Craig Charles: UFO Conspiracies

It's little wonder the anti believers are so abundant. With garbage like this on our screens who could blame them. The whole show has absolutely no credibility what so ever. I wonder how much money Nick Pope has made from this UFO phenomenon? The moment he shows his face on these programs you know any hope of convincing the non believers is lost, and as for the so called (female) physicist the way she constantly snaps her head back and forth made me wonder if she was watching a game of tennis. Give this a big miss and don't waste your time no matter how much you may enjoy the subject.

Biggest load of rubbish - Sarah must get neck ache the amount of times she swishes her head back, or just the school of bad acting. Go back to doing astrophysics.

I barely made it to 20 mins before switching off. This makes Skinwalker Ranch look like an Emmy award winner.

Do some proper investigation for a change and get credible people.

Stop editing in the same shots for ten mins.

Do yourself a favor and make a cup of tea instead and give this a miss.

If you enjoy the subject matter go and find something much better and dont waste your time on this one, i dont think it will make it to another season (hope not).

One can only pray that they make no more of this regurgitated tosh. Limp, vapid, nothingness. A subject matter that like the Supernatural, is worthy of some serious investigation, but ends up with this kind of trashy "for entertainment" guff.

I don't know anything about the astrophysicist co-presenter, but I doubt very much that her contribution of pointing and looking worried played any part in her gaining her degree/PhD.

Unengaging, superficial nonsense. The only upside is that it will be consigned to the historical bin of TVs mos worthless crap in pretty short order.

Bubblegum for the brain.

Ancient Aliens was pretty amateurish at the beginning, too. Don't knock this one, yet. At this stage, it's great to see a new show focused on UFOs and aiming at the teen market. I love Craig Charles' work in Red Dwarf, and it's awesome he's helped put this show together, but he needs a larger crew, on location appearances, in-person interviews... etc to make this show more appealing to the general population. Still, COVID-style production means some restrictions. If he can own this like Giorgio Tsoukalos and David Childress own Ancient Aliens, this is going to be regular viewing for people like myself who enjoy watching any of the latest developments in UAP research, with some bonus science. Also, what Ancient Aliens failed at was it took them ages to have more women on the show. Here we have scientist / space journalist Sarah Cruddas in the first ep, straight out of the gate as a regular. How awesome! Would like to see some more science from her. Maybe even a five minute 'Let me explain that' segment going into some physics. Don't dumb it down too much. 7/10 for potential.

Nearly every single cut is accompanied by a 'stylised' flashing negative frame and irritating digital click that are impossible to ignore. It's supposed to give the impression that the footage was edited with super-secret covert military spy technology but it just looks cheap and causes a headache. Unnecessary.

Wanted an easy watch and a chuckle but from the limited amount I could endure the content appears to pander to 'I do my own research' types by having 'witnesses' (unburdened by pesky evidence) ramble freely about their unfounded conclusions. This is why no one takes UFO enthusiasts seriously even though there is an interesting conversation to be had about the topic in general.

I don't know whether to feel sorry for the astrophysicist or not, maybe she didn't know what she was signing up for or maybe the gig just paid really well, but I truly hope her legacy isn't spoiled or defined by video-conferencing lunatics in a garden shed - sorry I meant secret command bunker.

If aliens were genuinely exposed to present-day humanity there would probably (sadly) be no thought provoking discussions or philosophical awakening, it would just encourage mentally unwell basketcases to come forward claiming to have telepathic connections with them, sparking a new subculture of lonely outcasts to rival flat-earthers, and exposing our inability as a society to help those who are struggling to find community and acceptance in reality.

Or you can believe the positive reviews suggesting that the critiques of this trash are operations to hide the truth.
