Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation

This topic is one that is usually given a very one-sided treatment. For sure, the creators of this series have a strong stance and it shows, but it is all backed up. The main flaw is that it is very repetitive and keeps covering the same facts over and over.

The credibility of the investigators and witnesses makes the show worthwhile. I've always cringed when hearing people talk about UFOs. Fortunately, this isn't nonsensical rhetoric being promoted by a sketchy weirdo with a sloppy mullet and a beat up suit. It's lead by a group of top government officials from a wide range of backgrounds. If you visit To The Stars Academy's website, you'll learn that the show's investigators have worked in high-level positions at the CIA, NASA, Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works, DoD, etc.

However, there are times the show can be repetitive with information and somewhat flashy. Nevertheless, this is to keep new viewers up-to-date with the previous information and to provide a visual description of what military servicemembers have witnessed.

Overall, I would recommend just about anyone to give this show a chance.

For conspiracy theorists: this show will encourage you to think logically and rationally about data rather than blindly accepting nonsensical information and promoting it as factual. It will help you gauge this topic in a logical manner that prevents you from going 0 to light speed with respect to jumping to conclusions.

For skeptics: this show will encourage you to further gauge a taboo topic that's usually ridiculed. It will provide thought-provoking information in a logical pattern. The investigators put all of their data under a microscope of scrutiny and gladly debunk fictitious information.

Therefore, I highly encourage any level-headed skeptic or conspiracy theorist to watch this show. The investigators aren't forcefully promoting the idea of extraterrestrial life or any other conspiracies. In fact, their goal is to understand the empirical details of the data presented to them and alert the public of suspicious anomalies. I thoroughly enjoy the show for this reason.

Series is interesting. The show's quality assurance/proof readers are lousy. Just watched an episode where they are interviewing a naval aviator (photos showing his Navy uniform and A-6 aircraft) and under his screen image the writing says Air Force pilot. In the same episode they describe a soldier as a "specialist first class" There is no such rank in the Army. He can either be a private first class or a specialist fourth/fifth class. Come on, hire some college kid to proofread your video before you air it.

Who is Luis Elizondo? Did he serve in the military? Branch? Rank? College? What government branch did he work for before the Pentagon?

Seen the first four episodes so far.

It's a bit repetitive as the information is literally repeated over and over. But each episode is interesting and keeps us waiting for the next.

Surprised to see Tom deLonge in there.

I'm pretty worn out by being interested in UFO docs and shows. By the 2010's it was pretty much junk journalism and continuously re-hashed events and the same old talking head inserts. With the revelation by The New York Times about the government's ATIP program and actual military video as teased by the promos for this show I thought "finally, something new and tangible". While it's true the show does present this stuff and backs it up with some of the actual military witnesses there is one big annoying thing. It revisits the same two naval training events in which the videos were made over and over to the point of insulting the viewer's patience. I watched each episode wanting more and getting mostly the same stuff presented again and again lessening any initial enthusiasm. Still, this show could be a corner. If UFO docs and TV shows from here on out are to have any validity there needs to be in-depth cooperation with the government and not just retirees discovering redacted FOIA releases. The thing that makes the show worth at least watching the first two episodes is the times when they are getting close to this. The hard questions need definitive answers such as does the government have knowledge of extra-planetary vehicles and/or possession of any UFO parts or whatever? Does the government actually take the phenomenon as truly serious - potentially good or bad based on what? Is there an actually any relationship for instance with crop circles, cattle mutilations, and supposed geographical sighting hotspots? Finally, has an alien body or being, dead or alive, ever been actually witnessed and studied? That last one seems extremely far fetched for me to even expend the effort to type. Anyway, please going forward with this or other shows give us less of the same old same old and turn a corner into diving deep into credibility to back up these videos and the funding behind ATIP. UFOS are fascinating now make the show that explodes what is real and unknown without the constant "old hat" or "same" stuff endlessly rehashed. Please!
