Project Blue Book Series Information:
At a time when UFOs and related phenomena have piqued worldwide attention and public intrigue, season two will take a dramatic look back at where the UFO conspiracy first began and highlight real cases that ignited Americaโs fascination around the topic. Based on the true, top secret investigations into Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) and related phenomena conducted by the United States Air Force from 1952-1969, each episode will draw from the actual case files blending UFO theories with authentic historical events from one of the most mysterious eras in United States history.
โUFOs have sparked a cultural conversation that has infiltrated recent news cycles, but the truth is, the allure with this topic goes back decades since the creation of Project Blue Book,โ said Eli Lehrer, Executive Vice President and General Manager for HISTORY. โOur drama series delves into infamous cases like Roswell and Area 51 and offers a retrospective look at the rich history behind UFO phenomena. Through this seasonโs entertaining and compelling storytelling, viewers will become immersed in these strange occurrences that are inspired by real events.โ
โProject Blue Bookโ is inspired by the personal experiences of Dr. J. Allen Hynek (Aidan Gillen), a brilliant college professor recruited by the U.S. Air Force to spearhead this clandestine operation (Project Blue Book) that researched thousands of cases, over 700 of which remain unsolved to this day. The ten-episode sophomore season will find Dr. Hynek and Captain Michael Quinn (Michael Malarkey) on a dangerous quest for the truth and delve deeper into themes of global conspiracy, touch on how UFOs have impacted the evolution of our nationโs military practices and technology and lean into the nostalgia of the 1950s. It will also kick-off with a deep dive into two of the most well-known UFO cases in US history: Roswell, New Mexico where a rancher claimed to have found mysterious wreckage on his property thought to be a UFO and Area 51, a government run location in Nevada historically rumored to be a magnet for paranormal events and UFO-related activity.
Other episodes this season take Hynek and Quinn further into the secrets and conspiracies of the 1950s, with stories about the haunting Skinwalker Ranch (a 512-acre property reputed to be the site of numerous paranormal and UFO-inspired events), the mysterious Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter (where a rural Kentucky family claimed to have been visited by aliens), the CIAโs infamous mind control experiments, and an episode which follows Hynek in his role as expert consultant to the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
HISTORYโs โProject Blue Bookโ is the #1 new drama series on cable and averaged more than 3.2 million Total Viewers in Live+7 delivery during season one. In addition to Gillen (โGame of Thrones,โ โPeaky Blindersโ) and Malarkey (โThe Vampire Diariesโ), returning cast for season two include Neal McDonough (โYellowstone,โ โAltered Carbonโ) as General James Harding, Michael Harney (โOrange Is The New Black,โ Soy Nero) as General Hugh Valentine, Laura Mennell (Watchmen, โThe Man in the High Castleโ) as Mimi Hynek and Ksenia Solo (Black Swan, โLost Girlโ) as Susie Miller.
โProject Blue Bookโ is an A+E Studios production in association with Compari Entertainment, a division of ImageMovers. Robert Zemeckis (Contact, Back to the Future, Forrest Gump), Jack Rapke (Cast Away, Flight) and Jackie Levine (Allied, The Walk) are executive producers for Compari Entertainment. David OโLeary serves as creator, executive producer and writer, with Sean Jablonski (โSuits,โ โNip/Tuckโ) serving as showrunner, executive producer and writer. Barry Jossen is also an Executive Producer. Adam Fratto serves as the Creative Executive for HISTORY.

I was watching this series, it was very good. Sometimes I watched on the web because I was too sleepy. Don’t know if this counts for ratings, probably many people did that too. Hate to see it go unconclusive.
Rita St. Clair says
I hate it when you start watching a TV show and get involved in it and then it is cancelled!!! This was one of my favorites!!!

The history channel has not taken advantage of the interest in the subject by very poor advertising When you have such a world wide interest and hide your product, guess what happens?.
