The Unbelievable with Dan Aykroyd

It is hard to put into words how bad this is. It is the lowest of the lowest tabloid filth you can't even possibly imagine. I would give it -10 if I could. I hope when I grow old I will not be in a position to give my name, and with that, my reputation, and everything I did in the past to this kind of stupidity and total madness. Dan Aykroyd, really? What happened? Where did it go so wrong? This is the sort of program that makes certain politicians viable contenders for office: fake news selling them as truth to us. Doing so by 'experts' you may have never heard of or seen them in a completely different field (of their expertise). This is another low point in American television. A shame, really.

I love Dan Akroyd but this show is very mediocre. There's one with Danny Trejo now too. They all repeat the same stories and they've been done to death. Mysteries at the Museum is the best show to watch when it comes to this type of show. I was excited to watch this show when I first saw it because I love these kinds of shows but every episode so far, what's covered in the episode is something I've seen many of times before. I'd recommend watching Mysteries at the Museum if this is they type of show you're looking to watch. It's such a well done show. This show is extremely boring and I'm not a fan of the format. It's the same kind of format as mysteries of the abandoned or the proof is out there. Just a constantly cuts to numerous different people back and forth. I would find this show a lot better if it was just Dan Akroyd instead telling the story rather then throwing in all these other people.

The show is alright. Some interesting "cases", but most of them have already been covered on other shows ad finitem.

Additionally, most of the "experts" are actual scholars and researchers, then there are the the likes of Adam Richman (or a Jeopardy! Contestant). AFAIK Adam's an expert on obesity, overeating, and mayhaps a wee bit on food... so why is he commenting on any other topic (i.e. Paranormal incidents, archaeology, infectious diseases)?

Far too many cut aways to the commenters and their ofttimes inane, irrelevant, or repetitive critiques.

I may give it another couple episodes though I have little hope for improvment. A seond season seems unlikely unless contractually obligated.

What can I say? I'm a sucker for these kinds of shows. Having the man himself Dan Aykroyd host this was great. The show itself is exactly what you are probably thinking it is. It's a show about unbelievable stories from around the world. Opinions, theories, interviews with the talking heads. It checks all the boxes. I know this type of docuseries isn't for everybody but for what it is it is pretty damn great. I also like how this show fits in with Dan's personal beliefs on things. It's nice to see celebs going this route. If you enjoy William Shatners Weird or What or the Unexplained you'll enjoy this.

With the background of Mr. Daniel Edward Aykroyd (no spoilers!) and also as a Canadian... I trust that he wouldn't "BS" any of us for simply a paycheque. So.! If you would ever what to talk or listen to someone, about unexplainable occurrences, who are you gonna call?

Like most of these type of shows it does a wonderful job at peaking interest. Loose ends, open plots etc. What is true and what isn't? The answer is; you really do not know. Until someone factually, without a doubt proves any of the million mysteries or mysterious happenings that have apparently occurred since the existence of the universe... just enjoy the questionable.
