Polar Bear Town

S2, EP2 "The Search for Big Bear"

The death of a local pet by a polar bear puts the town of Churchill on edge.

Polar Bear Town

S2, EP1 "Bears vs. Belugas"

Summer arrives early in Churchill, Manitoba, and so do the polar bears, creating new challenges for the locals.

Churchill, Manitoba, Canada is a town with a population of about 800 people. During tourist season, though, that number swells to 10,000, with many of those visitors hoping to encounter a polar bear. The chances of that happening are pretty high considering that every fall 1,000 of the animals make their way through the frontier town as they migrate to Hudson Bay in search of seals. Kelsey Eliasson and Dennis Compayre are guides who help the tourists get close to the bears while keeping both the animals and people safe. Brian Ladoon runs a roadside attraction in Churchill, an Eskimo dog kennel that attracts curious bears and cash-toting travelers.

Aerial America

Some people like to hop in a car to take a road trip across America, visiting as many landmarks as possible along the way. Since such a trek can take a while to complete, taking a flight across America might be a better option for some people. "Aerial America" takes viewers on such a flight, offering rare looks at some of the nation's best-loved landmarks from high in the sky. Cameras capture the history and pageantry of America as they zoom over busy cityscapes and quiet, rural lands. Many episodes focus on a specific state, showcasing highlights of the state's beauty, while others revolve around themes such as the best small towns and natural wonders found in the country.

Drain the Oceans

Maritime mysteries -- old and new -- come to life in this series, combining scientific data and digital re-creations to reveal shipwrecks, treasures, and sunken cities on the bottom of lakes, seas and oceans around the world. Innovative technology allows viewers to see what lies on the floors of large bodies of water such as the Gulf of Mexico, the Nile, the Indian Ocean, the Baltic Sea and the Atlantic Ocean as if they had been drained. Then, in a quest to explain natural wonders and man-made catastrophes, stories tell of how vessels sank, what ancient geological formations reveal about life on Earth, where Nazi secrets now reside, and why so many continue to search for the legendary city of Atlantis.
