	UFO
		The idea that UFOs are in fact alien spacecraft is discounted by most scientists, because many such sightings have been explained in terms of known natural phenomena or human activity, and there is a lack of evidence corroborating eyewitness accounts which purport otherwise.
		The field of UFOs should not necessarily be confused or intermingled with "the paranormal," although it often is. The UFO phenomenon need not have a paranormal explanation, though those who believe in UFOs may also have a fascination with the paranormal.
		UFOs are sometimes claimed to be part of an elaborate UFO conspiracy theory in which the government is said to be intentionally covering up the existence of aliens.

	UFO (TV series) - Plot overview
		UFO confused broadcasters in both Britain and the United States who could not decide if it was a program for adults, or for children (the fact Anderson was primarily associated with children's programming did not help matters).
		As with all the later Anderson series, the special effects, supervised by Derek Meddings, were of the highest quality and outstanding for their day, given the relatively limited resources at the team's disposal.
		The space sequences involving the Interceptors and UFOs are very well shot (showing the technical improvements that had come along since Kubrick's 2001), with tight editing, fast action, and spectacular explosions.

		An idiosyncrasy of the series is that the term "UFO" is pronounced as a word ("you-foh"), as suggested by the real-world originator of the term Edward J. Ruppelt, and not as the more common "you-eff-oh".
		During the first half of the series, Carlin is the commander of the submarine Skydiver and pilot of its interceptor aircraft, Sky 1.
		UFO also featured episodes dealing with issues that would become topical in later years, such as space junk and the disposal of toxic waste.

	UFO - The Complete UFO Megaset
		First, some perspective: I saw "UFO," a Gerry and Sylvia Anderson series about a secret organization waging covert war against mysterious alien, during its original 1970 British TV run and I absolutely adored it.
		While far more adult in tone and storylines than other Anderson creations, "UFO" is still their baby, for all that implies: the Anderson's were innovators, especially in design, but they were also fetishists.
		There was obviously a progressive intelligence behind the series and the courage to avoid perpetually feel-good plots and happy endings.

		UFO is perhaps one of the ultimate cult series, and a precursor to the underrated but more famous Space:1999.
		UFO was ahead of its time; the real-life counterpart to Captain Scarlet in terms of sophistication of plot and technical excellence.
		The series kinda ran out of steam in no small part because the entire premise was a little too far fetched to stand the light of scientific scrutiny, but it's still better than most of the drivel produced today.

		Anderson believed the series would lead on to bigger and better things for Bishop and make a major star, but sadly this was not to be.
		The whole series mixes and matches styles from the time it was made with ideas of what it was going to be like ten years in the future, which of course, is now over twenty years ago...
		The early episodes of the series are sometimes a bit uneven, but the quality improved as the series went on.

		UFO was Gerry Anderson's first live-action TV series after a decade of producing such children's animated classics as Stingray (1963) and Thunderbirds (1964).
		The premise of UFO, which ran for a single season of 26 episodes in 1970, was like a more serious version of Anderson's Captain Scarlet (1967): in the near future of 1980, a high-tech secret organization, SHADO, waged covert war against mysterious alien attackers.
		People who are more accustomed to expensive, computerized special effects of today may not enjoy "UFO" as much because its special effects are far less sophisticated; but don't let the lack of funds and lack of technology spoil your enjoyment of this well made TV series.

		Even when Thunderbirds and Stingray were made in the mid 60's let alone UFO, the effects the shows demonstrated were way ahead of their time, especially considering they were made often made on a low budget and for television.
		UFO has certainly not dated as badly as many other TV programmes of its era, and still retains much of its original excitement and charm.
		Watching the entire series, though, it becomes evident that special effects footage was widely reused throughout the series, and this does detract from the enjoyment a little.

		The website was at one time littered with UFO cases and stories offered to the public by Jaime Maussan.
		It has been reported that Maussan was in the stages of selling a paranormal television series to Telemundo L.A., with one episode - reportedly episode number four - being devoted to the Dr.Reed UFO case.

		"UFO" is a Sci-fi series from the early 70's, made by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson.
		This was the Anderson's first time using real actors, rather than marionettes in a series that was well ahead of its time.
		Many of the storylines in "UFO" include parallels to the kind of human dilemmas that we all face at some point in our lives, and some of the special effects are still quite stunning.
