Island Explorers - Season 1
Season 1
Adventure-loving explorers Jeremy and Wendy Gilbert reveal the greatest off-the-beaten-path spots and "locals only" experiences throughout the Hawaiian Islands in Travel Channel's new series "Island Explorers." Premiering Sunday, July 3 with back-to-back episodes at 11:00 p.m. and 11:30 p.m. ET/PT, the series highlights activities like diving with sharks and zip-lining and is part of "Dive Into Summer" – Travel Channel's summer programming lineup that showcases the world's ultimate water paradises with a touch of fun, sun, thrills and adventure.
While some activities in "Island Explorers" are a bit daring, there's plenty of insider information for the best places to eat, explore and escape at a more relaxing pace. From the most elusive hidden beach on Kauai to the coolest thing to do on the Big Island after the sun goes down, the Gilberts share some of Hawaii's best kept secrets that travelers won't find in any guidebook.
In the premiere episode, the Gilberts explore Oahu, the most visited of the Hawaiian Islands for vacationers. Jeremy and Wendy venture beyond the familiar attractions and off the usual tourist trail to reveal the number one way to catch the sunrise, find the best local snack in Honolulu, kayak to a secluded beach and have a thrilling underwater adventure with the kings of the ocean.

The Wheel of Time
The Wheel of Time is set in a sprawling, epic world where magic exists, but only women can use it safely. Meaning that in this series — women hold the keys to power. The story follows Moiraine, a member of the shadowy and influential all-female organization called the ‘Aes Sedai' as she embarks on a dangerous, world-spanning journey with five young men and women. Moiraine's interested in these five because she believes one of them might be the reincarnation of an incredibly powerful individual, whom prophecies say will either save humanity or destroy it. The series draws on numerous elements of European and Asian culture and philosophy, most notably the cyclical nature of time found in Buddhism and Hinduism.

The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City takes viewers into an undiscovered world that is about so much more than religion, although the Mormon church is undeniably engrained in the culture. In the majestic mountains of Utah is a hidden social circle made up of successful women who have created their own paradise filled with luxury homes, shopping sprees and multi-million-dollar businesses and brands. With Hollywood's exclusive Sundance Film Festival in their backyards, these Type-A power-brokers are accustomed to rubbing elbows with A-listers and what party list you are on means everything. They have mastered running wildly successful enterprises by day and enjoy après ski at the finest resorts by night, all the while raising extraordinary and unconventional families. Here perfection is not an aspiration, it's a mandate. They hold themselves and each other to an extremely high standard and never hold back when things go sideways, but lord knows they are always there for each other when they need it most.
