Backed by the Bros

Genre: Reality

Backed by the Bros

Home renovation and real estate superstars Drew and Jonathan Scott will put their professional reputation, connections and resources on the line to help struggling property investors find success in Backed By The Bros.

The 10-episode season will show another side of the Brothers - proven real estate moguls who know a good investment when they see one - as they relinquish total control of renovations to advise bewildered entrepreneurs, short-term rental owners and residential developers on high-stakes investment properties.

To get each project across the finish line in an unforgiving housing market, the popular twins will back investors with their professional expertise, experience, invaluable insights and top-notch resources - gratis.

In every episode, Drew and Jonathan will consider two potential real estate investments.

After assessing the properties and meeting the owners, they will decide who to back with their full suite of support.

Offering their expert mentorship, project management capabilities, trusted trade contacts, a team of designers and a warehouse full of construction materials, furniture and décor, Drew and Jonathan will bring every resource to the table.

The Brothers are ready to help the investors avoid pitfalls, but there's no guarantee they will listen.

Protégés may push back or go rogue, but if they make the right decisions, they'll get the best return on their investment.

In the series premiere, "Putting it All on the Line": Drew and Jonathan will review a troubled renovation project in North Hollywood that's already more than $100,000 in the hole, as well as a detached garage in Burbank that the owners hope to transform into a rental unit.

While only one will receive the backing opportunity, the other will still reap the benefits of the Brothers' consultation and invaluable advice.
 

American Detective with Lt. Joe Kenda 3

Channel: Investigation Discovery (DStv 171 / StarSat 223)
TX Time: 21h00
Genre: True Crime, Documentary Series, Docu-Drama

American Detective with Lt. Joe Kenda 3

With a 92% solve rate, Joe Kenda is one of the most experienced and successful homicide detectives in the USA.

His career was profiled in nine seasons of ID's Homicide Hunter: Lt. Joe Kenda, and now he's back to tip his cap to the other great men and women who answered the call.

Over the years, Kenda has heard about cases that defy logic and expose the depravity of human nature: investigations so confounding that the twists and turns feel more scripted in Hollywood than reality.

In American Detective, Kenda trades in his own case files to bring astounding investigations from across the country, with each episode profiling a different homicide detective whose tireless efforts helped bring justice for the victim.

Kenda guides us through the nuances of each case and the dogged detective work it took to solve the seemingly unsolvable.

Joe Kenda knows that it takes a rare breed to be an American Detective, and he uses his new series to showcase other detectives whose tireless efforts solved a tragic puzzle and helped put a killer behind bars.

In the Season 3 premiere, "It Begins With One - Part 1": When the bodies of young women appear on the outskirts of Laredo, Texas, Cpt. Calderon leads a dramatic manhunt.

It ends in a face-off with a killer.
