    How did they get a 2nd season?

    I'll be honest. When I first started to watch this series I thought that it would be more serious, but I was way off. If you cannot tell that it's scripted then you haven't watched it enough. When you go into the "fringe" side of science or the paranormal, you need to stay a skeptic. Granted, a couple on the show are to an extent, but William Birnes has no business on this show. I'm pretty sure though he was the biggest reason History bought the idea and put it on the air. The science part is nice and it does help some what in explaining a few possible situations, but other than that there is just way too much "its alien and it was a flying saucer and you need to believe it" and it just ruins the show. I used to enjoy the ufo shows, but this is just way off and the fact that the History channel is putting money and time into it is sad. Heck, the narrator has more air time than anyone.

    Interesting show with awful subtitles

    I quite like this show and they do investigate some interesting cases but the subtitles are just awful. I know that sounds like a petty complaint but if you've seen it you'll know exactly what I mean.

    If they're playing a recording or phone call they flash up subtitles. Not just ordinary subtitles but each individual word appears on the screen in a random place really quickly until you find yourself wanting to look away because it's just so annoying. It's not like you can't understand what's being said so it's purely a design choice.

    Other than that it's a pretty good show if you're interested in this kind of thing.

    Exposed conspiracy cross-breeding Cows & Humans inside womb of COWS for elite to buy spare body parts show got canceled.

    Ufologist Bill Birnes shared inside details dealing with U.S. and the global elite dark agenda, sick-minded projects and the UFO (Nazi UFO?)scientific factual connection catching them in the act 3- times!...then the show got canceled mysteriously?...Elite obviously control the media! Wake up people.

    Birnes knows that the History Channel canceled UFO Hunters for a variety of reasons, including the high cost of the show, internal changes at the network, and also because some of the episodes such as on Area 51 were revealing too much information. But unless your a programmed average idiot you can see obviously those facters don't limit other shows that are merely entertainment going 12-Seasons so why would a highly publicaly sought after current subject as UFOs only go 3 seasons with the network Rep. saying to Birnes before the season was over "You steeped on things bigger than you...this is your last season so enjoy it"?!!!.

    One episode about anomalies and secret alien bases in the Dulce, New Mexico area (The actual Rosewell) was particularly controversial.

    In the program, they spoke with tribal police officers who described seeing various strange animals such as foxes with heads of rabbits. Gabe Valdez, a former state trooper, witnessed a helicopter hovering over a dead cow-- the cow was with calf, so a veterinarian was called to remove it. According to Valdez, what they found was a bovine fetus with a human head, and he took photos of it which were featured in the episode which aired in March of 2009.

    In April of 2009, a bill was submitted in the Senate to make it a crime to interbreed humans and animals...SCIENCE FACT! Only a average idiot who cannot just would continue to pretend to be a skeptic that there are no conspiracy. The show being canceled is proof positive if not he content itself.

    Has its good qualities.

    If you can get past the gimmicky "hey, people think this is cool/I think I'm cool" , flashy, lame overly dramatic crap, catering to the stupis, it definitely has some very interesting things. The research is cool, the case they study are cool, but their.. or HIS constantly trying to be "cool" or him concluding everything is "definitely extraterrestrial" even when there's no conclusive evidence and/or it even suggests otherwise, can be a bit tiresome.

    Mostly older U.F.O. material warmed up.........

    First, "U.F.O. Hunters" is slightly better than another series by "The History Channel" called "Monster Quest". Although both documentaries appear to be chasing smoke, the experiments by John Tindall elevate "U.F.O. Hunters" to slightly above average. The various episodes are a hit or miss affair, with "Invasion Texas 2008" the most recent report. Although a believer - skeptic balance is presented, Bill Birnes of "U.F.O. Magazine" comes across as insincere, trying to defend an indefensible position. If you enjoy "fringe science", quirky characters, questionable research, biased investigations, and searching old "crash sites", this is for you. - MERK

    • Trivia
      Fans have compared series leads Bill Birnes, Patrick Uskert and Ted Ackworth to The Lone Gunmen from X-Files : Aux frontières du réel (1993) and The lone gunmen - Au coeur du complot (2001), who similarly investigated UFO phenomenon and conspiracy theories. And much like their counterparts in The X-Files & The Lone Gunmen, Bill Birnes publishes his own magazine, appropriately named UFO Magazine.
