El enigma extraterrestre

The host and his offshoots spend about 70% of the time telling the audience what they plan to do and what they're hoping to do or see. It's just pointless filler and gives the feel of a bubblegum documentary that makes the whole thing feel fake.

Despite the underlying information likely being good, this completely misses the mark and could have been presented so much better. The American approach to documentaries is just too emotional and comes across as a reality TV show.

Would love to see NatGeo or a non-sensationalist journalist take this on. George Knapp ruins it and seems fixated on creating sensationalist mystique rather than objectively presenting. This is the American way.

Very disappointing.

Feels like a generic scripted American show, like Pawn Stars. Doesn't feel genuine at all and there's really nothing new they're adding.

It's more like they're dragging it out, trying to find someone who can add a little drama to fill their thin script.

George is trying so hard to sell this, but what new info are we really getting?

Every bit of information we get has already been talked about, you're better off going in the deep end on YouTube instead.

I don't really have much more to say about this utter horse manure, so I'm just filling up the required quota of words, just like they did with this show.

George Knapp is one of the very first and longest running UFO Journalists. This show does an incredible job of weaving together new investigative segments along with the major incidents for newcomers while adding depth and for some (like the Phoenix Lights) with new information. George is fun to watch, with a nice blend of sincerity and levity - and most importantly he's level headed.

One thing I was wondering - why didn't George bring up Bob Lazar, as he was the one who first broke that story?

I hope this show continues as "disclosure" marches along. It leaves off on a cliff hangar, potentially boding well for a season 2.

Thanks for all the hard work, George and Crew!

Looking forward to the congressional UAP hearings next week (Nov 13th).

For example, with no spoilers, when you have two story lines, two investigations if you will, made to appear to take place simultaneously so we cut back and forth between the dive team and the south American team - the viewer knows this isn't serious - when we have the investigator reinact scenes and fiegn reactions as if it's the first time he's heard this - the viewer knows this isn't a serious documentary - AND IT'S A SERIOUS SUBJECT - but Knapp has been left out in the cold for too many decades and now appears to need vindication and barring that well... Noteriety for being an OG believer (oh and financial compensation apparently) but ultimately this is a 'serious reality show' and not a hard hitting objectively bent documentary. ((and don't get me started on the 'including a skeptic' tactic (let alone the 'skeptic' himself))

FINALLY I CAN ENJOY QUALITY UFO JOURNALISM WITHOUT HAVING TO LISTEN TO JEREMY CORBELL JACK HIMSELF OFF THE WHOLE TIME YESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!! This was my favorite ufo documentary in recent years. George asks all the right questions and provides some really interesting evidence. There's only one scene with Jeremy Corbell and this was the best choice ever. The only reason I've ever payed any attention to Corbell is because of Knapp. Taking one star away because I kind of wish it was just George the whole time and not CIA guy and pilot lady also interviewing witnesses. They're much more tolerable than corbel but I felt like they were just there to be skeptical of lies from witnesses rather than ask good questions. Having a skeptic point of view is great but no reason to have cast for that. I think if was just George addressing common skeptic points it would've been perfect. Replacing them with any other respected ufologst like George could've worked better too. George you can tell is a genuine guy and has been an amazing journalist his whole life. I'm so happy we got this treat and I really hope we get another season.
