This could be an interesting show but the "end of the world" drama from the host and the loud suspenseful type music is ridiculous. It would have been great if it was more like an actual documentary instead of it turning out to seem like a stupid "crazy conspiracy" type show. It is awesome that they have actual eye witnesses but their stories are never documented in full.....just poorly edited cut up bits. LET US HEAR THE WITNESSES STORIES IN FULL. Now I believe in UFOs. I have seen one myself but this show does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to change anyone's mind from them believing it is all a bunch of "crazy conspiracy freaks". It is nothing but poor filming and directing........a real shame.
As a former journalist, and now Information Technology professional at a major research university, I appreciate the attempt to be fact-based, and the compelling content. But good gawd...I'm also a musician, and whoever did the audio mixing needs to be immediately fired...it makes the series almost unwatchable. So much absolutely unnecessary "dramatic/cinematic" noise that it makes hearing the actual dialogue almost impossible at times. My wife and I saw something we can't explain the the skies of Southern Illinois for over 45 minutes a few years ago and we'd like to know more about this phenomenon...I don't need the nonstop, inane cinematic scoring drowning out what everyone is saying. Whoever mixed the audio needs to find a new profession.
An interesting new show, in a crowded sector, with some strong witnesses, hence the title & good evidence, even if we have seen some of it before, the stories are told well, the presenter is engaging & with his own backstory to add weight to the show.
However, this is all marred for me, as we listen to 'actual' testimony from UFO witnesses with dramatic, not-so-background music, & idiotically devoid of subtitles!! I could barely hear 10% of what was being said, just a muffled voice & loud music. Why was the commentary not transcribed into subtitles, it seems so obvious that this is required, the omission is just beyond belief.
Upon watching other episodes, loud music over muffled old recordings happens over & OVER again; such a shame as they're really interesting people talking, it's like an intern is making production decisions on this show. Dramatic music is fine, but not when it's a louder than the most important thing on the show - witnesses telling their story - ridiculous!!
The vast choice of things to watch in the 21st century, means that there is simply no room for schoolboy errors such as this & it damages enjoyment of this otherwise fascinating subject matter.

Just ignore what these haters think about this show and how they whine about it. This is a good show for those who love watching shows like Ancient Aliens, Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation, etc. Watched 6 episodes so far and probably 1 episode was not that interesting but the other 5 episodes was interesting to watch.
Can't avoid comparing this one with Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation. While the creators of Unidentified choose to focus on a recent history and specific set of witnesses and interviewees (current and ex military and gov agencies employees), UFO Witness has much richer history to explore and wider circle of mostly credible witnesses and interviewees.
UFO Witness partially relays on Project Blue Book, their archive and it's former investigator Jennie Zeidman. I found that a great choice because PBB is a treasure cove of credible and unexplainable ufo cases. They also explore more recent sightings, government coverup, alien tech and related gov programs and more.
Biggest minus for me is tempo, too often they rush through cases and topics that deserve much more examination. Overdramatization could be also taken down a notch but it's not insufferable.
Worth a watch, 6.8
