Thought I'd revisit as there wa a series I hadn't seen yet on tv.
Bad decision.
This show is the Kardashian of "science". No explanations still. Over the top hype still.
A rubbish show not worth looking at under any circumstances.
Old osted review follows.
While this show seems to present some facts it is so hyped and sensationalized that it often comes across as hokey. While I love science,especially relating to space, and being entertained, I don't like being talked down to and treated like an idiot. Way over dramatic, sensationalized editing and presentation. Not a good advertisement for astronomy. Presenting the facts in an interesting and factual manner doesn't mean the show will be boring an uninteresting. Virtually every segment I have seen features a breathless announcer and/ or commentator saying, in carefully cut and edited dialogue, what seems to be an announcement that someone has died, aliens have been discovered and hidden or there has been a disaster of some kind. NOT ONCE has this related to the actual outcome. And "files"? I think not.
