Project Blue Book premieres tonight on the History Channel.
It is about the government's attempt (more than likely highly fictionalized) to study "aliens from outer space" - to use a phrase from the 60's.
We'll find out tonight if the show is any good or not.

Interesting subject, but the History Channel stopped doing real history years ago. I suspect this will be the usual round of interviews with every kook and fruit bat they can find.

NO. It's a drama like Vikings.

I LOVED the show in the 70's. (called "Project UFO" in the states and "Project Blue Book" in Canada) I seem to recall it took place in modern time whereas I think this iteration takes place in the 60's. I may check it out out of curiosity.

I watched the pilot. My GUESS is that if you liked "The X Files", you'll like this show.
My GUESS is that Ksenia Solo plays a Russian spy - but we'll find out in future episodes.
