The Conspiracy Zone is an American discussion

program about conspiracy theories
with a group of panelists, a mix of experts and celebrities. It was a half hour in length and ran for 26 episodes, though there was also an unaired pilot episode.

The show was created by Politically Incorrect producer Scott Carter and hosted by former Saturday Night Live player and comedian Kevin Nealon. The show aired on The New TNN, debuting January 2002, and was described by Carter as "a light-hearted yet open-eyed look into the world of the unexplained".[1][2][3] The show was publicized as staying away from serious topics in favor of alien abduction and other more entertaining conspiracies.[4] Celebrity panelists included Ann Coulter, Harlan Ellison,[5] Kathy Griffin, Cathy Scott and French Stewart, among others. Panelists would discuss each conspiracy followed by a vote by the live audience.[4]
