Sighting 4009: The French Incident

Many Project UFO episodes are somewhat dull procedurals, but this installment had the added bonus of fake French exteriors filmed on the Universal lot, fake French countryside exteriors obviously filmed on a California movie ranch, really fake French accents, translation sequences (what did she say? Ah monsieur..) that ate up way too much of the run time, a UFO that was an obvious kit bash with a tank model in order to provide the required "tank tracks" explained in the script, and snoozy stock footage of planes. Oh and I forgot to mention the resolution of both the mystery subplot and the "reverse Scooby-Doo" (were they actually visited?) plot line didn't make any sense!
