Air Power

Produced shortly after the fiftieth anniversary of powered flight, this documentary series, hosted by veteran news anchor Walter Cronkite, traced the development of flight from the Wright Brothers to the present day. In addition to the impact of air travel on society and the economy, this series also took a detailed look at the military uses of air power, from the dogfighting biplanes of the First World War, to the high powered bombers and jet fighters of the 1950's.

Flashpoint

5 Seasons
When the Strategic Response Unit arrives, the rules change. The bad guy is caught--he just doesn't know it yet. The SRU, inspired by Toronto's Emergency Task Force, is a handpicked team of elite cops. High risk is their business and these men and women do it all: rescue hostages, bust gangs, defuse bombs, Talk down suicidal teens, Protect the Pope. They handle state-of-the-art weapons--sniper rifles, flash-bang grenades, tasers. They climb the sides of buildings and See through walls using state of the art tech. But they're different from other SWAT teams because their arsenal also includes a gift for words, a knowledge of human intuition and an instinct for when it's time to negotiate--and when the 'solution' calls for something more. On the scene, they're in charge and no one knows their job better. SRU Constables outrank senior Inspectors--and the Inspectors don't like it. Regular uniforms grumble when pushed aside by the SRU 'prima donnas.' While secretly wishing they were in their place. It's a tough job. A job that carries the kind of pressure only your teammates--your band of brothers--can really understand. It's a stress that shades all your choices and can take a heavy toll on families, friends, lovers... These people are A-types and risk-takers. On the job, they play by the rules, bend them if they have to. But off the job, all bets are off.

Joan of Arc

1 Season
Joan d'Arc (Leelee Sobieski) is born in 1412 in the village of Domrémy in the war zone of Northern France. During her youth, she often witnesses the horrors of war, but her spirit is kept high by the legend of the Maiden of Lorraine. This says that a young maiden one day will unite the divided country and lead the people to freedom. When eleven-years-old, she starts hearing voices from Saint Catherine and Archangel Michael. Through them, she is commissioned by God to go to Prince Charles (Neil Patrick Harris) in Chinon, to convince him to become the King of France, and drive the English occupants away. Charles thinks that Joan could be the catalyst that animates his disheartened troops. He commissions her to lead the army together with Captain La Hire (Peter Strauss). After their victory at Orléans, Joan participates in the coronation of Charles in Reims. Bishop Pierre Cauchon (Peter O'Toole) accuses her of heresy, and is relocated to Northern France, where he associates with the English occupants. Joan breaks Charles' treaty with Burgundy by attacking Paris. Her troops are defeated, and Charles betrays her by letting the Burgundians capture her. They hand her over to their English allies, who put her on a trial led by Bishop Pierre Cauchon. The court sentences her to be burned at the stake as a heretic.
