Danger Diet Crazes

"Drop 20 pounds in two weeks," "Get the perfect six-pack and muscle definition," "Eat all you want but still lose weight!" "Take these supplements for optimal health." These days, celebrities, professional athletes, "health" coaches, and influencers make fortunes and garner millions of followers and likes touting unorthodox – and often dangerous -- diets and health practices to achieve society's ideas of perfection and/or optimal wellness, and some people follow their idols and trends blindly. Meet John, who promotes the benefits of a raw animal product diet to his Instagram followers. Then, Jules not only follows a high-fruit raw vegan diet – but also feeds it to her 3-year-old daughter. Next, meet two women who were influenced to jump on one of the most popular new diet trends: taking a diabetes medication for weight loss. However, both landed in the hospital. And, Cameron, a young woman looking to lose weight fast who was influenced by social media to try the Keto diet to quench her sugar cravings, wound up in the E.R. Plus, a woman says her online bodybuilding coach suggested an autoimmune paleo diet which caused her to lose hair, have frequent injuries and also landed her in the hospital. Dr. David Nazarian and nutritionist Desiree Nazarian discuss extreme diets and health risks.

In this workplace comedy, a group of dedicated, passionate teachers — and a slightly tone-deaf principal — are brought together in a Philadelphia public school where, despite the odds stacked against them, they are determined to help their students succeed in life. Though these incredible public servants may be outnumbered and underfunded, they love what they do — even if they don't love the school district's less-than-stellar attitude toward educating children.

Wild Cards

Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
