For a twentieth season, Ancient Aliens is back. I hope that they have not permanently changed their format. I'm accustomed to the opening chord that sounds like a note struck, then stretched out, and bent over a nearby planet, or a moon, or even over a galaxy. It's that note that once alerted me to expect the unexpected. I didn't hear it in this episode. I hope it's not gone for good. Ancient Aliens was once considered just another fantasy show by most, with its wild claims of Aliens that existed in our past. But due to recent revelations by the government, and whistleblowers, it's suddenly considered a serious series. This episode covers the different cultures that believe they were guided by extraterrestrials in the past. Almost all civilizations have stories of "Gods" that came down from the sky. It's amazing how universal that theme is. Maybe we'll get an answer to our UFO questions soon. The only thing now keeping this show from being as serious as a documentary, is Gorgio's hair!
