Main Feature: LAGRANGE -THE FLOWER OF RIN-NE-
Following the huge successes of MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM and NEON GENESIS EVANGELION, we focus this time on the latest next-generation, totally new robot TV animation, Lagrange - The Flower of Rin-ne. The broadcasts started in January, 2012. The cartoon is set amid the broad blue seascapes of Kamogawa City in Chiba Prefecture. The heroine is Madoka Kyono, a cheerful and determined senior high school girl. One day, she suddenly encounters a strange but beautiful girl named Lan, who invites her to take a ride in a robot... and her life will never be the same again. The girls battle to defend the people and streets of Kamogawa against space enemies in this youth fantasy. The robots were amazingly designed by car designers of the Nissan Motor Company! More than 60 car designers and modelers submitted works and the winners were used in the animation. It is a stylish, gag-filled cartoon made through cooperation across industrial sectors, a collaboration between Japan's famous animation and car industries! What chemical reaction will this now produce?

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!

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.
