Ten-part 2002 science-fiction miniseries produced by Steven Spielberg, tracing alien encounters and government secrecy across three American families.
Taken, billed as Steven Spielberg Presents Taken, is a ten-part television miniseries produced by DreamWorks Television and broadcast on the Sci Fi Channel in December 2002. Created and written by Leslie Bohem with Steven Spielberg as an executive producer, it follows three families across several generations, beginning with World War II pilots and the 1947 Roswell era and ending in the present day of the story.
The Keys family experiences repeated abductions; the Crawfords build careers around a secret government investigation; and the Clarkes become central to an alien-human breeding project. By moving through parents, children, and grandchildren, the series treats abduction and contact as inherited trauma as much as spectacle. Dakota Fanning plays Allie Keys, a child whose abilities and ancestry draw together the alien and government plots.
Taken assembles many established UFO motifs into one continuous mythology: missing time, implants, screen memories, recovered debris, clandestine laboratories, Roswell, and hybrids. It does not present those elements as documentary reconstruction. Their dramatic power comes from blending stories that developed in different decades into a family epic about obsession, secrecy, and the cost of treating people as experimental subjects. Contemporary promotion emphasized Spielberg’s role, while Bohem’s long-form script supplied the series’ structure and emotional continuity.
The production won the 2003 Emmy for Outstanding Miniseries and remains an unusually ambitious example of UFO television before the post-2017 UAP era. Its influence is clearest in how it translated specialist lore into mainstream character drama. Taken belongs to the cultural history of alien belief rather than the evidentiary history of any one case: a fictional synthesis that made the themes of government secrecy and cover-up legible across fifty years of American life.
On November 6, 2016, an Anonymous person in Ellensburg, Washington submitted a photograph to MUFON under Case No. 80268, regarding an incident from June 17, 2016. The witness said this image was ""Taken by a friend i was video chatting with on saturday night.... this whatever had to be right behind me." The witness alleges that the case/photograph was investigated by facebook.com/centerstateparanormal and they "concluded that it was a grey"
Hello I wanted to ask for some reccomandations on Movies, TV series or documentaries that I might not know about , I am getting a bit tired of podcasters and talking heads, so I was wondering if there is anything fun to watch.

💥👽 Grusch: Non-Humans (Aliens) Were Taken Alive and Detained, and Dick Cheney Was Somehow Involved👽💥 (If what Grusch says is true, our leaders are going to pay a huge price for keeping this from us.) @DrPhil: "Have any of these pilots or occupants of these craft, to your knowledge, been taken alive?" Grusch: "Yes, and I know people who have had direct interactions in a detainment situation. Which sounds very Star Trek and sounds very crazy, but it is true. And I talked to a Cabinet member...

Disclosure, for all intents and purpose. I am by any stretch, rather confounding as an individual. Sure, everyone wants to be special, I am special in a way that is not often comfortable for myself or usually for others. Now the latest Disclosure Day film, and his previous Taken show, indicated a potential for there being hybrids here on the planet, and whatever that might mean is up to all of us to determine. I would hesitantly say that I am similar to one of these individuals, but would not...
I love the miniseries and it is fun to see that people can find it online. Here is one of the playlists: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXkeH6bNuCQ6ds_nTlmkpqrPKCCJgb9Ym
I’m not suggesting the character WAS based on Mellon.. but I just finished the Taken series last night and it hit me! They are just way too similar, eh? What do you guys think?
I’ve been thinking a lot more about whether Spielberg knows something and has been asked to make certain movies such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, ET, Taken, and Disclosure Day to prepare people for a big reveal of something. I seem to be seeing a videos on social media on this topic, so thought I’d ask what this community thinks about the above, or is it simply coincidence? What do you think?
