EndedReality showSports

Every once in awhile, something comes along that changes things. You know, that one great invention that people wonder what they did before without it. The light bulb, the car, the telephone, the Internet – all great revolutions that changed mankind. Facts of Fishing may not be one of the greatest inventions ever, but it did totally change the way people viewed fishing shows. Up until the launch, many fishing shows were seen as boring, quiet, sleepy fishing shows. You know, the same one your great granddaddy used to fall asleep to every Saturday morning.

So what makes Facts of Fishing different? First of all, it's Dave, the host. Beyond that, the series goes even further to capture what really happens on the water. Let's face it, when you look back on your fishing memories, what stories bring the biggest smiles to your face? Is it the biggest fish you ever caught or is it what really happened on the water? Like the time you hooked your Uncle Bart, or forgot to put the plug in the boat, or the big one that got away. Facts of Fishing features what really happens on the water in real time, shot over one day, allowing the viewers to see how many casts, how long Dave's been fishing, how many fish he has or hasn't caught and chronicling everything that happens and we mean everything! All this brought to your television in state-of-the-art HD.

The Late Show with Stephen Colbert

Stephen Colbert brings his signature satire and comedy to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, the #1 show in late-night. Featuring bandleader Jon Batiste with his band Stay Human, the Emmy Award-nominated show broadcasts from the historic Ed Sullivan Theater. He talks with an eclectic mix of guests about what is new and relevant in the worlds of politics, entertainment, business, music, technology, and more. Stephen Colbert took over as host, executive producer, and writer of The Late Show on Sept. 8, 2015. 

Colbert is best known for his work as a television host, writer, actor, and producer, and lest known for his charity work teaching English as a second language on Tunisian date farms. Before joining the CBS family -- and being officially adopted by network president Les Moonves -- Colbert helmed The Colbert Report, which aired nearly 1,500 episodes and required Stephen to wear nearly 1,500 different neckties. The program received two Peabody Awards, two Grammy Awards, and several unwelcome shoulder massages. It won two Emmys for Outstanding Variety Series in 2013 and 2014, both of which appear to have been lost in the move. Colbert is pronounced koʊlˈbɛər, according to Wikipedia. His understudy is William Cavanaugh, who will be hosting The Late Show approximately one-third of the time. Good luck, Bill!

As if by fate, these two seasoned officers — with very different policing skills and approaches — are forced together to solve unique and exciting crimes.

At first at odds and suspicious of each other, Arch and Fitz soon discover that they are better together... a veritable crime-fighting force.
