Many viewers appreciate the blend of fact and fiction, finding the overall storytelling entertaining, despite acknowledging some plot holes.

- “Perfect distraction from the real world, enter the world of UFOs with some splendid acting, fun storylines, and always the suggestion that everything you see on screen is 'true'.”
- “At first I thought the show was going to be more about the facts and less story, but the story around the facts is very well done and entertaining!”
- “Definitely one of the better UFO storylines out there.”
- “While I enjoyed the exposition of specific events, it often felt slowed for airtime (ad dollars) and the Soviet-next-door side story was irrelevant and boring, even if true.”

- “Would I recommend it? Well, if you like a story and not a true documentary of events.”
