Think about it. A show with no grounding in facts. A series full of outlandish propositions. 200+ episodes that invalidate the accomplishments of the most intelligent species in the history of the planet… and get that very same species to believe it. How could such a thing be possible? Could it be that the producers of the show had help from beings of a different species altogether? And could that species have come… from a different planet altogether?
Or could it be, the average person won’t sit through an hour-long documentary… or worse, a 6-hour series, at a set time in a set place every week, but “factual entertainment”? The history channel has become extremely good at delivering interesting nuggets of information with very little elaboration, and if you were interested you could look it up on Wikipedia.
Or don’t. Think that this extremely well produced and funded show is about proving aliens is real, and not about getting viewers.

I’m not high enough to properly respond to this ramble.
