From 1952 to 1969, the U.S. Air Force conducted Project Blue Book, in which they investigated thousands of reported UFO sightings.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })In 1978, Jack Webb (of Dragnet fame) decided to make a TV show about it. The show starred William Jordan and Caskey Swaim as the USAF investigators Jake Gatlin and Harry Fitz (Edward Winter replaced Jordan in the show's second half-season) who would go and investigate various reported sightings of UFOs in an attempt to either debunk them as something terrestrial or decisively prove that alien's from other planets really where visiting us. It began in February 1978 and returned in the fall of that year before getting axed mid-season, and ran for 26 episodes.Often seen as a predecessor to The X-Files, though with no actual aliens in keeping with Jack Webb's penchant for keeping things real. All sightings investigated either had thoroughly earthbound explanations or were inconclusive.It was the final series to come from Webb's Mark VII Ltd prior to his death a couple of years later.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Not to be confused with Project Blue Book | |

Evolving Credits | |
| Project UFO / int_3297cfbb | comment |
Evolving Credits: The second season credit sequence was significantly changed from the first. Justified in part by the recasting of the "lead officer" slot, but the cast members weren't actually shown in the first season credits. The new credits include 40 seconds of spaceship special effects shots plus footage of the leads taking off in an Air Force fighter jet. It's all more suggestive of a science-fiction action-adventure show than a "just the facts" procedural. | |

Early Installment Weirdness: The pilot had Jack Web himself narrate a good chunk of the episode. It also jumped around a lot more then subsequent ones, making it feel much more like an Anthology show. | |

Ancient Astronauts: The Title Sequence opens thus: "Ezekiel saw the wheel. This is the wheel he said he saw." | |
