Season 1
Episodes
Paris
In episode one Joanna sets out to discover the secret to the Parisian's effortlessly cool exterior and passionate belief in freedom and individuality. She takes a hot-air balloon ride, visits the fire-damaged Notre-Dame, meets heiress Daphne Guinness, buys a vintage Chanel suit, and meets Ibrahim, refugee turned inner-city beekeeper.
Rome
Joanna's visit to Rome includes a look at the Trevi Fountain, and a meeting with one of the most famous paparazzi. She also gets to unlock the Sistine chapel with its single key, and chats with movie star Gina Lollobrigida at Bulgari's flagship store.
Berlin
In episode three Joanna's Berlin tour begins at The Festival of Lights which transforms the city's most famous landmarks using the clever art of luministic projections. The next day Joanna decides there's no better way to see the landmarks than with The Curves - Berlin's all-female motorcycle club. Joanna heads to Spandau meeting Jack Hunter, the mayor from Old Texas Town, a replica of a western town. Joanna then trades in the cowboy hat for far more glamourous hats belonging to Frau Hat – the hat lady of Berlin. Joanna explores the collection that truly encapsulates Berlin's free- spirited rebellious nature.

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!
