UFO Hunters (2008)
UFO Hunters is an American television series that premiered on January 30, 2008 on The History Channel, produced by Motion Picture Production Inc., and ran for three seasons. Jon Alon Walz was the Executive Producer of the show and was responsible for selling the series to History Channel after a bidding war for the rights to the show broke out between History Channel and Sci-Fi Channel. The concept for the show was tested in a segment of History Channel's 2006 UFO special entitled "Deep Sea UFOs", produced by Motion Picture Production Inc, which featured two of the final four cast members. "UFO Hunters" was not a spin-off from a 2005 History Channel special with the same title. The tagline of the show is: Hoax or History? The series should not be confused with a similarly themed and titled UFO Hunters, a special that debuted the same day and time on the Sci-Fi Channel, and created by the producers of Ghost Hunters, but which only aired one episode. In the US, History Channel only released the first two seasons on DVD in the correct airdate order. However, the format was only released in full screen instead of wide screen. In the UK, History Channel released the third and final season on DVD however, the episodes were released in the incorrect airdate order.

Seasons & Episode
The team looks into the claims of undercover investigators and former military personnel that an alien base exists somewhere below the New Mexico desert where human-alien hybrid experiments are being performed and how the beings there actually had a deadly conflict with human infiltrators.
The team studies two alleged alien abduction cases with alarmingly similar details that involve encounters with the creatures known as "Greys," and then they closely examine a strange humanoid skull found in Mexico that could be the remains of an alien-human hybrid.
The hunters delve into the mountain of reports from the Gulf Breeze, Florida UFO sighting wave of the early 1990s and then looks for possible connections to recent reports from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba of alleged Unidentified Submerged Objects (USOs) spotted rising from the ocean.
The team ventures to Germany and Poland to investigate rumors that the Third Reich had reverse engineered alien technology and may have produced a functional spacecraft, and how some of this technology was captured by the United States and helped jump start the U.S. space program.
The team investigates the phenomena of cattle mutilations, investigating a recent slaughter and following patterns of other cases, as well as sightings of black helicopters which have led some to believe the military may be involved in the killings as part of a secret experiment.
Investigating so-called "trace cases," the team studies supposed physical evidence left behind after various UFO sightings, from a strange glass-like rock found in Poland, to an odd piece of metal a Missouri man claims to have found after it was dropped from a UFO.
The investigators monitor the activity of the AUTEC (Atlantic Undersea Test and Evaluation Center), which is used by the U.S. Navy for underwater research, but the increasing reports of UFO and USO activity surrounding the facility have lead to rumors the base is testing alien technology.
The investigators analyze various UFO cases from around the world through the Freedom of Information Act, separating fact from fiction to determine what are obvious hoaxes and what could be legitimate evidence of UFO phenomena.
The team investigates the phenomena of orbs, (mysterious balls of light that appear to coincide with earthquakes), and travel to areas of orb activity in Arizona, Indiana and Missouri where some witnesses claim the spheres are intelligent and communicate through dreams and premonitions.
The team tries to gather insight on the military's "First Response" protocols, the alleged recovery and cover-up procedures that are followed in case of a UFO incident. The investigation takes them to a claim of a military pursuit of multiple UFOs near Long Beach, California and a return visit to the supposed UFO crash in Needles, California in 2008.
