Deconstructed

If you've ever listened to a song that was so brilliant you couldn't help but wonder what the artist was thinking when they created it, this series is for you.

The show offers keen listeners and aspiring creators alike unique insight into the creative process behind their most beloved musical acts – straight from the artist.

The setup of Deconstructed is simple: artists talk us through what inspires their work, while also performing a handful of songs in an intimate and creative studio setting.

It's a great way to get to know artists better, in an intimate setting while also being serenaded by them with the fruit of their artistic labour.

Guests on the first season of Deconstructed include Khanyisa, BLXCKIE, Boohle, Emtee, Nanette, 25K, Manu Worldstar, Mariechan, Tshego, Bassie, Thato Saul, Rouge and Lady Zamar.

From the seed of inspiration to the final package, this 'slice of life' perspective on music production takes Mzansi's biggest hits from the charts to the living rooms of discerning fans, through a special audio-visual experience.

Motoring personality Cristy Lee stars in this home renovation series in which she sees the potential in the most unexpected, inexpensive properties in the greater Detroit area and aims to turn them into astonishing homes.

Known for her expertise fixing cars, trucks and bikes, Cristy will apply her unique talents to personalise clients' homes with custom amenities, including fabricating metal work for fireplace surrounds and kitchen hoods and repurposing wood to create a one-of-a-kind 3D map.

To start the six-episode season, Cristy will meet a frustrated couple who, after three years of searching, still can't find a property in their price range that fulfills their must-have wish list.

Outer Banks 3

Outer Banks is a coming of age story that follows a tight-knit group of local teens (the Pogues) in the beach vacation destination of the Outer Banks of North Carolina.

After losing the gold and fleeing the Outer Banks, Season 3 finds the Pogues washed ashore on a desert island that, for a brief moment, seems like an idyllic home.

Officially deemed "Poguelandia," the island's newest residents spend their days fishing, swimming and reveling in the carefree lifestyle of their temporary dwelling.

But things quickly go south for John B, Sarah, Kiara, Pope, JJ and Cleo when they find themselves once again caught up in a race for the treasure, quite literally running for their lives.

They're broke and far from home, they can't trust anyone, Ward and Rafe are hungry for revenge, and there's a ruthless Caribbean Don who will stop at nothing to find the bounty.

Was the treasure ever within their reach? Or was it all a trap to stop them once and for all?

Either way, it's the Pogues against the world – and the only way out is together.

Real estate expert and designer Christina Hall is expanding her design business across the country and putting down roots at her second home, a Tennessee farm, in Christina in the Country.

Fans have followed Christina's successful career and active family life in Southern California in her series Christina on the Coast, and now she'll start her bold next chapter in the Southeast.

In each of the six one-hour episodes, Christina will create breathtaking renovations for eager clients and make even more life-long memories with her children and husband Josh Hall in the beautiful middle Tennessee countryside.

The series opener will spotlight Christina and her team, which includes fellow designer and project manager James Bender, turning an outdated home into a modern stunner for a very special client, Josh's sister and her husband.

As the season continues, she will help couples blend their differing styles and deliver contemporary kitchens, spa-like bathrooms and customized living spaces that meet everyone's needs.

When it's time to relax, Christina and her family will explore all the Nashville area has to offer, including horseback riding, line dancing, berry picking and an alpaca farm.

They'll also add a special spot to their own property when Josh builds a chicken coop.
