Unidentified: Inside America's UFO Investigation

The show has a message that people need to wake up to the fact that these unexplained crafts and events do exist. However the show itself is most likely only going to appeal to those who are already interested. However I do think it stands the best chance out of the many shows of a similar theme to convert skeptics.

There are many experts and knowledgeable people working on this team who are investigating strange incidents that seem to involve UFOs. They present a clear and educated investigation into these events along with interviews.

They do tend to repeat themselves throughout the series but its interesting enough to provoke discussion on a subject that has been seen mostly as a joke to the general public. Unlike other shows, they are not assuming aliens are behind it although it remains a possibility. Their stance is more focused on these crafts that display technology far advanced then our own as being a threat to the nations on this planet.

The most interesting aspect is that these aren't just people who are into the whole UFO mythology, they consist of high ranking officials that held or have held important positions in government intelligence agencies as well as experts in the field of aviation.

Its worth a watch if you like the subject of UFO's and want a different approach that most shows do not have.

I am interested in this subject, unfortunately it has the same concept like the old classic TV UFO documentaries. Full of same footage repeated over and over with a tiny bit of something new each episode. By episode 4 I was already bored with it.

It's funny that once in a while a man decides to quit his job and "pursue the truth" by making a commercial and superficial "documentary". By doing the same thing others did, by helping the UFO subject look like a joke, AGAIN.

So thanks for this, you should go back to your old job, there are enough people chasing money with "surprising" subjects...

I'm pretty worn out by being interested in UFO docs and shows. By the 2010's it was pretty much junk journalism and continuously re-hashed events and the same old talking head inserts. With the revelation by The New York Times about the government's ATIP program and actual military video as teased by the promos for this show I thought "finally, something new and tangible". While it's true the show does present this stuff and backs it up with some of the actual military witnesses there is one big annoying thing. It revisits the same two naval training events in which the videos were made over and over to the point of insulting the viewer's patience. I watched each episode wanting more and getting mostly the same stuff presented again and again lessening any initial enthusiasm. Still, this show could be a corner. If UFO docs and TV shows from here on out are to have any validity there needs to be in-depth cooperation with the government and not just retirees discovering redacted FOIA releases. The thing that makes the show worth at least watching the first two episodes is the times when they are getting close to this. The hard questions need definitive answers such as does the government have knowledge of extra-planetary vehicles and/or possession of any UFO parts or whatever? Does the government actually take the phenomenon as truly serious - potentially good or bad based on what? Is there an actually any relationship for instance with crop circles, cattle mutilations, and supposed geographical sighting hotspots? Finally, has an alien body or being, dead or alive, ever been actually witnessed and studied? That last one seems extremely far fetched for me to even expend the effort to type. Anyway, please going forward with this or other shows give us less of the same old same old and turn a corner into diving deep into credibility to back up these videos and the funding behind ATIP. UFOS are fascinating now make the show that explodes what is real and unknown without the constant "old hat" or "same" stuff endlessly rehashed. Please!

Series is interesting. The show's quality assurance/proof readers are lousy. Just watched an episode where they are interviewing a naval aviator (photos showing his Navy uniform and A-6 aircraft) and under his screen image the writing says Air Force pilot. In the same episode they describe a soldier as a "specialist first class" There is no such rank in the Army. He can either be a private first class or a specialist fourth/fifth class. Come on, hire some college kid to proofread your video before you air it.

Who is Luis Elizondo? Did he serve in the military? Branch? Rank? College? What government branch did he work for before the Pentagon?

While I personally think this presents credible evidence and especially credible experts (including Lockheed veterans who refuse to answer or address certain questions), people who believe UFO's are just bunk probably aren't going to be swayed because they already have their minds made up. I'm not the kind of person who thinks every mysterious light in the sky is a UFO, or even necessarily that UFO's means ET's; just that there are unexplainable encounters and government deception. I mean, Ancient Aliens is one of the most absurd and far fetched show I've ever seen.

One reviewer cited the poor quality of the video(s), saying there were high quality cameras when the videos were shot. Perhaps he wasn't paying attention (he specifically mentions the military), but the videos were shot w the IR tracking cameras on jets. They're not exactly 4K HD - not even smartphone quality. These aren't spy planes, they're fighter jets where the cameras are for tactical & targeting/radar purposes. Some people will dismiss any evidence, no matter how legitimate or compelling, simply because it goes against their already formed views. Those people are obviously going to give this show a low rating.

The show is targeted at people who have an open mind and want to know more about the subject. For major UFO buffs, it probably has repeat information, but for me there was definitely some new information. I mean, what do military personnel have to gain by coming forward and sharing their experiences. Some even go to lengths to conceal their identities for fear of repercussions.
