I watched this docuseries this week.
It is very good. I am not a /r/UFOs lurker, but I do enjoy hearing these stories from time to time.
Aside from being produced by Amblin, this series has some things going for it:
- You can watch it in any order you wish
- There is no real call to action, and very few documentary tricks used… I didn’t stop to see if the people bein interviewed actually worked for NASA, though
- 4 episodes, 4 countries, 4 perspectives and reactions, 4 classic cases
- The Ariel School Incident
- The Stephenville, Texas, sightings
- The Broad Haven Triangle
- The Fukushima Sightings
- The episodes are self-contained discussion starters
I’d only ever heard about the Ariel School Incident.
Anyway, if you are into this or not, and you want to see something presented in a level-headed way that crosses cultural boundaries, this is a decent docuseries.
Oh yeah I love UFO docs. They’re almost invariably some shade of crap, but that’s partially why I love them. As a phenomenon I do believe there’s something there, but I’m agnostic on whether it’s aliens or what. There’s just too much solid sensor evidence over the years that points to something weird going on to just discount all UFO/UAP sightings as either bullshit or “regular” aerial vehicles or whatever.
