Season 1
Episodes
Episode 1
In the trendy, latte lover's paradise of Fitzroy, Victoria, Greig learns how a former slum where many European migrants made their home evolved into one of Melbourne's most desirable suburbs. Fitzroy was a hub for activism and the centre of the new call for Aboriginal rights in the 1970s, and once welcomed an unlikely and unscheduled visitor: Muhammad Ali.
Episode 2
Greig Pickhaver travels to the iconic and glamorous beachside suburb of Bondi, Sydney. He learns about the large Jewish community that have called Bondi home since the 1830s, and even catches a glimpse of a subtle Jewish spiritual boundary that lines the pavilion. He visits Australia's very first Milk Bar and meets fashion designer Jenny Kee who left Australia for London to follow the Beatles.
Episode 3
Now an eclectic, artistic hub, the seaside port of Fremantle has come a long way from its convict outpost days.
Greig discovers the waves of migrants who've added a splash of colour to the city; including 10-pound poms, Italian migrants and boatloads of young women who arrived on 'bride ships'.
He explores the roots of Fremantle local and AC/DC legend Bon Scott, and learns about the Rajneeshees - an obscure religious cult that painted the city orange.

Reacher
Reacher follows Jack Reacher, a veteran military police investigator who has just recently entered civilian life. Reacher is a drifter, carrying no phone and the barest of essentials as he travels the country and explores the nation he once served. When Reacher arrives in the small town of Margrave, Georgia, he finds a community grappling with its first homicide in 20 years. The cops immediately arrest him and eyewitnesses claim to place Reacher at the scene of the crime. While he works to prove his innocence, a deep-seated conspiracy begins to emerge, one that will require Reacher's keen mind and hard-hitting fists to deal with. One thing above all is for sure: They picked the wrong guy to take the fall.

The Great Food Truck Race
The Great Food Truck Race is headed to the Wild West, where host Tyler Florence welcomes seven teams of brand new food truck operators as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Just like the pioneers, they'll be using some of the West's most distinct ingredients in challenges that test their culinary skills. Each week, they'll race across the desert landscape to a new town where they'll face new challenges, cook incredible dishes and, as always, try to outsell the competition. The team that earns the least will have to walk away from the wagon trail, but the two teams that have the grit make it to the end will square off for the $50,000 prize.
