World War II with Tom Hanks Ep 15-16

   2026    History
In episodes 15 and 16, the war begins to close in on the Axis powers not only across battlefields, but inside the societies that created it. Germany and Japan face the turning tide in radically different ways: Hitler’s regime tries to preserve the illusion of normal life while driving production through propaganda, forced labor and terror, while Japan demands sacrifice, austerity and total obedience from its people as American submarines cut the lifelines of empire. As bombing raids, shortages and fear shatter the home front, the documentary reveals how nations built on conquest begin to feel the terrible cost of the war they unleashed.
The story then moves into one of the most powerful chapters of resistance in occupied Europe. As Allied armies advance from Normandy and Soviet forces push from the east, ordinary people and underground fighters rise against Nazi rule in France, Poland and even inside the machinery of extermination itself. From coded BBC messages and the liberation of Paris to the doomed Warsaw Uprising and the desperate courage of prisoners documenting the horrors of Auschwitz, these episodes show war at its most human and devastating: A struggle not only between armies, but between tyranny and the refusal to be erased.

The Dark Wizard Ep 3-4

   2026    History
In the final two episodes, Dean Potter’s dream of pushing free solo climbing beyond anything seen before collides with the arrival of Alex Honnold, a younger climber capable of taking the sport into terrifying new territory. As both men circle the impossible challenge of El Capitan, Dean is forced to confront not only a rival, but the fear that his place at the edge of climbing history may be slipping away. What begins as a battle for greatness becomes something far more personal: A struggle with ego, identity, isolation and the dangerous need to keep proving himself when the world is already watching.
As Dean’s mental health declines and some of his closest supporters begin to drift away, he takes a risky job in China and seems to move even closer to the edge. But a new relationship gives him a fragile sense of grounding, and his lifelong dream of flight finally comes into focus through the radical world of wingsuit flying. The final chapters become both breathtaking and haunting, following a man who searched for freedom in the air, in the mountains and in the spaces where fear becomes almost spiritual. Intimate, tense and deeply emotional, they reveal the beauty and tragedy of a life lived in pursuit of the impossible.
