that's probably a good thing. Some critics have been complaining about questions being left unanswered but the impression I got is that a sequel is coming... and that's fine by me. It does have some...

    Destroying the 1997 Phoenix Lights UFO case

    Yep, I mentioned him too, although not by name. Actually there were several witnesses that said it was airplanes flying in formation but they have been ignored in favor of those talking about solid triangles the size of football stadiums. My view remains that the Terry Proctor video proves there...

    Paratopia

    When they started charging to listen I figured it wouldn't be long. If there's one thing people associate with the internet it's the notion of "free of charge." There's so many paranormal talk shows that can be listened to for nothing that you'd better have a very big name or be offering...
