The Planets: Season 1: Episode 5 -- In Star, the series shifts focus to the center of our solar system to take a close look at the sun and its relation to the other stars in the galaxy. Besides providing light for our planet, the sun is responsible for some incredible phenomenon. We see eclipses and northern lights, and study the effects of the sun alongside theories about the historical worship of the sun by ancient cultures.

The most anticipated television event of the year returns for a second season. AMC's The Walking Dead is "breathtaking in its small moments" (Wall Street Journal) and "creepy from the first frame" (Variety). The end of civilization was just the beginning for Rick Grimes and the other survivors. As the fight to stay alive intensifies and personal rivalries continue to fuel, the group struggles to hold on to their humanity in a time where slim chances are all that is left. Based on Robert Kirkman's hugely successful and popular comic book series, AMC's original series, The Walking Dead is an epic, edge-of-your-seat drama where personal struggles are magnified against a backdrop of moment-to-moment crisis. A survivalist story at its core, the series explores how the living are changed by the overwhelming realization that those who survive can be far more dangerous than the mindless walkers roaming the earth. They themselves have become the walking dead. The New Season of The Walking Dead premieres Sunday, October 16th at 9/8c. Only on AMC.
