Overnight last night at 3:01AM/2:01AMc, Netflix premiered the entire first season of Blown Away. Ten master artists turn up the heat in glassblowing sculpture challenges for the chance to win $60,000 in prizes and the title of champion.
 
Overnight last night at 3:01AM/2:01AMc, Netflix also premiered the entire first season of Extreme Engagement. An engaged couple from Australia travels the world for a year to explore marriage customs in diverse cultures. Will the journey bring them closer or tear them apart?
 
Overnight last night at 3:01AM/2:01AMc, MotorTrend.com and the MotorTrend app premiered the first episode of Fastest Cars in the Dirty South. Deep in the southern U.S. nitrous fueled engines roar as daredevil drivers race down closed tracks at speeds topping 140 miles per hour. Here in the hard driving world of grudge racing, teams of drivers, fabricators and mechanics contend for bragging rights and large amounts of cold hard cash. One unique racer, Eric Malone, and his expert team dominate the “big engine” sport. So much so that they’ve set a new standard in the grudge racing game – they’ll not only win your money but will do it by beating your fastest car using your slowest car. The show gives viewers an inside look at the unique world of grudge racing. Every episode follows Malone, his partner Brant Arnold and their team – Team 256 – as they compete in grudge races across the south. Malone’s Team 256 is a fast, fearsome group of drivers, fabricators and top mechanics. They race so fast that teams from across the region avoid them whenever possible out of fear of losing. Malone has changed the grudge racing game to attract worthy competitors. Now he takes the slowest car from another team, upgrades it and then races their opponents with their very own cars. Viewers get an inside look at every step of Team 256’s grudge racing process – from the high-stakes betting and negotiations to car customizations and the intensity and speed of race day.
 
Tonight is also the series premiere of Shangri-La on Showtime at 9/8c. A collaboration from Academy Award(R) and Emmy(R) winner Morgan Neville, legendary music producer Rick Rubin, and director Jeff Malmberg…with Rubin’s iconic studio in Malibu as the backdrop, this is a four-part docu-series that focuses on creative conversation and the emotional side of music-making. Neville directed the first two episodes of the series, and the final two are directed by Malmberg. All four episodes will be available immediately tonight on the Showtime and Showtime Anytime apps or you can view a new episode each week on Showtime itself.

Tonight is the series premiere of Ghosts of Morgan City on Travel Channel at 9/8c. Morgan City, Louisiana, is experiencing an especially troubling spike of unusual emergency calls – unexplained encounters with the ghosts of the bayou city’s turbulent past that are frightening its citizens. Police Chief James “Bo” Blair is now looking to his colleague from another jurisdiction for assistance. Chief Blair learns that paranormal activity in Shepherdstown, West Virginia, has quieted down since that town’s police chief, Mike King, worked with a specialty team to solve a rash of hauntings last year. In search of advice, Chief Blair contacts Chief King, eventually following his lead and recruiting local paranormal investigator Jereme Leonard, who teams up with former FBI agent Ben Hansen and psychic medium Sarah Lemos to look into the incidents. In each of the eight one-hour episodes, the paranormal team attempts to figure out what’s causing the recent uptick of bizarre activity by looking for patterns and clues in the new cases they investigate. With help from local historian Diane Wiltz, the team digs up the disturbing history associated with the area and begins crossing-over some of the restless spirits wreaking havoc on the small community. When they learn from Morgan City Mayor Frank “Boo” Grizzaffi that the hauntings have spread throughout the parish, the team begins working with the police departments of Patterson, Berwick and Franklin to uncover the truth behind the ghostly infestation of St. Mary Parish.

Tonight is the series premiere of Life After Lockup on WE at 9/8c. During the explosive second season fans wildly tweeted at each Love After Lockup misstep: did our cast heed the advice to run from their shaky relationships, or do they remain blissfully in love? WE tv heard the fans and delivered the spin-off, Life After Lockup. The new series follows five returning couples who fans have grown to know and love — or love to hate — as they face parole restrictions, temptation, and turbulence in their lives outside of prison walls. Will these troubled lovebirds break old habits with the support of their loved ones? Or will they break the rules and land back in the clink? Throughout the eight episodes, fan-favorites Clint and Tracie; Marcelino and Brittany; Megan, Michael, and Sarah; Scott and Lizzie; and Andrea and Lamar will face new challenges and tackle many firsts in their new lives, from raising children to buying first homes to finding work and staying sober. These committed couples are doing it all while living under the restrictions of parole and dealing with the stresses and occasional turmoil of a new relationship. Now that these former inmates have left prison, will they be able to survive the real world and stay out of prison for good?
 
Tonight is also the series premiere of Jett on Cinemax at 10/9c. Fresh out of prison, retired professional thief Daisy (aka “Jett”) Kowalski is reluctantly drawn back into doing what she does best after being forced to quit following the birth of her child. Narrowly completing a dangerous “final” job, she finds herself pulled back into a series of assignments masterminded by ruthless criminals, who are determined to exploit her skills for their own ends. Carla Gugino (San Andreas, Sin City) executive produces and stars in the title role. The series also stars Giancarlo Esposito (Better Call Saul, Breaking Bad) as powerful crime lord Charlie Baudelaire, who offers Jett one last task in Cuba, reuniting her with a former flame, but setting off a chain of unexpected events that endangers everyone she cares for, as well as Elena Anaya, Gaite Jansen, Chris Backus, Gentry White, Gil Bellows, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lucy Walters, Michael Aronov, Mustafa Shakir, & Violet McGraw.
 
Tonight is also the series premiere of Savage Builds on Discovery Channel at 10/9c. Putting his unending curiosity and nearly unparalleled inventiveness to the test, Adam Savage is taking on bigger and badder builds. From a 3-D printed titanium suit of armor inspired by Marvel Studios’ Iron Man films that actually flies to experimenting with the highly volatile liquid nitroglycerin, Savage Builds will propel Adam into explosive and unpredictable worlds with high stakes payoffs. Each episode will focus on one project as Adam collaborates with notable experts in their fields, friends, colleagues, and some of his favorite people on the planet. Among those Adam enlists to help sow controlled mayhem are Academy Award-winning filmmaker Peter Jackson, longtime MythBusters collaborator Tory Belleci, and Academy Award-winning actor Gary Oldman. Nothing is guaranteed of course when venturing into the unknown, but whether a build is a success or failure, the results are sure to thrill.
