Features rare clips and interviews with Bruce Dern, Carroll Baker, Ernest Borgnine, John Ritter, Ricardo Montalban, and Tom Selleck. 10-11pm -- Modern Marvels - The Winchester Winchester...the name still evokes images of the Wild West and the taming of the frontier--it was the first reliable repeating rifle and settlers brought it along as they moved west. Prized by Civil War soldiers, the lever-action rifle was preferred by lawmen and outlaws alike. A classic Winchester can command upwards of $100,000 from collectors trying to buy a piece of the Old West. We see how a shirt manufacturer named Oliver Winchester became the most famous gun maker of the American West. ____________________________________________________ Friday, November 7, 2003 ____________________________________________________ 7-8pm -- Modern Marvels - Hoover Dam The task was monumental: Build the world's largest dam in the middle of the desert, and tame the river that carved the Grand Canyon--all in seven years!

Why did Kennedy's aircraft explode? Why were the facts of his death so carefully covered up? We open the file on the death of Joe Jr. and, using computer graphics and archive footage, analyze the purpose of his mission and the possible causes of the tragedy. 9-11pm -- Time Machine - Kennedys: The Curse of Power Traces the Kennedy clan's calamities that occurred on the rise to power--from immigration from Ireland up to John Kennedy Jr.'s tragic death in 1999. The first hour sees the loss of Joe Jr. in WWII and the assassinations of JFK and RFK.

Features an interview with Johnson's mistress, the late Madeleine Brown. 9-10pm -- History Alive - The Men Who Killed Kennedy: The Smoking Guns This new program in Nigel Turner's series explores evidence of conspiracy and cover-up in the 1963 murder of the 35th president and examines the Secret Service's behavior on that fateful day. Did they destroy evidence from the presidential limo to keep the focus on Oswald as a lone "nut" assassin? Also revealed, the cover-up of another shot from in front that produced a gaping wound in the back of JFK's head. Observed by Dallas doctors that day, it's been the subject of persistent government denials. 10-11pm -- History Alive - The Men Who Killed Kennedy: The Love Affair THC has exclusive access to a woman who has remained undercover since JFK's assassination and has never before been interviewed. This woman claims to have had a passionate affair with Lee Harvey Oswald that began in early 1963 and ended with his death.

Features an interview with Johnson's mistress, the late Madeleine Brown. 7:30-8pm -- Image of an Assassination - On November 22, 1963, Dallas dress manufacturer Abraham Zapruder brought his movie camera to film President John F. Kennedy's motorcade for his grandchildren. As it turned out, Zapruder captured one of the 20th century's most important documents. In 1997, two media companies created a digital replica of the original, which is presented here, along with Zapruder's business associates, photography experts, and National Archives employees, who piece together the history of the crucial 26-second film. 8-11pm -- JFK: A Presidency Revealed - President John F. Kennedy's legacy is largely defined by the permanent scar his assassination left on America's psyche. This 3-hour analysis reveals the saga of an amazing man who led the charge in a technologically advancing world, yet was restricted by personal obstacles, national crises, and international challenges. Using JFK's private records, phone logs, medical reports, and secret recordings of staff meetings, we expose a flawed giant who dominated his time through sheer determination. ____________________________________________________ Sunday, November 23, 2003 ____________________________________________________ 7-8pm -- Dead Reckoning - Blood Spatter Blood spatter evidence first came to prominence in the murder trial of Dr. Sam Sheppard. We see how it has developed since 1955, and helped solve two Washington State cases. When Kimberly Wilson was found strangled, police went to tell her family--and stumbled upon the bodies of her father, mother, and sister, with blood splattered throughout the home. And when reporters for a Bainbridge Island paper discover blood dripping from their ceiling, police find the body of a brutally beaten woman. 8-10pm -- LBJ vs The Kennedys: Chasing Demons - The death of President Kennedy thrust Lyndon Johnson into the nation's highest office--and a new chapter in a bitter feud with Robert Kennedy. One of the greatest rivalries in U.S. history, this 2-hour look at their tumultuous relationship features never-before-heard oral histories and LBJ's White House telephone recordings.

And Lee gets a few shots in against his favorite enemy--a watermelon! 10:30-11:30pm -- Tactical to Practical - Submarines/Miracle Materials/Radar: #3 Today's naval submarine is the world's deadliest weapon. Join former Navy fighter pilot and series host Hunter Ellis as he explores the technology that led from the submarine to handheld sonar devices that help tourists catch that "big" fish. We also look at miracle materials, such as carbon-fiber technology, and radar--now being used to help locate people trapped in the rubble of collapsed buildings. ____________________________________________________ Monday, November 24, 2003 ____________________________________________________ 7-8pm -- Modern Marvels - Landmines A major battlefield weapon since the American Civil War and the stuff of nightmares ever since, the civilian toll from landmines remains immense. Inflicted by an enemy that can't be seen, landmines are littered throughout 64 countries, making life a game of Russian Roulette for two-thirds of the world's poorest nations. Featuring an interview with Jerry White, co-founder of Landmine Survivor's Network, who lost a leg due to a landmine in Israel. 8-8:30pm -- Mail Call - Trebuchet/Troop Headcounts/BAR/Smart Bombs/Modern Parachutes/Boomerangs: #18 R.

Even in death, Rommel was unable to break free of Adolf Hitler, to whom he owed his military career. Yet, Rommel joined a conspiracy to kill Hitler that cost him his life. We see what led to that point, and examine his tactical brilliance in both WWI and WWII, up to his dazzling desert victories in North Africa and promotion to Field Marshal in 1942. 10-11pm -- Rommel - The Doubter June 21, 1942. Winston Churchill reads a telegram comprised of three words: "Tobruk has capitulated." It is the darkest hour of his political career. Field Marshal Erwin Rommel and his Afrika Corps pursue the British, rather than moving on to Malta, as planned by the general staff. This proves to be a mistake. We'll see how the brilliant Desert Fox's luck began to change, until ultimately he was recalled by Hitler to Germany. Was he sick, or had he lost hope? ____________________________________________________ Tuesday, November 25, 2003 ____________________________________________________ 7-8pm -- The History of Thanksgiving - From the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock, Lincoln's 1863 declaration naming it a national holiday, to turkey, Macy's parade, and football, we'll share the abundant feast of Thanksgiving history--including all the trimmings! 8-9pm -- Deep Sea Detectives - Treasure Hunt: Search for the Atocha In the 1970s, Mel Fisher became obsessed with locating and excavating the Spanish galleon "Nuestra Senora de la Atocha" that had gone down off the Florida Keys in 1622 while carrying over 47 tons of treasure. He gathered a ragtag group of divers and spent 16 years searching for the elusive ship. In 1985, he finally located the mother lode--$400-million worth of gold and silver. We join Mel Fisher's family as they continue his search for the $200-million that remains somewhere in the Atlantic. 9-10pm -- Tactical to Practical - Survival Training/People in Space/Explosives: #9 Survival in war isn't just about dodging bullets, but keeping alive in extreme conditions.

If the long journeys prove successful, all 3 should be hard at work on the Red Planet's surface by January 2004. NASA's "Spirit" and "Opportunity" and the European Space Agency's "Beagle 2" represent the pinnacle in the history of the search for extraterrestrial life.

As simple as engaging a tow man when your car is stalled? From mighty tugboats that guide massive ships safely into port to dizzying roller coasters that send cars careening up and down hills, to funicular railroads that climb mountainsides, when it comes to towing, being a "drag" was never so good! We also watch as a 125-year-old church is towed on the back of a flatbed truck, and rocket towards space as we're towed 20,000 feet-high behind a 747! 9-10pm -- Modern Marvels - The World's Biggest Machines Join us for a look at the biggest, heaviest, tallest, longest, meanest machines on the planet!

From soaring skyscrapers and sturdy bridges to jet planes and rockets, metals play a key role. Our journey begins before the Bronze Age and takes us into the shiny future when new metal structures--engineered at a molecular level to be stronger, lighter, and cheaper--shape human progress, as they have since man first thrust copper into a fire and forged a tool. ____________________________________________________ Thursday, November 27, 2003 ____________________________________________________ 6-8pm -- Movies in Time - Jesus of Nazareth, Pt. 2 Jesus (Robert Powell) grows up to become a prophet, healer, and spiritual leader, and his teachings and miracles begin to draw large crowds and a number of followers.

Hitler and Eva Braun also took the coward's way out. But what about party secretary Martin Bormann and Gestapo Chief Heinrich Muller? Did they survive the hunt for Nazi war criminals? 9-10pm -- Burma Bridge Busters - Former President George H.W. Bush hosts this heartfelt tribute to the brave men of the 490th U.S. Army Air Corps Bomb Squadron that flew 615 missions in the China-Burma-India Theater of WWII.

Interwoven are poignant interviews with vets filmed at a recent reunion in Utah, including one with Steven Spielberg's father Arnold, and newly restored private footage. 10-11pm -- Modern Marvels - B-52 For nearly half a century, one bomber has dominated the skies. With a maximum speed of 650 m.p.h., a range of over 8,000 miles, and ability to drop a massive 70,000 pounds of bombs, it's the most lethal bomber in the world. This is the dramatic story of the race to produce the first intercontinental jet bomber and the success of the B-52--from the Cold War to its use in the war against terrorism in Afghanistan. The B-52's projected combat life is until 2045--no other bomber comes close to this record. ____________________________________________________ Saturday, November 29, 2003 ____________________________________________________ 7-8pm -- Rommel - The Conspirator Ordered back to Africa, we see Rommel directly defy Hitler by retreating from El Alamein, thus saving the Afrika Korps. Their relationship was never the same again. Rommel now lived a life of contradictions--outwardly confident, inwardly convinced of defeat. We look at his life through final deployment to France to prepare for Allied invasion, return to Germany for surgery, joining in a military conspiracy to kill Hitler, and forced "suicide". His last words? "I loved Hitler and I still love him." 8-9pm -- America on the Move - Journey to Washington as host Josh Binswanger explores the Smithsonian Institution's new permanent transportation exhibit at the National Museum of American History.

From Brazil to Mexico, from Washington State to Florida, multiple witnesses, including air traffic controllers and even the military, confirm that something unexplained is repeatedly happening in the night sky. Tales of alien abductions, bizarre and chilling photographs of UFOs, and hours of videotape all abound as we search for UFO Hot Spots. 10-11pm -- UFOs: What You Didn't Know - UFOs: What You Didn't Know: When UFOs Arrive It's all hush-hush as we track a secretive global paper trail, delving into government plans on how to deal with other-planet visitors. Searching historical records, we find that protocols are in place--from the U.S. military's JANAP-146 reporting requirements to France's Cometa files, from Chapter 13 of the FEMA Fire Officer's Guide to Disaster Control titled "Enemy Attack and UFO Potential", to a now-repealed federal law titled "Extraterrestrial Exposure" ____________________________________________________ Sunday, November 30, 2003 ____________________________________________________4-5pm -- P-51 Mustang!
