• A+E Networks and HISTORY (History Channel) have a runaway hit in its UFO drama series Project Blue Book. The show has secured a raft of new sales among international broadcasters for its second season.
• The drama series, executive produced by Robert Zemeckis, is based on the true, top-secret investigations into UFOs and related phenomena conducted by the US Air Force in the 1950’s and 60’s, and stars Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones) and Michael Malarkey (The Vampire Diaries). Each episode draws from the actual case files, blending UFO theories with authentic historical events from one of the most mysterious eras in United States’ history.
• After a highly successful first season, Project Blue Book has attracted new broadcasters to a 10-episode second season, including TNT (Spain), Warner TV via EuroTV (France), D’Live (South Korea), Vietnam Satellite Digital Television Company (Vietnam), and CIS Yandex (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan). These add to the likes of Sci Fi Channel Europe, TVNZ, HISTORY, Showmax and U-Next.
• A+E claims that Project Blue Book is the leading new cable TV series in the United States, averaging 3.2 million total viewers in Nielsen Live+7 delivery. During season 1, HISTORY was cable’s #1 entertainment network on Tuesday nights.
• [Editor’s Note] This demonstrates the incredible popularity of the topic of UFOs and the US government’s cover-up of the extraterrestrial presence – not only in America, but throughout the world. The public knows that there is more to the UFO/extraterrestrial phenomenon than the Deep State government is letting on, and the world is ready to know the truth.
