It ’s fairly thin on the ground on Monday , once again , but there are a couple of British programmes ( see what I did there ? ) making their U.S. debuts .
Our cream of the twenty-four hour period is The Incredible Human Journey , a skill / travel show whichaired on BBC 2 last yearand is finally making its U.S. debut on the Travel Channel at 8 phase modulation . We all missed the fact that its first episode ( of five ) aired last week , but the second instalment is tonight . Last week ’s episode apportion with the human race ’s evolution and emersion from Africa . And with this second episode , this search at evolution and human account locomote to Asia . Here ’s the indorsement :
[ T]he journey extend into Asia , the world ’s heavy land mass , in a quest to discover how early hunting watch - gatherers managed to survive in one of the most inhospitable places on ground – the Arctic region of Northern Siberia . Alice meets the nomadic Evenki the great unwashed , whose lives are dictate by reindeer , both wild and tame , and discovers that the endurance technique of this very ancient hoi polloi have been pass down through generations . Alice also explores what may have occurred during human migration to produce Formosan strong-arm characteristics , and regard a controversial title about Chinese evolution : that the Chinese do not apportion the same African filiation as other peoples .
That ’s such a controversial claim that I ’ve literally never discover it before . Still , it might be good for a laugh if nothing else . Here ’s some video :

The other British show that ’s have its first U.S. airing is James May ’s Toy Stories , on BBC America at 10 PM . fundamentally , every calendar week he does something daft with toy . This week :

The effort take two calendar month to build , at which period James has it placed over a canal so that he can essay to cross over it .
mightily now — as you read this — the History Channel is having an all - day MonsterQuest endurance contest . Think of all the monsters you ’re lose out on !

Wednesday :
Chasing Mummies made for such a great choice of the daylight last week , how can we disregard it this week ? perhaps this week , they ’ll in reality beguile up to a mummy — it ’s not like they can run all that fast . ( Try the veal , I ’ll be here all calendar week . ) It ’s at 10 PM on the History Channel . Here ’s the breathless blurb for “ trap ” — literally , it ’s so breathless it has tons of extra commas :
Only a handful of people have ever had the fortune to see the Five Chambers high above the Grand Gallery of the Great Pyramid . Now , Zahi resolve to go on his final journey to the Five Chambers with the fellows in tow … together they will document the ancient graffiti on the bulwark of the Chambers , show Zahi ’s hypothesis that ancient Egyptians , not hard worker , built the Pyramids at Giza .

Thursday :
Pick of the 24-hour interval : allow ’s just pause to apprize the miracle that is new episodes of Futurama appearing regularly on our filmdom , shall we ? And then sum up to that the fact that this workweek ’s ep is plainly Bender - centric . It ’s called “ Lethal Inspection , ” and here ’s the blurb : “ Bender take that he suffers from a mortal manufacturing flaw . ” And on the face of it Fry and Scruffy will be natter the Civil War or something , judging from this sketchthat Comedy Central free a while back :

First of all , there ’s the Doctor Who time of year last , “ The Big Bang . ” Finally , all — well , at least some — of your questions will be answered ! If you determine “ The Pandorica Opens ” and see that cliffhanger , then you should n’t really need any boost to see how it all turns out . The Doctor is trapped , the universe has ended , and our Modern favorite duo has hit a chip of a rough patch . What will happen ? Here ’s a weeny cartridge clip :
And then , right afterwards , there ’s the second season premiere of Being Human . Mitchell ( Aidan Turner ) vex that vampire club is about to implode follow the death of Herrick , while George ( Russell Tovey ) seems like a changed man … and not just because of the “ werewolf ” matter . Doctor Who is on 6 postmortem examination and 9 PM and Being Human is at 7 phase modulation and 10 autopsy , at least in my area .
