They present some very interesting stuff
That "regular" science has failed to explain
you can roll your eyes till next sunday, Ancient Alien Theorists present some very intersting facts
Like the fact that many civilizations thousands of miles away from each other used similar building techniques (which we cant explain) during the same time without any way of contacting one another
at least none that we can explain
You can either call it coincidence or join the search for answers to these mindboggling phenomena

yea, Puma Punku is some crazy shit.
the fact that with our "modern" technology its difficult to replicate the cuts on the stones is huge.
but then again you can say -well, they devoted their whole lives to build these things, and of course back then they didnt have tv or internet or your dirty fucking porn to distract them, so yea it may also be very possible they did it all themselves.

i agree, they didnt have as many distractions but they were still horny little bastards that like to pillage through homes and rape the ladies. so it could be possible they got everything of ET's

Yes. The search for answers. The search for facts. Not some wild made up theories with no real evidence.
Just because we don't know the answer to something, doesn't mean we have to make up some wild story to fill in the truth.

Well its an interesting theory
and it has some evidence
Entire mountain ranges with the tops chopped off???
if that doesnt scream extra-terrestial involvement to you then idk what does
HOW do YOU think that mountain range in NAZCA was chopped n leveled

I thought they featured allot of good points. I see no reason why aliens couldn't have come here and helped us out in the past.

The stonework detail in peru was amazingly detailed!
We could use a little help now too...

I'll just claim "occams razor" on this one:
Quote:
The lines were apparently made by brushing away the reddish, iron oxide covered pebbles that compose the desert surface and uncovering the white colored sand underneath. In most places wind, rain and erosion would quickly remove all traces of this within a few years. At Nazca, though, the lines have been preserved because it is such a windless, dry and isolated location. Nazca people used simple surveying techniques in their work. Straight lines can be made easily for great distances with simple tools. Two wooden stakes placed as a straight line would be used to guide the placement of a third stake along the line. One person would sight along the first two stakes and instruct a second person in the placement of the new stake. This could be repeated as many times as needed to make an almost perfectly-straight line miles in length. Evidence that the line makers used this technique exists in the form of the remains of a few stakes found at the ends of some of the lines.The symbols were probably made by drawing the desired figure at some reasonable size, then using a grid system to divide it up. The symbol could then be redrawn at full scale by recreating the grid on the ground and working on each individual square one at a time.
And as far as mountain ranges with flat tops, you have to remember how mountains are formed.. Subduction plates which have lots of various material layers are crumpled up high into the air. Over millions (billions?) of years of erotion, the layers get worn down. But at different rates depending on the materials. In this case the peaks were made of something softer than the base of the mountain. Result: flat tops.

Sounds like a lot of nonsense.
You'd be surprised to learn (from actual scientists and textbooks no less), that the vast majority of building techniques used by ancient civilizations (including our own Hellenistic tradition), are nothing more than very simple geometric tricks.
It might even surprise you to learn that Pythagoras came up with his splendid mathematical concepts around 500 B.C. about 900 years before the Mayans built their pyramids.
It's also no mystery how the Pyramids at Giza were built, nor has it been for awhile now.
Egyptologists know from sites around the Pyramids, that it took about 20 years, and 25,000 laborers to construct them. For reference, it took 200 years to finish Notre Dame.
Moving the stones required no alien technology either, they used (as is described in some tombs of the time period) ox teams, man power, simple mechanics, and a prepared slipway to move the stones from quarry to build site.
The truth is, humans are VERY clever monkeys. Don't doubt what they can or can't do.

I usually can't stand to watch the history channels propaganda, but this one was actually good. They stayed open to the idea and actually let the people talk. Normally they get an "expert" in to explain other peoples theories and research instead of letting them talk for themselves. It made me wonder about disclosure and how this subject is moving into the mainstream and out of taboo.
Did anyone else feel that this was different from most UFO/alien/conspiracy shows on the history channel or in the media in general?

If by good, you mean there were no real archaeologists to counter all the nonsense, then yes.
If by good, you mean that the ignorance and bias of the presenters was overwhelming, then yes.

You think that they put real people on. Your kidding. They only put on the same hacks and skeptics. People that just try to ridicule them for making observations mainstream scientists/archeologist would either ignore the possibility or loose there credibility in the mainstream or ruin there career entirely for talking about it. My point was that at least these people supporting the possibility weren't shut out like usual. "little green men" HAHAHA, the world is flat you idiot.

It is obvious why you fall for this tripe. 
The presenters were all authors of books that have been previously refuted point-by-point; plus they throw in a radio show talk host whose entire show is about wacky, unsubstantiated ideas. It was nothing more than shilling.
The entire premise was: we don't understand ergo - aliens.
