Phenomenon - The Lost Archives (1998)Season 1

This has taken me weeks to get off Demonoid

American Midnight
Original Air Date—????
Plot: This shocking, power packed indictment, brings into sharp focus the Iran/Contra conspiracy through the least likely of events: The slaying of two innocent high school students. Out for a night of fun near the train tracks, these unassuming local boys witness an airdrop of drugs by the infamous international drug smuggler and CIA operative, Barry Sieles. Though some are jailed and others pay with their lives, the remaining victims: The parents of the slain boys, the Constitution of the United States and the people of the Western World, have yet to divine justice

Genesis Revisited
Original Air Date—????
Evidence of a civilization ruled by emissaries from another world are revealed in the ancient tablets of man. Historian and Archeologist Zecharia Sitien uncovers the lost and hidden archives of the Annunaki: Extra-planetary visitors who over 6,000 years ago inspired what is thought to be the earliest civilization known to man; Sumeria. From the sacred stone tablets of this culture, many of the teachings of the earliest inventors, philosophers and biblical scholars once thought mythical, are now known to be true. Where did these Anunaki come from? Sitien says and NASA scientists concur, that there may be a mysterious 10th member to our solar system: The planet the Sumerians called, Nibiru.

H.A.A.R.P: Holes in Heaven
Original Air Date—????
High-Frequency Active Aural Research Project or H.A.A.R.P. is a combined effort of the Air Force and Navy ostensibly designed to influence the weather. Consisting of large fields of high energy projectors, this brainchild of the controversial Nikola Tesla, has been associated with everything from the breakdown of the ozone layer, to electromagnetic warfare. H.A.A.R.P. has achieved long range undersea communications, but its clandestine applications as a long range particle beam weapon able to alter the electrical impulses of the human brain are what make the technology controversial.

HeavyWatergate: The War Against Cold Fusion
Original Air Date—3 January 2000
Plot: On March 23, 1989, respected chemists, Dr. Stanley Pons and Dr. Martin Fleishman made an announcement that rocked the world of science. Their tabletop experiments with heavy water, a renewable resource readily available in ocean water, yielded enormous amounts of heat energy. Appropriately named, "Cold Fusion," this breakthrough challenged many basic scientific concepts. In response, a group of powerful physicists, heavily reliant upon government funding for their hot fusion research, leveled an unprecedented smear campaign against Pons, Fleishman and the entire field of Cold Fusion science. Was the discovery of Fire From Water too good to be true? Or was it the discovery of the millennium?

Irretrievably Lost: The Search for the Savannah Warhead
Original Air Date—????
Recently released government documents indicate that over the past 50 years, American military operations have been responsible for the loss or disappearance of 12 Atomic weapons. How could this happen? What are the consequences? Each account is explored in frightening detail through interviews with the actual pilots that erroneously dropped the deadly weapons. In Savannah, the boggy home to families of residential fisherman, we join investigators as they dredge and wade through the mire in search of what experts believe to be an armed nuclear warhead. "If we've lost 12, how many have they lost?"

Keeping the Faith
Original Air Date—????
How does the charismatic energy of any leader result in the voluntary death of hundreds, even a thousand people. Throughout the development civilization, incidents of mass suicide have shaken humanity to it's foundation. Yet history records very different social attitudes toward these extreme events. From the martyrdom staged at Masada against the Romans, to the debauchery and carnage perpetrated by Jim Jones in Guyana, are these the acts of the morally righteous or the morally depraved? In the end, what made them do it?

Monopoly Men
Original Air Date—1 March 2000
During the Wilson Presidency, the U.S. Government sanctioned the creation of the Federal Reserve. Thought by many to be a government organization maintained to provide financial accountability in the event of a domestic depression, the actual business of the FED is shrouded in secrecy. People of the world will be shocked to discover that the principal business of the FED is to print money from nothing, lend it to the U.S. Government and charge interest on these loans. Who keeps the interest? Good question. Find out as the connective tissue between this and other top secret international organizations is explored.

Noah's Ark Found
Original Air Date—3 January 2000
In 1960, a joint US/Turkish expedition sets out to investigate the aerial sighting of a boat shaped object located in the Ararat Mountains of Eastern Turkey. Though this initial investigation bears little fruit, the stage is set for explorer and archaeologist, Ron Wyatt. 35 years later, at 6,300 feet above sea level, to assemble the proof that may establish the half buried boat shaped object as the mortal remains of the legendary Noah's Ark.

Science Fraud: Is the Tail Wagging the Dog?
Original Air Date—3 January 2000
The Cold Fusion Debacle and the purported discovery of the Piltdown man stand as two of the greatest shams perpetrated over the course of scientific history. Have the people of science learned anything from the real or alleged Goldbricks of the past? Experts in the field seem to think not. Today's scientists are under mounting pressure to achieve results. If they do not, they risk losing research grants and/or a chance at University tenure. How do these inherent conflicts of interest impact the integrity of medical and scientific discovery and how do they affect our society at large?

Stolen Glory: The Cover-up of Cosmonaut Vladimir Ilyushin
Original Air Date—????
On April 12th, 1961, the Soviet Union reports the successful launch, orbit and reentry of the first man in space, Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin. With the collapse of communism and the rise of freedom in the Russian Federation, recent access to documents in the Kremlin archives reveal a story intended to remain buried forever. Yuri Gagarin, the icon of triumphant communism known world over, was not the first man in space. Join us for a visit with Vladimir Ilyushin, the unsung hero of the first manned Soviet Space mission.

Tunguska: The Russian Roswell
Original Air Date—????
Just prior to the Russian Revolution a mysterious 40 megaton explosion lays to waste nearly 200 square kilometers of Earth in the desolate northlands of Siberia. The Official Story alleges the impact of an asteroid, but no known scientific explanation can account for the metal fragments found at the site, the lack of an impact crater or the high level of radiation present. Was it an asteroid? Or could it have been the explosion of an extra terrestrial craft? Scientifically speaking each conclusion has equal merit.

Unknown Encounter
Original Air Date—????
Supported by interviews with Barry Taft, one of the nations leading para-psychologists, Unknown Encounter chronicles the six year haunting of a California woman and the researchers committed to finding out the truth about the her unwelcome visitor. Where does this secret guest hail from: Is he a family member, a guardian specter or just an unwanted nuisance? Was foul play involved? With the historical backdrop of first hand testimonials and the discovery of an unsolved murder involving the invading entity, this program delivers a visually rich, and spooky hour of Blair Witch like chills.

Up for Sale
Original Air Date—12 March 2000
On October 4, 1957, the Soviets launch the legendary orbiter, Sputnik, ushering in the space age. In 1998, the Russian Federation sends the first stage of the international space station, Freedom into space. While at first glance it seems little has changed, closer scrutiny reveals that billions of American dollars are being funneled to Russia to secure their participation in the Space Station partnership. Called by the elite of NASA, a foreign aid project for the Russians, the principle purpose of the program may be to abate the mass exodus of Russian rocket scientists to unfriendly nations interested in developing weapons of mass destruction.

User Review

I've only watched two episodes of this series of supposed government suppressed secrets finally revealed. The first thing that comes to mind is Dean Stockwell must have had lots of open time in his schedule as this certainly isn't going to help his resume'. It's a low budget affair to be sure, however it brings up broad validity that inquiring minds have known and wondered why there wasn't more interest in.

I say supposed secrets revealed because they intimate that the information comes from recently unearthed files. What files? There is never an actual reference to any particular information revealed in any particular document by what mechanism...Did someone seek something using the infamous"freedom of information act"? If the producers are going to insinuate this they need something more concrete for credibility sake. As general information it's fine...As entertainment it's revealing. In fact, it's the revealing nature of the show that partially redeems it. The show addresses issues that shouldn't be swept under the rug and others that demand our immediate attention. There is some "gold" in several of the quotes in the first episode regarding the joint Soviet and U.S. collaboration on the hilariously y named "International Space Station". Wally Shirais on camera telling us it was designed as the Taj Mahal and ended up an outhouse. I couldn't have read tens of thousands of pages of evidence myself and come up with a better synopsis. Dan Goldin, at the time the head of NASA, tells us exactly what NASA should be providing unbelievable irony as to what the first Bush and Clinton administrations turned NASA into during their watches. If you remember the part of what Goldin said when watching a much later episode regarding Tesla's quest for zero point energy you will get the feeling that if monies wasted on the joint space debacle were spent in achieving limitless free energy we wouldn't be worried right now about impending $5 gallon gas and transportation costs that are driving everyday staples, most obvious groceries, in the stratosphere. Also, Goldin's quote on NASA's to understand weather and natural calamities better is eeirly much more painful as the world has endured a five year period of unprecedented catastrophes in just these areas. Where is the understanding he said NASA has as part of its mandate regarding any of these occurrences? So, this show, though sloppily produced and noticeably underfunded, does have some value as to bringing up very pertinent holes in the way our government has squandered the mandate it has to serve and the populace. It is mostly entertaining, but, hopefully it will serve as a "wake-up" call to use our resources much more wisely in a way that will point to a better future. Bottom line: If we fail to learn from our mistakes we are doomed to repeat them. Time has a way of making repeat mistakes exponentially worse too. Recommended with caveats.
