In the extreme north, in a wild land of untapped riches and where East meets West, the hunt for a legendary ghost ship in Alaska reveals a corner of the United States once known as "Russian America." And after 150 years, new clues lead to the graveyard of a tragic American fleet many believed would never be found.
2 Rise of the Mob

Al Capone, Lucky Luciano, the Five Families: The Mob took America by storm in the early 20th century. But where did their wealth and power come from? A New Jersey wreck full of whisky bottles reveals a criminal network; in the Detroit River a 1920s truck proves international borders mean nothing to the Mob; and in Chicago a floating speakeasy shows how politics and the underworld go hand in hand.
3 Secrets of the Dinosaurs

The Age of Dinosaurs – an ancient world of savage, lone T-rexes terrorizing dopey plant-eating diplodocus. So familiar… but so wrong. From the colors of their skin to the way they flock and herd, so much of what we think is true about dinosaurs is either out of date, guesswork, or all-out fantasy. Now a new generation of paleontologists, armed with the latest tech, are challenging these popular caricatures to uncover the Real Jurassic Americas.

Archaeologists explore the coast of Oregon for the remains of a ship that sank over three hundred years ago. Native American oral histories tell of a shipwreck and its survivors.

Archaeologists reconstruct their impression of the sunken wreck, using historical data and their own expertise, revealing how this giant ship carried hundreds of tons of cargo nearly halfway round the world.

I have loved this series since it started. The first one I ever watched was about Titantic & I was hooked. This show gives viewers a unique look at things we wouldn't be able to see otherwise. It's often easy to forget that the subjects of each episode were real & working, with flesh & blood humans once upon a time bc we've read about them in books or watched documentaries. "Drain" makes it all tangible again & we learn new things or relearn what we thought we knew already. It's a must watch!
