Fights, Camera, Action - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
Hell on Wheels
The first episode looks at rage on two wheels - hostile and aggressive encounters between bicyclists or motorcyclists and cars, pedestrians, thieves, and of course other bikers.
Public Brawls
A focus on fights taking place on the street and in public places. Trends in fighting are examined, as well as the outcomes when people pick fights with inanimate objects.
Sports
With more people than ever filming sporting events, chances are that when it all kicks off it gets caught on video. People who were at the heart of the action describe shocking incidents that took place, including hostile and aggressive encounters amongst fans, players and even parents.
Girl Fights
Whether raging at a cheating partner, a rude stranger or a figure of authority, women everywhere are physically venting their anger. And more people than ever are capturing these incidents on their phones and posting them online.
Road Rage
The increasingly popular dashboard camera is capturing incidents of road rage on video. These are hostile and often violent encounters when a driver takes exception to other motorists. People who were at the heart of the action talk about such incidents.
Mobs
Mob violence is the ultimate expression of rage. As hazardous and frightening as one-on-one fighting can be, the danger is many times greater when groups of people suddenly turn angry and violent.
Aggro on the Go
Travel is one of the most stressful aspects of everyday life, but displays of anger and violence can make it much worse. As aeroplane passengers are crammed into ever smaller spaces, air rage seems to be on the rise. Both on the ground and in the air, arguments can erupt into dangerous brawls.
Cops and Vigilantes
A focus on those who are trying to keep a lid on bad behaviour. This includes the police and the private citizens who bravely step forward when police officers are not immediately available.
Restaurants and Fast-food
A focus on fights that take place in public restaurants and fast-food joints. This is where many people end up after a night of drinking and carousing, and so it's not surprising that people often end up squaring up to one another amidst the burgers and kebabs.

The Gilded Age
The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of huge fortunes made and lost, and the rise of disparity between old money and new.
Against this backdrop of change, the story begins in 1882 — introducing young Marian Brook, the orphaned daughter of a Union general, who moves into the New York City home of her thoroughly old money aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook. Accompanied by Peggy Scott, an accomplished African-American woman, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her stupendously rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George and Bertha Russell.
In this exciting new world that is on the brink of the modern age, will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path?
The Curse of Oak Island
The Curse of Oak Island documents brothers Rick and Marty Lagina as they pursue their lifelong dream of solving more than a 220-year old Oak Island mystery. For over two centuries, teams of searchers, including Franklin D. Roosevelt, have attempted to crack the code that will unearth the treasure believed to be buried on the small island off the coast of Nova Scotia. Armed with the knowledge of those that came before them, the muscle of heavy machinery and decades of engineering know-how, the Lagina's and their partners may be closer than anyone in history to finding the treasure that has so far claimed the lives of six men.
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.
