Animal Planet is an American basic cable and satellite television channel owned by Discovery Communications. Originally focused on more educationally-based television shows, the network has featured more reality programming since 2008 and it is available throughout the United States, as well as in over 70 countries around the world. Country-specific versions of the channel have been created in Canada, India, Japan, Taiwan, as of February 2015, approximately 94,288,000 American households receive Animal Planet. Animal Planet was launched on October 1,1996, it was created by Discovery Communications in cooperation with the British Broadcasting Corporation, in late 2005, as part of a multimillion-dollar expansion, the National Aquarium in Baltimore opened an exhibit called Animal Planet Australia, Wild Extreme. The partnership also allowed the possibility of future productions of television programs about the National Aquarium in Baltimores research, in 2006, BBC Worldwide sold its 20% interest in the flagship Animal Planet U. S. network back to Discovery Communications. Animal Planet is additionally a member of the Caribbean Cable Cooperative. During the late 2000s, Genius Products announced a U. S. distribution agreement involving Animal Planet, jakks Pacific also entered into a licensing agreement to develop Animal Planet-branded pet products. On February 3,2008, Animal Planet relaunched itself as part of a new branding campaign that sheds its soft and furry side for programming and an image with more bite. As part of the relaunch, Animal Planet replaced its elephant, the goal is to move from being perceived by viewers as paternalistic, preachy, and observation-based to being seen as active, entertaining and edgy. That means targeting adults 25-49, rather than families, with less voice-of-God narration and more visceral imagery. Think of it as swapping a drab narrator saying that a lion is about to kill its prey for the scream of the doomed creature as it meets its demise. This rebranding effort continued in 2010 with a change of the slogan, from Same Planet. Recent additions to the channel, such as Meerkat Manor and Orangutan Island, reflect its shift toward predation programming, Animal Planet intended the new direction to help revitalize stagnating ratings, after primetime viewership of the network dropped by 9% in 2007. Animal Planet added pseudo-scientific documentary, reality television, and sitcom shows to its line-up, the 1080i high definition simulcast of Animal Planet launched on September 1,2007, it is available on all major cable and satellite providers. It was also launched on February 3,2009 in Norway for Canal Digital, Norway is the first country outside the U. S. to receive a high definition feed of Animal Planet. D. C. Thomson & Co. partnered with Discovery Communications to publish Animal Planet Magazine in the United Kingdom, the magazines first issue was released on February 16,2011. The deal also constitutes a first-look deal, giving Revision3 first right to distribute all co-developed shows, Animal Planet originally aired Mermaids, The Body Found on May 27,2012, and a sequel called Mermaids, The New Evidence about a year later. They tell a story of a scientific teams investigative efforts to uncover the source behind mysterious underwater recordings of an unidentified marine body, included is the generally discredited aquatic ape hypothesis as evidence that mermaids exist, along with digitally manufactured video

Great Biker Build-Off
–

The show proved so popular that more episodes were produced in succeeding years, Biker Build-Off was originally an irregularly-grouped series of contests that spanned a calendar year. The original Great Biker Build-Off was a single competition, in 2003, the second round had three contests, and the third round had six. In 2005, the program was turned into a series in which each round would feature a total of 13 contests each. There has also been a World Biker Build-Off special in 2004, various aspects of the rules have evolved over the course of the series. When the show became a series, the current rules of the Biker Build-Off were defined as follows,1. Each builder has 10 days to build a custom motorcycle in his or her respective style. During this build period, the show switches perspectives back and forth between the two builders as they and their respective teams plan and build their bikes, upon completion, the two builders bring their bikes to a mutually-agreed neutral location. Custom motorcycle master of ceremonies Hugh King will meet the two builders at the location and declare where the ride will go and where the bikes will ultimately be judged. When they meet, the two builders and their teams will begin a lengthy ride to a bike show, the ride is designed to break in each bike and ensure theyre both truly road-worthy before they reach the bike show. If a problem emerges that prevents the bike from running, the builder is allowed one hour to repair it before he/she is disqualified, at the bike show, the two bikes will be showcased and a winner decided by an audience ballot. Exceptions may occur for specific competitions, a 2007 contest designed to build drag bikes was decided by a best-of-three set of drag races

The British Broadcasting Corporation is a British public service broadcaster headquartered at Broadcasting House in London, England. The total number of staff is 35,402 when part-time, flexible, the BBC is established under a Royal Charter and operates under its Agreement with the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport. The fee is set by the British Government, agreed by Parliament, and used to fund the BBCs radio, TV, britains first live public broadcast from the Marconi factory in Chelmsford took place in June 1920. It was sponsored by the Daily Mails Lord Northcliffe and featured the famous Australian Soprano Dame Nellie Melba, the Melba broadcast caught the peoples imagination and marked a turning point in the British publics attitude to radio. However, this public enthusiasm was not shared in official circles where such broadcasts were held to interfere with important military and civil communications. By late 1920, pressure from these quarters and uneasiness among the staff of the licensing authority, the General Post Office, was sufficient to lead to a ban on further Chelmsford broadcasts. But by 1922, the GPO had received nearly 100 broadcast licence requests, John Reith, a Scottish Calvinist, was appointed its General Manager in December 1922 a few weeks after the company made its first official broadcast. The company was to be financed by a royalty on the sale of BBC wireless receiving sets from approved manufacturers, to this day, the BBC aims to follow the Reithian directive to inform, educate and entertain. The financial arrangements soon proved inadequate, set sales were disappointing as amateurs made their own receivers and listeners bought rival unlicensed sets. By mid-1923, discussions between the GPO and the BBC had become deadlocked and the Postmaster-General commissioned a review of broadcasting by the Sykes Committee and this was to be followed by a simple 10 shillings licence fee with no royalty once the wireless manufactures protection expired. The BBCs broadcasting monopoly was made explicit for the duration of its current broadcast licence, the BBC was also banned from presenting news bulletins before 19.00, and required to source all news from external wire services. Mid-1925 found the future of broadcasting under further consideration, this time by the Crawford committee, by now the BBC under Reiths leadership had forged a consensus favouring a continuation of the unified broadcasting service, but more money was still required to finance rapid expansion. Wireless manufacturers were anxious to exit the loss making consortium with Reith keen that the BBC be seen as a service rather than a commercial enterprise. The recommendations of the Crawford Committee were published in March the following year and were still under consideration by the GPO when the 1926 general strike broke out in May. The strike temporarily interrupted newspaper production and with restrictions on news bulletins waived the BBC suddenly became the source of news for the duration of the crisis. The crisis placed the BBC in a delicate position, the Government was divided on how to handle the BBC but ended up trusting Reith, whose opposition to the strike mirrored the PMs own. Thus the BBC was granted sufficient leeway to pursue the Governments objectives largely in a manner of its own choosing, supporters of the strike nicknamed the BBC the BFC for British Falsehood Company. Reith personally announced the end of the strike which he marked by reciting from Blakes Jerusalem signifying that England had been saved, Reith argued that trust gained by authentic impartial news could then be used

After the Catch

Deadliest Catch is a documentary television series produced by Original Productions for the Discovery Channel. It portrays the life events aboard fishing vessels in the Bering Sea during the Alaskan king crab, snow crab. The Aleutian Islands port of Dutch Harbor, Alaska, is the base of operations for the fishing fleet, the shows title derives from the inherent high risk of injury or death associated with the work. Deadliest Catch premiered on the Discovery Channel on April 12,2005, the first season consisted of ten episodes, with the finale airing on June 14,2005. Subsequent seasons have aired on the same April to June or July schedule every year since the original 2005 season, the 13th season will premiere on April 11,2017. The series follows life on the vast Bering Sea aboard various fishing boats during two of the crab fishing seasons, the October king crab season and the January opilio crab season. Common themes include friendly rivalries among the captains, the familial ties throughout the fleet, the stresses of life on the Bering Sea, Original Productions keeps a camera crew stationed with the Coast Guard during the filming of the show. The show has no on-camera host, a narrator provides commentary connecting the storylines as the show shifts from one boat to another. Rowe was originally supposed to be the on-camera host as well, most of the footage Rowe shot during the first season became part of the first seasons Behind the Scenes episode. A season 3 episode of Dirty Jobs saw Rowe return to Alaska to take part in a job related to the fishing industry — diesel fuel spill cleanup. Television Ratings system, Deadliest Catch is rated TV-14 with inappropriate language as a highlighted concern, for visual disguise of such items as finger gestures, bloody injuries, or non-featured crew member anonymity, the producers use the traditional pixelization or simple blurring. The Behind the Scenes special provided insight on how the program is produced, a two-person TV crew lives on each boat profiled. They use handheld Sony HVR-Z5U and HVR-Z7U HDV cameras to shoot most of the series, additional footage is provided by four stationary cameras that are permanently mounted around the ship and are constantly recording. Shots from vantage points outside the boat are accomplished through a variety of methods, including the use of a helicopter for footage near the harbor and a cameraman on a chase boat. The Season 9 Behind the Lens special shows two more filming methods, divers near the boats, and a helicopter with a belly-mounted turret camera, because of a lack of space on the boats, the crews do not have an audio mixer. Audio is recorded using wireless microphones worn by the fishermen and shotgun microphones attached to the cameras, in audio post production, the sound team attempts to use actual sounds that were recorded on the boats. Although the equipment is carefully waterproofed, the cameras are routinely damaged by corrosion, ice, Sig Hansen, captain of the Northwestern, serves as a technical advisor to the series producers. Shooting episodes of Deadliest Catch is an occupation for the camera crews on board the boats
