Episodes
Iceland: Land of Fire
Iceland is the world's largest volcanic island, a fact that's makes it a breathtaking, but deadly, geological marvel. Take a journey along a ridge that divides continents, follow endless fields of solidified lava, and witness the rare and striking spectacle of a volcano erupting under a glacier.
Iceland: Land of Ice
Eleven percent of Iceland remains covered by glaciers. And although these titanic ice sheets recede every year, their tremendous power continues to change the landscape. Witness how the glaciers carve out fjords, valleys, and mountains, and lead to some of the world's most spectacular waterfalls.
High Tide at the Bay of Fundy
Mosses that tower 10 stories high and insects of horror-film proportions are part of the Bay of Fundy's peculiar ecosystem, which dates back hundreds of millions of years. With the highest tides on Earth, waves rip rocks off cliffs and reveal fossils that are vital to understanding the history of our planet.
Journey to Wales
The hostile waters surrounding Wales have caused hundreds of shipwrecks and sculpted the stunning scenery of its wild coastline. Take a serene tour of the world's longest continuous coastal footpath and explore its mysterious caves, cliffs full of fossils, and causeways that disappear.
Ireland: Clash of the Coasts
Ireland is a land studded with majestic natural landmarks. Learn the history and myths behind the distinctive features of this rugged island, including the 700-foot-tall Cliffs of Moher, the 40,000 stone columns known as Giant's Causeway, and Slieve Gullion, a mountain that rose from molten rock.
The Canadian Rainforest
The tectonic forces that bring life to Canada's rainforest paradise, Vancouver Island, belie a dangerous feature: the inevitability of a megathrust earthquake that could trigger a 4,000-mile tsunami! The question scientists have yet to answer is when it will strike.

Leanne
Leanne's life takes an unexpected turn when her husband of 33 years leaves her for another woman. Starting over when you're a grandmother and in menopause isn't exactly what she had in mind, but with the help of her family she will navigate this new chapter with grace, dignity and jello salad.
Buried in the Backyard
Buried in the Backyard examines true-crime stories of victims found buried in the most unsuspecting of places. While most people enjoy their backyard as a safe haven, others are not so lucky when they discover the horrors lurking beneath well-trimmed hedges and manicured fences. Uncovering the remains is only the beginning, however, as each hour-long episode follows a unique police investigation to identify the body, determine a cause of death and find the person responsible. Captivating recreations, along with first-hand accounts from those closest to the victims and law enforcement agents involved in the case, bring each shocking tale to life. As investigators dig into the "how" and "why" surrounding each crime, viewers are taken on an unpredictable journey and reminded that this could happen to anyone - in any home, in any neighborhood.
Good Omens
According to The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch (the world's only completely accurate book of prophecies), the world will end on a Saturday. Next Saturday, in fact. Just before dinner.
So the armies of Good and Evil are amassing, Atlantis is rising, tempers are flaring. Everything appears to be going according to Divine Plan. Except Aziraphale, a somewhat fussy angel, and Crowley, a fast-living demon--both of whom have lived among Earth's mortals since The Beginning and have grown rather fond of the lifestyle--are not actually looking forward to the coming war.
And someone seems to have misplaced the Antichrist...
