Season 1
Episodes
A Rising Enemy
A new age of terror begins in the aftermath of 9/11; fear becomes a weapon as America and its allies face a new brand of enemy in an unconventional conflict that demands an evolution of warfare as we know it. The American people adjust to a new normal of heightened security at home to prevent another attack. Abroad, the conflict that begins in Afghanistan spreads to Iraq and ultimately morphs into a global battle, as coalition efforts to eliminate the scourge of terror unintentionally give rise to ISIS. As the Islamic state becomes increasingly difficult to contain using traditional military tactics, its dark message spreads around the world through social media, gathering recruits and inspiring the first lone wolf terror attacks in Paris and Brussels.
War Without End
The war on terror enters a new phase as homegrown lone wolves begin to strike in the U.S. The American military apparatus struggles to contain a threat that has moved to a new battlefield: the internet, where ISIS and other terror groups enlist and inspire individuals to commit acts of terror anywhere they can, posting instructions and even hit lists. Tragedies in Boston, San Bernardino and Orlando are stark reminders that despite all the increases in security, the threat lingers. New and unexpected allies join the counter offensive, including hackers and U.S businesses. But a climate of fear gives rise to more hate, and a new wave of domestic terror emerges, led by white nationalists. An inside look at counter-terror efforts from cyberspace to the ongoing military operation to retake Mosul and defeat ISIS.

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.
