T+E
This Fall, T+E will air the Canadian premiere of new series Natural Born Monsters, on Wednesday, October 28 at 10 p.m. ET/PT. In this series, travel junkies will follow explorer Sean Duggan’s journey to the far-flung corners of the planet to unearth these strange, rare and dangerous creatures that have all been spawned by weather itself.
What On Earth, premieres Sunday, November 8 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. The pop science series asks the big questions from the Earth’s orbit. Pictures taken by satellites from space allow experts to answer many questions that previously seemed beyond reach.
On Wednesday, November 18 at 9 p.m. ET/PT, the Canadian premiere of Big Fish Man follows Jakub Vágner as he travels through the Peruvian Amazon to track down the biggest freshwater fish on earth. He holds the most World Record catches and will chase three different fish in every episode—stopping at nothing to reel them in. Follow him as he dives off boats, paddles against the current, and swims alongside crocodiles, all in an effort to keep his title as Big Fish Man.
T+E will offer subscribers of participating television providers a look at all of its new Fall programming during a nationwide free preview event launching Monday, October 19 for four weeks.
