'Project Blue Book' renewed for 10-episode Season 2 and could address the operation's disputed last day of activity

The show has been dealing with Hynek's plight in finding a logical explanation for UFOs, and Season 2 might see the quest reaching a whole new level

History Channel's hit UFO drama series 'Project Blue Book', from A+E Studios and Academy Award and Golden Globe-winning executive producer Robert Zemeckis, landed a 10-episode sophomore season.  'Project Blue Book' is the number one new series on cable among total viewers this TV season, averaging 3.4 million viewers in live premiere viewing plus viewing for the next three days.

“We are believers in ‘Project Blue Book’ and so is our audience who has sparked a conversation about the hundreds of unsolved cases and our nation’s military response to UFOs that have remained relatively secret until now,” said Eli Lehrer, Executive Vice President and Head of Programming for the History Channel. “Zemeckis, A+E Studios and our extraordinary creative team have shaped a compelling narrative that is the perfect blend of historical authenticity and entertainment that inspires curiosity in our viewers to learn more. We’ve touched on a very relevant topic and look forward to a second season.”
