No one marked the fifteenth anniversary of Ancient Aliens, not the History Channel, not the ancient astronaut theorists, and not me. In honor of the show’s most lasting legacy, I am going to take a page from its playbook of constant recycling and pay tribute to the show in its most familiar form: by lightly revising and repackaging the piece I ran on its tenth anniversary.

I suppose I shouldn’t be too surprised that after just three cobbled-together clip shows to start its new season, Ancient Aliens is already going on a break, substituting an even longer, multi-hour clip show under the Ancient Aliens Declassified brand. Anyhow, it turns out that I missed a bizarre appearance in which Tucker Carlson has some things to say about ancient history after descending further into the Ancient Aliens / Ancient Apocalypse rabbit hole.
