While the Rest of Us Die

The secret history of the US government's doomsday plans; why when disaster hits, the elites are saved and common people die.

Narrated by Westworld's Jeffrey Wright and based on the book Raven Rock, this series explores the chasm between the powerful and the rest of us.

It exposes a hidden world inside the United States consisting of an incredible physical and legal network of secret places and procedures that began being constructed during the Cold War and continue to function to this day.

In the series premiere, "Doomsday & The President": How Cold War plans for nuclear war empowered the president to rip up the Constitution and blow up the world – and there's nothing we can do to stop it.
 

American Gigolo

Channel: 1Magic (DStv 103)
TX Time: 22h00
Genre: Drama

American Gigolo

American Gigolo, a present-day reimagining of the 1980 film, follows Julian Kaye (Jon Bernthal) after his wrongful conviction release from 15 years in prison as he navigates his complicated relationships with his former lover Michelle (Gretchen Mol), his troubled mother, and the people who betrayed him.

While Julian struggles to reconcile the escort he was in the past and the man he is today, Detective Sunday (Rosie O' Donnell) seeks the truth about the murder that sent Julian to prison all those years ago, unearthing a much larger conspiracy along the way.

Additional casting includes Lizzie Brocheré (American Horror Story: Asylum) as Isabelle, the heiress to a ring of sex workers; Gabriel LaBelle (Dead Shack) as Johnny, a younger version of Julian; Leland Orser (Ray Donovan) as Richard Stratton, a self-made tech billionaire; and guest star Wayne Brady (Whose Line Is It Anyway?) as Julian's best friend and mentor Lorenzo.

In the series premiere, "Pilot": After 15 years in prison, former gigolo Julian Kaye is suddenly exonerated from a wrongful murder conviction and released with no interest in the life he had, no chance at the life he wanted – and no idea who framed him.

Sort Of

Sort Of follows the journey of Sabi Mehboob, a gender-fluid millennial who straddles various identities from sexy bartender at an LGBTQ bookstore/bar, to the youngest child in a large Pakistani family, to the de facto parent of a downtown hipster family.

A coming-of-age story, Sort Of exposes the labels we once poured ourselves into as no longer applicable... to anyone.
