Apollo 11: Le Grand Complot?

The main character in this series is a guy who makes a living from writing new age nonsense/spiracy fiction books. Expect nothing less than absurd theories based on nothing more than an opinion and a lack of understanding technical issues with a large dose of drama! The media does love to push disinfo and ignorance on the masses...

Personally, I'm all for a bit of conspiracy theory mischief... but there were obvious, glaring basic flaws in the history and moreover, the appropriate context of the same from outset (the WWII et al history is the bit I know about - albeit hopeless on the science stuff admittedly!). However, when these sort of shows appear, they may be great entertainment, but it is only human to judge the rest of it against the stuff you really know about - so sorry to say, it's slick, entertaining, but really though in my opinion - absolute twaddle from start to finish....

If you want to watch science, go elsewhere. If you want to watch a bunch of nuts ignore scientific evidence while offering none of their own, this is the show for you. I'm not exactly sure why this was even created. The conspiricists can't answer simple questions like "why"... why would Russia lie? Why would we lie? Why are you offering other conspiracies as proof of this conspiracy?

This should be avoided. It is moronic.

I'll admit I do like watching Ancient Aliens. It's a guilty pleasure of mine. Still to call any of the theories or evidence shown on that show legitimate is a stretch. I seem to get the same vibe from this show. In fact I had to turn this show off at about half way through out of frustration. These three "experts" (one of whom is a regular fixture on the aforementioned Ancient Aliens) throw out some of the most absurd pseudo-scientific ideas and recount historic evidence out of context in a weak attempt to lend some credence to their conspiratorial "theories." I also find it strange that an astronaut had never heard of Operation: Paperclip nor knew of it's role in the origins of the US space program.

There have been more in-depth research done into the legitimacy of the moon landing conducted over the last 50-years. I'd recommend you seek those sources out if your interested in the subject. This is just mindless pop-culture popcorn entertainment in the vain of Ancient Aliens. I'd only recommend this series if you just want some noise on in the background while you do other things around your home!

The show has a credibility problem. We are supposed to believe that a former NASA astronaut didn't know that the American and Russian space programs were headed by ex-Nazi rocket engineers.
