UPDATED JAN 15, 2019

Ever since its release, History's new show, 'Project Blue Book' has been met with both ample excitement and criticism based on the show's concept being that of fiction mingled with facts. And while the show does tend to deviate from historical facts every now and then, when it does go by the book with regards to the real-life investigation undertaken by the US Air Force back in the 50s, the portrayal is nothing short of impeccable. This brings us to to the upcoming second episode of the show's debut season, where we find the far-from-reality Flatwoods Monster making an appearing once again.

The show primarily follows the story of Dr J Allen Hynek (Aidan Gillen) and his involvement with the project that slowly developed further after a sudden surge of 'aliens' and 'UFO' sightings around the Washington DC area. The second episode shows the acclaimed astrophysicist getting into a tiff with his on-screen counterpart for the project, Captain Michael Quinn (Michael Malarkey). This happens over the two of them investigating a case from West Virginia, where a woman had reported that she and her two sons had witnessed a supposed flying saucer near their farm, which then crashed, and out came from the fires what they believe was an alien.
