NASA's Unexplained Files

This is not a science program. It is a wildly sensationalized pile of hysterical garbage. It is however, instructive in exactly one way: It does demonstrate how many supposedly credible scientists will whore themselves for TV exposure.

In this program, pretty much everything in the universe is about to destroy the earth any second or is evidence of alien invasion. It twists actual science into tabloid TV in the worst possible way. Shame on the producers.

If you like science and have any self respect, avoid this stinking pile of poop.

Once you hear this guy's over done s's, you can't unhear them. He's an assault on the ears, and shouldn't be allowed near a microphone.

What a waste of time! It wants to be real science, it tries to be science fiction with some real science mixed in, but it fails completely on all counts. As the seasons progressed, the stories got more and more absurd.

Don't waste your time. If you want to watch a show covering real science rather than pseudo-science garbage, look elsewhere.

Most of the episodes are about cases that have been convincingly explained but the TV show pretends that they haven't for like 3/4ths of the presentation only to say "but this one has been very convincingly explained and it's not aliens lol" towards the end: it's so incredibly annoying! This has turned me away from the show more than anything else. The real "unexplained" files out of the first two seasons could've been done in like 3 episodes. I'm including there the ones they pretend that have been explained by NASA's silly handwaving away of the facts. There are some interesting cases here that I didn't know about and that's why I'm giving it six stars. However, I rather remain ignorant of the remaining "unexplained files" (like 4 more seasons) instead of subjecting myself to the annoyance that is this show for most of each episodes runtime.

Some of these so called explanations are obviously directed by nasa. Especially season 1 episode 6. How they can say a picture that shows a cylindrical object above the moon is a hammer thrown by an astronaut is absurd. The "conversation" they show between the astronauts is obviously staged. You can tell by the clarity of the camera work. On the moon's surface the video is a bit fuzzy but the conversation about throwing the hammer is clear. Come on nasa...how stupid do you think people are? These nasa explanations have turned me away from the show.
