Back in the early 90s there was a thirty-minute TV show on the Sci-Fi Channel about a man who did weekly reports on UFOs and the supernatural. It was very low-budget.

It is difficult for me to search for the show because I don't remember much else than that.

In one episode he walked around a city with a camera and talked about how to capture a UFO on camera if you see one, using a low-flying plane as an example.

Does anyone know the name of this show?

Perhaps SIGHTINGS (1991-1997).

Sorry that's not it. It was very amateurish, even for the Sci-FI channel. It was literally a white guy with giant-thick eyeglasses and a mustache talking about aliens and supernatural things. It was so long ago that I might not be remembering it correctly.

Maybe FLYING SAUCERS ARE REAL-narrated by Stanton Friedman, parts one and two.

I don't know if this helps, but I think the OP is remembering the show that used to follow Sci-Fi Buzz. Can't remember the name, though.

Hey Bargle5, did this show follow Sci-Fi Buzz or precede it? The reason I ask is that the ending of Mysteries From Beyond is by far what I remember most about the show, aside from its cheapness and odd host. Ruehl would solicit stories and footage from viewers, saying they might gain a "small measure of renown, and that's better than a slap on the belly [slaps himself on the belly] with a wet trout." I watched Buzz all the time, so maybe I caught the ending of Mysteries tuning in to watch that show. I do recall Mysteries doing a segment on cryogenics though.

By the way, that ending was the only way I identified this. Never would have remembered that title.

As best I can remember it followed. Given how many years it's been, I'm not certain.
