Is this not the start of Season 2?
This series is just lazy. Wade used to actually go places and do things in previous series. It was part of why I watched his show about fishing, when I have no real interest in fishing. He made it interesting, and made it about more than just fishing. In this, he just stands on the same rocky coastline, wearing the same clothes, and provides a few lines of introductory and filler dialog for each episode, and narrates the rest unseen.
His guests, the same group of interchangeable "experts" in each episode - again wearing the same clothes for the whole series - just say the kind of inane things that anyone might say after getting a 5 minute briefing on each "mystery" - certainly nothing that demonstrates any real expertise on the subjects: "Nobody really knows what happened"... "It's a mystery"... "This has never happened before"... "We may never know". It makes me wonder if they were all just recruited off the street, and given lines to read - they could have filmed all of their contributions for the whole series in about an hour each.
Finally, there's the b-roll visual filler that makes up most of each episode. While they do get a few sequences specific to each episode's subject matter, there's a lot of generic stuff mixed in. In this episode, to illustrate a supposed encounter between a navy carrier group and an underwater UFO, footage of soviet fighters was substituted for American F-18s. With all the generic footage they had to choose from for these brief sequences, they couldn't find a half dozen shots of the correct type of airplane? I could have done better after a 10 minute search of YouTube. Like I said - a lazy, formula TV documentary, that doesn't have anything new to contribute.
