An Exercise In Nonsense

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

I should admin that seeing a title like Ancient Aliens under a channel called History channel, made me very interested in watching it. I guess I had too high expectations. The show is full of people, most of them without any credibility, talking about what they believe without any evidence to support their case. In the few attempts to produce evidence, they present the data in a distorted way to justify their view. Then if there is something that their limited imagination can not explain, they introduce it as a work of aliens. Needless to say that there are all these questions "could this be the work of aliens?", which are strategically placed to provoke the viewer to come to a stupid conclusion. Most probably the producers also know that this show is a joke, and they only ask questions to avoid getting sued. If they come to any conclusions themselves with such poor research, the scientific world would be suing them for everything they got.Why is a channel that runs such shows called History Channel and not something else? Are the rest of the shows in this channel also this uninformative?

It's scary that that this scores so highly, how gullible is the average person ....doesn't even bear thinking about, though it is unintentionally quite funny and I can't resist watching now and again though I know I shouldn't"when the stone sarcophagus lid was removed it was empty.....was it an ancient teleportation device?"Wtf lolIt also makes an interesting guessing game as to whether the Ancient alien investigator on screen is sincere and self deluded (usually slightly odd looking with strange haircut) a con man (Childress, Eric VD (but fair play it's his adopted baby anyway) and Stanton Friedman ($25 dollars to autograph his book.. jeez!) et al) or sincere but completely off their trolley (David Ickey). Georgio 'Einstein hairdo' Opopolopolis though seems to quite personable, a little tongue in cheek and enjoying the ride, no surprise he got has own series now 'Even more Ancient Alien stuff that's 99.9% nonsense hunters'or some such.Some people believe that the above 'review' is completely accurate, some people believe in Ancient Aliens and some people believe the moon is inhabited by cheese eating Nazi vampires but that don't make it so. Still if I can get enough of them together I may have a Doc channel money spinner, watch this hyper-dimensional space! Hold on..what's that pulsating pyramid doing up in the sky.......... Dave.. Dave.. I'm coming too Dave......

It is not "awful", it's well made, i consed this one, but they do not deserve the +7/10 rating with all the craps they are saying in their show.Too much is too much, if i got interested in the beginning, specially with the pilot-episode for the questions about object and history dates scale, very quickly they fail to show true evidences, even worst they start to tell lies, and invent dishonest stories about inventions for example who invented the transistor (it's an alien invention they said)They are clearly out of subject now, they just mix previous episodes, shakes the whole, put a new title and you get a new episode.The last episode that i saw just upset me, (S08E7 Creatures of the deep), i am a Technical scuba diver, i dove in the cenote, yes the cenote Angelita too like in the show, below the hydrogen sulfide there is not stargate or portal to another dimension (you can believe me i went and dive there), they lies when they said it's in the middle of the jungle, the entrance gate is at 5 meters from the main national/highway (YES 5 meters) and you carry your tanks something like 50 meters from the car park to jump in the water (yes there is a car park ! and there is also entrance fees so not at all in the middle of nowhere). I want to add that the position of the camera hide the constructions and facilities (like the WC and shower used by scuba divers) just beside the water.About the "deep" creatures of the sea, not deep at all those zoo plankton and affiliates are from warm water near the equator most seeing at night between 1 to 10 meters deep, YES an average of 5 meters even less !!

Regarding : Mr. Erich "con" Daniken: Doesn't any reasonable , logical human being have the right to question the "theory's" put forth by a convicted FRAUD? Or is that just an out-dated way of thinking?? Personally , I'm a big fan of the show , but mostly for its presentation of ancient Sites , Structures , and Cultures . But when the Presenters try to take every strange,unexplained thing in History and say "ALIENS"!! that is pure conjectural Nonsense.I would not label a Race that survived the last Ice Age(not to mention Plagues,etc,etc) as "idiots" as EvD has. Also , the disturbing habit a few of the more radical(and irritatingly self-serving)people on there have of stating conjecture and "hypothesis" as FACT. And some of them DO just That. This show throws the whole credibility of the History Channel into question.
