Ancient Aliens

Did intelligent beings from outer space visit Earth thousands of years ago? From the age of the dinosaurs to ancient Egypt, from early cave drawings to continued mass sightings in the US, each episode gives historic depth to the questions, speculations, provocative controversies, first-hand accounts and grounded theories surrounding this age old debate.

Directed by Kevin Burns, Ancient Aliens leans on a strong ensemble — Robert Clotworthy, Giorgio A. Tsoukalos, Ariel Bar Tzadok — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2010.
