Bob Zemeckis' Blue Book Lands at History

Dr. Allen Hynek

The History Channel has changed its name to History and teamed-up with A&E to bring audiences Robert Zemeckis' Blue Book series.  Set in the 1950s and '60s, it follows Dr. Allen Hynek and others involved in the USAF's highly secret Operation: Blue Book.  Blue Book, which went by other names in other incarnations, was the first big study of disinformation campaign surrounding the UFO phenomenon in America.

A speculative, scripted series based on real cases and events, Blue Book is expected to start this season.  Zemeckis is best known for movie classics such as Forrest Gump and Back to the Future.
