Perhaps you didn't recognize him because it's incredible that he agreed to do it: That was Oscar-winning acting great Tim Robbins ("Mystic River," 2003) as, well, a U.S. president in the 1999 spy spoof "Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me."

The bigger question for many is: Which president?

I think, at this point, we can definitively say no. However, fans of the show are nothing if not believers.

"Project Blue Book" was a scripted series on History based on a real U.S. Air Force program investigating the possibility of alien visitation on Earth.

It aired for two seasons before being cancelled in 2020. But the series creators didn't give up hope.

Fortunately for Brett Maher, the Cowboys won [on Jan. 16]; it's the first time they ever beat Tom Brady. He was 7-0 against Dallas, lifetime. Now he's 7-1.
