Inside the Madness: Basketball, Brackets and Business
As March Madness nears tipoff, CNN Anchor and Who's Talking to Chris Wallace? host Chris Wallace dives deeply into the annual event that dominates the country, transforms non-fans into fervent NCAA acolytes, and turns the term "Bracketology" into a science. Wallace sits down with new NCAA President Charlie Baker in his first televised interview since taking over the organization. In a wide-ranging conversation, he explores Baker's plans and how he is dealing with the significant changes in college sports – like players getting paid and how to make the tournament more equitable for women.
Wallace brings in several stakeholders ranging from coaches to players to big-name experts, including Jim Boeheim, the Hall of Famer and former head coach of the men's Syracuse Orange, leading them to win the National Championship, and later named Associated Press Coach of the Year; TNT sports commentator and former NBA player Kenny Smith; ESPN college basketball analyst Jay Bilas; ESPN radio host, NBA analyst, and former NBA player Jay Williams; and basketball Hall of Famer and retired Notre Dame women's coach Ann "Muffet" McGraw, to discuss gender parity and the future of the sport.

Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
