I personally find the idea that earth may have been visited by alien life to be completely fascinating. But I have an idea that this show might not break much new ground, or even understand properly the ground that it covers.
May watch it anyhow.
But it is the FIRST very serious treatment--evidently--of the topic by such a major news figure. At least in the public gestalt of such.
As that--depending on how they slant it--it could be setting the stage for some more significant revelations not too far off.
It's upping the credibility of the topic
sort of factor.
in the general public's eyes, I mean.
