Heroes of Cosplay:

Yes, that’s right, costume competitions for adults. For those that don’t know, cosplay is the abbreviation of “costume play.” The person participating in Cosplay tries to become the character, from voice to mannerisms to hair to eye color and dress. Cosplay documents some of the best cosplayers and their competitions at comic conventions. From the creation of the costumes to the competitions, the show covers it all. At the competitions, cosplayers are judged on quality of construction and how well they convey the character. Winning means a cash prize and gaining status in the cosplay world.

Alaskan Women Looking for Love: 

“We’re tired of dating old bearded fisherman,” six women from Kodiak, Alaska, cry in desperation. These six women were selected to leave the last frontier for Miami in hopes of finding love. All the girls are super quirky and definitely not from the lower 48. Watching six middle aged women attempt to pick up Miami men is highly entertaining – and a bit sad. However, the women appear somewhat normal and hard not to love. For a show that sounds possibly excruciating to watch, it’s not half bad. Watching them venture into the real world of bikinis and waxing is so endearing that you have to love each of them for trying so hard to find love.

Doomsday Castle:

This show documents the life of Brenton Bruns and his children preparing for doomsday. But they don’t just stockpile canned goods and guns. The Bruns family built a castle in the South Carolina mountains in order to protect themselves. According to Bruns, the world will be experiencing an apocalypse because of the failure of the electromagnetic grid. This will cause the world to revert back to the dark ages. The Bruns children, all adults and self-proclaimed “doomsday preppers,” put up with their dad’s attempts to “prepare” them: fake tear gassing, lectures about fertility and blowing up tree stumps with dynamite. He actually brought a fertility expert to talk to his daughters about pregnancy and birth without modern medicine. At first glance, this all seems pretty legitimate, then you realize the girls couldn’t wear heeled boots and Hollister jeans if they really live like they say they do.
