World's Weirdest - Season 5
Season 5
Episodes
Mutants
When life throws out a challenge to survival, animals have to come up with creative ways around it—or risk extinction. Their solutions are often ingenious—and stranger than anything we can imagine. The moray eel had to evolve a second set of teeth in its throat just to swallow. The Komodo dragon can kill with bacteria to make up for its weak jaws. And sand tiger sharks eat each other in the womb, so they can be born big and strong. In a world where only the fittest survive, the future belongs to these mutating problem-solvers.
Survival of the Strangest
For animals in the wild, preparing for emergency situations can mean the difference between life and death. From beavers building emergency bunkers to spiders laying hairspring traps to catch their next meal, these creatures prepare for just about anything in some of the world's weirdest ways.
Sharks!
Sharks are one of the oldest species on the planet, so they have had plenty of time to evolve and develop some of the weirdest and most diverse skills and survival tactics. Discover the odd behaviors of sharks of all sizes, from the vicious hunters to the scrappy bottom-feeders, as they have never been seen before.

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.
