Nothing surprising in the positive decision made by HISTORY since Project Blue Book has become the #1 new series (This Is Us Season 6) on cable among total viewers this TV season, averaging 3.4 million viewers in Live+3, according to the official announcement. Indeed, the season premiere has garnered 2.266 million viewers with a 0.43 key demo rating among adults (P18-49) + 1.61 million DVR viewers.

On Metacritic, the critical consensus was mostly mixed, while viewers have given a high score to Project Blue Book Season 2, tbd/100 and 7.8/10, among critics/viewers, respectively. An overall score of Project Blue Book on IMDb is very high, 7.7/10 based on approx. 12k votes (as of today).
Project Blue Book has gained success thanks to a brilliant idea, which in turn is based on the true top-secret investigations of UFOs that have been undertaken starting from 1952. Unlike other TV shows (Miz and Mrs.) such as X-Files, Project Blue Book is based on true events.
Besides, Project Blue Book is executive produced by Robert Zemeckis.
