There were two different television series programs entitled UFO. One, the British UFO produced by Science-fiction mogul Gerry Anderson ( who needs no introduction) dealt with the activities of the future SHADO agency- Supreme Headquarters, Alien Defense Organization. Shado took a hunter-killer outlook and no holds were barred- shoot on sight or tactical directive- there was frequent collateral damage- a UFO crashing into an inhabited house- and thus a need to hush local authorities like Fire Brigades- the attitude was uncompromisingly war-like- them versus us- the UFO are hostile-hence no attempts at getting into or infiltrating their missions, etc. Aliens were basically humanoid but had a different blood chemistry,( in the story). The interior of the UFO was never shown, nor any means of getting in and out of it.

The unrelated US produced "Project UFO" with Jack Webb was entirely different. Two Air Force intelligence agents analyzed UFO reports from the Blue Book, most turned up fake but there were some borderline real ones. As is the norm with Webb, violence was toned down- quite the opposite with the explosive action of the Anderson program!

"Project UFO" tried to give the impression that it was a retelling of real events. If you believe this, avoid buying real estate. Every episode was full of complete howlers-- the prop plane Thomas Mantell crashed in, having gone far too high without O2 gear, mysteriously became a jet plane, for example. And I dearly loved the episode in which Robby the Robot bent over and picked up an arrow. Robby, for all his wonderful qualities, is no more able to bend over than flap his arms and fly!
