MGM+ is premiering “Beyond: UFOs and the Unknown,” a four-part docuseries starting October 27th at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Capitalizing on renewed interest in UFOs, the series moves past the basic question of their existence to examine their potential nature and connections to other paranormal phenomena.
This exploration includes alien encounters, near-death experiences, and remote viewing, with a focus on credible evidence. The question is whether “credible” is a flexible term in this context.
Featuring interviews with scientists, academics, researchers, and former government officials, “Beyond” aims to upend conventional wisdom on UFOs, human consciousness, and our place in the universe. While the series utilizes sophisticated investigative techniques, the subject matter inherently invites skepticism. Whether it can offer compelling evidence or simply retreads familiar ground remains to be seen.
Paul Crowder directs episodes one and three, Mark Monroe helms episodes two and four and co-executive produces. Executive producers include Monroe, Lyn Lear, Rachel Rusch Rich, Sean Stuart, Glen Zipper, and J.J. Abrams. Maren Domzalski produces. “Beyond” is a production of Bad Robot, Zipper Bros Films, Sutter Road Picture Company, Diamond Docs, and MGM+ Studios.
