‘To Catch a Smuggler’ (2020– )

The television series titled ‘To Catch a Smuggler’ will resume on September 10th. Each episode provides an insightful portrayal of U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers and Homeland Security Investigations agents as they work in significant airports such as JFK, Miami, and LAX. The show follows real-life operations which include interviews at arrivals, baggage checks, K-9 screenings, X-rays, and controlled deliveries. It delves into various illicit activities such as narcotics, undeclared money, counterfeit products, and agricultural offenses.

Created by Lucky 8 for National Geographic, this series combines quick-paced field recordings with in-depth investigations and lab analysis to demonstrate how teams at airports, seaports, and land borders dismantle trafficking operations. The personnel and cases change with each episode, ensuring a sharp focus on particular strategies and results. The new seasons kick off on September 10.

‘How NOT to Draw’ (2022– )

On September 12, I’m excitedly looking forward to the release of ‘Disney How NOT to Draw’, a humorous parody series! As an admirer, I can’t wait to see the on-screen “animator” creating beloved characters and causing mayhem instead. Each brief episode seems like a naughty drawing tutorial, filled with characters from various Disney TV Animation shows – expect cameos from ‘Big City Greens’, ‘Amphibia’, ‘Gravity Falls’, ‘Phineas and Ferb’, ‘Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur’, and many others. The fast-paced humor, rapid-fire gags, and visual tricks promise a hilarious experience!

The animated series, produced by Disney Television Animation, features a changing team of directors, scriptwriters, and graphic artists. Each episode is approximately a minute long, offering a mix of humor that breaks the conventional boundaries (fourth-wall) and humor specific to each character. New episodes will be released on September 12.

‘Dancing with the Stars’ (2005– )

The popular ballroom competition known as ‘Dancing with the Stars’ is set to return on September 16 (Tuesday). In this show, famous personalities team up with professional dancers for weekly dance performances in various styles like cha-cha, tango, contemporary, and others. The judges for this season are Carrie Ann Inaba, Bruno Tonioli, and Derek Hough, while Alfonso Ribeiro and Julianne Hough serve as hosts. This new season brings a fresh batch of celebrities from diverse fields like sports, film, television, music, and social media, each paired with either returning or debut professional dancers.

This show, similar to ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ from Britain and created by BBC Studios Los Angeles, is one of TV’s most renowned live competition series. Starting September 16, contestant couples will practice rigorous choreography within tight deadlines, aiming to win the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy at the end of the competition.
