EP1 Plane Crash Oct 07, 2012

Season 2 of Curiosity is getting things started with a bang. OK, it's more than a bang. A whole lot more. In a TV first, Discovery Channel remote control crashed a 727 plane. Yes, you read that right - CRASHED A PLANE. In the name of science, of course. The Boeing 727 passenger jet was deliberately crashed in a remote and unpopulated part of the Sonoran Desert, to recreate a serious, but survivable, passenger jet crash landing. Narrated by actor Josh Charles (THE GOOD WIFE), this episode takes viewers inside a full-size passenger airplane on its final flight. An international team of experts is using this amazing event to study the crashworthiness of the aircraft's airframe and cabin as well as the impact of crashes on the human body.

EP2 The Devil's Triangle Oct 14, 2012

In December 1945, five U.S. Navy bombers set out on a training mission from south Florida, heading east over the Atlantic Ocean. After the planes and their crew failed to return to base, another plane was sent out to find the missing men. Neither the original planes nor the rescue plane were ever seen again. Magazines and newspapers reporting on this mysterious event began to refer to the area as the Bermuda Triangle. Over time, the name stuck, as members of the media continued to catalog other strange disappearances and mysterious happenings in that area. In the last hundred years, countless lives have been lost but nobody is really sure why. People have blamed everything from space aliens to sea monsters for the disappearances of ships and aircraft between Bermuda, Puerto Rico and Miami.

EP3 I Was Mummified Oct 21, 2012

From museums to monster flicks, we're all pretty familiar with mummies. But how much do we really know about them? Turns out, there's quite a bit of missing information -- particularly in regard to the actual process the Egyptians used some 3,000 years ago to preserve their dead. In this compelling episode, Curiosity follows a team of scientists and experts as they attempt to crack the ancient and arresting recipe, and perform a modern-day mummification.

EP4 Brainwashed Oct 28, 2012

In this episode of Curiosity, we delve into an intriguing -- yet controversial -- topic. If you've read or seen the Manchurian Candidate, then you might be familiar with the big question Brainwashed is trying to answer: Could someone be brainwashed into being an assassin, going against his or her own natural will to commit murder? A team of scientists, with the help of world-renowned hypnotherapist Tom Silver, set out to discover whether we truly are in command of our own minds in this audacious experiment to see if ordinary people can be brainwashed and turned into assassins.

EP5 Battlefield Cell Nov 04, 2012

As fall gives way to winter, we all know what that means ... tis the season! And we're not talking holidays -- we're talking flu season. Ever wonder what's going on inside your body when it's under attack? Just how does your body fight back to stop a virus from advancing. Every day, trillions of cells inside your body engage in a life and death struggle with viruses and a variety of enemy intruders. This episode of Curiosity presents that battle in all its surprisingly stunning glory as it explores the once invisible world of the human cell. Based on the latest scientific research -- combined with new imaging and CGI technologies -- we expose this world like never before by revealing a human cell's 48-hour battle to the death with a virus.

EP6 Sex in America Nov 11, 2012

It's an all-American pastime. And if you watched the Season 1 episode hosted by Maggie Gyllenhaal, you know why it's so much fun. This season, we're tackling the topic again -- but this time in an even bigger way by looking at the largest national U.S. sex survey to see what sex in the 21st Century is all about. No questions were too bold for the Indiana University national survey. In fact, only one other survey has ever asked so many Americans such a wide range of questions about sex -- and that was conducted 60 years ago. Over the course of a decade, Alfred Kinsey and his research team conducted thousands of interviews questioning Americans about their most intimate sexual practices -- the results were revolutionary. But how dated has that research become -- and how much has sex in America changed in the last six decades? In “Sex in America,” airing Sunday, Nov.

EP7 Megastorm Nov 18, 2012

One of the most treacherous weather events to hit the United States, Hurricane Sandy has affected millions. But how did this so called "frankenstorm" become so powerful? Using on-the-ground expert analysis and CGI and satellite imaging, Curiosity explores how distinct phenomena combined to create the perfect storm and how we can prepare for the next one. The episode also takes viewers inside the storm via on-the-ground camera and smartphone footage from Sandy survivors. Watch as they share their stories, some narrowly escaping the megastorm, and recount what it was like as Sandy engulfed their city.

EP8 Mankind Rising Nov 25, 2012

How did we get here? In this episode -- Mankind Rising -- Curiosity answers this question by tracing the ultimate adventure: Mankind's journey of life from the first cell to present day. This is the improbable story of human existence -- where we’ve risen from raw materials of Earth to the big-brained, two-legged mammals we are today. One change or predator along the way and this story would have never been told.

EP9 Volcano Time Bomb Dec 09, 2012

Millions of people live in the shadow of active volcanoes never knowing when their volatile neighbors could blow. In fact, predicting when a volcano will erupt is nearly impossible. But scientists around the world are getting closer to unlocking their deadly secrets. In this episode of Curiosity, you'll join the world's leading experts as they use state-of-the-art CGI compositing techniques to journey into the heart of these frightening powerhouses to demonstrate how they work and why they are so difficult to understand.

EP10 What Destroyed the Hindenburg? Dec 16, 2012

There are dozens of theories about what caused the calamitous crash of the Hindenburg on May 6, 1937. But what really happened? In this episode of Curiosity, a team of aeronautical engineers sets out to see which theory is correct by building three perfectly accurate 50-foot replicas of the ill-fated airship. Those who tune in will get to see these experts put the leading theories to the test and find out what really destroyed the Hindenburg.

EP11 X-Ray: Yellowstone Dec 23, 2012

With more than 2 million acres of some of America's most rugged, yet beautiful, terrain, Yellowstone Park is not only a national treasure, it's also home to hundreds of species. But beneath its breathtaking beauty lie many unsolved mysteries. In this episode, Curiosity -- with the help of some truly cutting edge imaging technology -- peels back the layers to reveal the invisible forces at work in this iconic place. From the race to predict a massive volcanic eruption and exposing other deadly forces at work to hunting a microscopic predator and seeing nature’s engineering marvels like never before, this is Yellowstone as you’ve never seen it.

EP12 Sun Storm Dec 30, 2012

You probably already know that the sun is super old (4 billion years) and incredibly hot (10,000 degrees Fahrenheit). And you might even know that, since it's a giant ball of plasma, it's packed with energy (it will likely blaze for another 6 billion years). It's a friendly neighbor, too -- providing heat and light that make life here on Earth possible. But all isn't entirely rosy. Did you know our sun has a dark side? It's capable of massive destruction! On its surface, a massive storm is brewing -- one so large that it could knock out the power grid, crippling everything from communications systems to banking systems to our water supply. But how prepared are we for a massive solar storm? In this episode, Curiosity goes on a virtual expedition through the heart of the sun to see how these super solar storms form and more.

Reviews

J M If you are looking for a documentary or anything to improve your knowledge - stay away from this show. After the first episode (which was narrated by Stephen Hawking) it seemed as if it wasn't THAT bad, even tough the information was spread rather thinly (as someone mentioned here before), but going into episode two you're going to be overwhelmed with crazy assumptions that bare no connection to reality at all. Rule of thumb: a show that is presented by a person who seems to wander aimlessly through a mysterious room while the camera changes its angle every half second usually is just as bad as those sequences tend to look.If you like Trash TV, just go right ahead - but please: don't believe anything you hear here without checking the facts.

James Burd Oh, wow ... this show is BAD. The material presented is not that new, but much (most?) of it is presented as if it is a stunning new discovery. The filmography is horrible. I can't stand the shaking camera, the constant out-of-focus shots, and the panning-out-of-focus-extreme-closeup shots. I had to just listen to the show and ignore the video portion in order to make it through the episode. I imagine someone is trying to make a name for themselves, trying to get away from the "standard, boring" style of most documentaries. But it was so constantly distracting that I lowered my rating from 5 to 2.

JDioon I have been an involuntary witness to the decline of Discovery Channel's level for the last five years. The network used to offer a wide range of educational programs and would often enlighten the viewer. Now, in order to attract a wider audience, they decided to cut knowledge into fine slices, get rid of half and spread the other sliced half all throughout an episode. What you get is repetitiveness and a strange effect that makes the viewer (who was around before the meltdown) feel like a total jackass for being spoonfed individual facts that -together- make up one scientific theory (merely skimmed on the surface by lack of depth). So, Curiosity is NOT what you're looking for if you know anything about any subject they were able to come up with. The drugs episode had me convinced: nothing new there. The one about the universe ... well... resort to Stephen Hawking's Into the Universe (2010) if you feel like being taught something genuine and worth knowing. Curiosity is for those who are new to Discovery Channel's new attitude towards science and television in general. If you know nothing, consider this Class 101 and the teacher knows almost as much as you do.The only thing that is amusing, is that different celebrities host different episodes. Listening to Morgan Freeman's voice was quite soothing. So that's why I gave this 5/10 instead of 4/10.

jf2097 Apart from one or two episodes this documentary is very very poor. It seems to be targeted at the American audience as it kind of implies that America is "The World". Regardless of this it has very few factual information and is mostly fictional.The Titanic episode is one of the most disappointing. It supposedly uses real testimonies but they don't support it with actual evidence like pictures of the actual structures or of the records themselves, so you kinda get that feeling that most of it is made up. The aliens episode is just a bad Sci-fi movie while the cavemen double-episode is basically a bad reality show.In the end... The only real good episode is the first one but if you compare it to "Through the Wormhole" its not nearly as good... We'll I guess the one about America is kinda decent too and the one about sex as a few interesting facts but they still feel like they were made for dummies.
