The Secret City
1985
star 6The Secret City was a television program designed to teach children how to draw, starring Mark Kistler as as the fictional ‘Commander Mark’ who led viewers and in-studio club members through various drawing exercises in a sci-fi clubhouse setting full of fun, fantasy, and adventure. While the show’s format essentially prioritizes instruction over narrative, ongoing ‘drama’ is created by the frequent addition of new key features to the emerging scenery of the giant Secret City mural. Often Special Guests would appear on the show to demonstrate other art forms or practical applications for drawing skills. The show was created by John Price & Mark Kistler, based on Bruce McIntyre's AVDP. Much of the series was edited live in-camera and was shot in a somewhat semi-scripted format. It was produced at Maryland Public Television through private funding by Children's Video Associates, and intended for broadcast via national PBS syndication. It also aired on TVOntario.To Catch a Predator

To Catch a Predator
2004
star 7.1To Catch a Predator is an American reality television series that features hidden camera investigations by the television newsmagazine program Dateline NBC. It was devoted to impersonating underage people and detaining male adults who contacted them over the Internet for sexual liaisons. People were lured to meet with a decoy under the pretense of sexual contact and then confronted. Show host Chris Hansen clarified in an interview with NPR News that these subjects should be labeled as potential sexual predators, and not pedophiles. "Pedophiles have a very specific definition, people who are interested in prepubescent sex," he stated. The series premiered in November 2004, and featured 12 investigations in total held across the United States. The investigations were conducted as undercover sting operations with the help of on-line watchdog group Perverted-Justice. Since the third installment, law enforcement and other officials were also involved, leading to the arrests of most individuals caught. No new episodes hPredators Killing for a Living

Out in the wilderness death is a daily event. Nobody can do the hard work for the predators, and their domains testify the eternal process of killing or be killed. Here you get to see the world's fastest and most blood thirsty animals, such as the killer whale (Orcinus orca) risking to strand themselves in the hunt for an evening snack of seals. The cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) catching a Thomson's gazelle (Eudorcas thomsoni) in a sprint with speeds over 100 km/h. The Great White (Carcharodon carcharias) using it's sensory abilities to feed off the depths, and the grizzly bear (Ursus arctos horribilis) intercepting reindeer. In this documentary we get to see the flock animals, the lone hunters and the lethal masters of camouflage caught on film. In dramatic, intense and close sequences the eating habits of nature are captured, and you only have two choices: to kill or be killed.Women Who Spit
