What is on Discovery+? Channels, Shows, and Movies

Deadliest Catch | Discovery Channel | Extreme Jobs, Adventure & Exploration

How can Deadliest Catch already be on its 19th season? Actually, how can I ask that? The show delivers real human drama and cheek-clenching suspense every season. Will the boat captains, grizzled veteran fishermen and greenhornes (noobs) be rewarded for risking their lives so we can dunk crab legs in butter sauce? Will someone die (perish the thought)? Will we lose a ship altogether? Will a boat encounter rogue Russian ships or—please oh please—a real live sea monster? We’re riveted. Please pass the popcorn and Dramamine.

Van Go | Magnolia Network | Automotive, Home

In Magnolia Network series Van Go, Austin-based van-dweller Brett Lewis turns vanilla vans into mobile tiny homes, each with its own function and style. It’s like Pimp My Ride for millennials, but the idea isn’t to flex your in-dash PS5 (or some such nonsense)—it’s to live, and even work, minimally. So Lewis creates liveable mobile bike shops, food trucks, recording studios, surf shops, and more for his clients—always with stellar results.

Mythbusters is one of the most educational and entertaining shows ever, airing from 2003–2016 on Discovery Channel (with co-hosts Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman) and 2017–2018 on the Science Channel (with Jon Lung and Brian Louden hosting). Discovery+ has the entire run of the series, so you can watch or rewatch classic episodes like “Alcatraz Escape,” “Brown Note,” “Exploding Toilet,” and “MacGyver Myths.” But remember: “Don’t try what you’re about to see at home.”

Mexican Made Easy | Food Network | Cooking, Food

When it comes to learning how to make drool-worthy Mexican dishes, we bow to Marcela Valladolid and her comal. You’ll find all five seasons (58 episodes) of Chef Marcela’s series on the Food Network hub of Discovery+, but just one 21-minute episode will inspire you to make—and devour—every last dish, mixed drink, mole, and salsa she features. And it’s not all Mexican dishes; Valladolid even serves up mind-blowing Mexican versions of American classics, like the Burger al Pastor. ¡Delicioso!

How It’s Made | Science Channel | Science & Technology

Have you ever wondered how “they” make absinthe, condoms, decorative sombreros, Fruity Pebbles, potato salad, Pringles, recycled skateboard guitars, turntables, or whips? Well, wonder no more. There are 24 seasons—hundreds of episodes—of this popular Canadian series on Discovery+. By the time you’ve seen them all, you’ll no longer be curious about how anything is made. And that’s when you pivot to How The Universe Works (also on the Science Channel).

Too Cute | Animal Planet | Nature & Animals

Humans’ appetite for adorable animals is easily explained: they’re delicious. Just kidding, folks—we wouldn’t dream of eating the sweet little floofs from Too Cute. But we definitely recommend gobbling up all six seasons of this irresistible Animal Planet series. If you’re weary from world events, there’s no better balm than watching teeny-tiny kitties, goats, pups, and other animals as they enter and learn about the world.

This Came Out of Me | Discovery Life | Medical

Yes, the title makes you want to turn and run—but you just . . . can’t. I mean, this is a show where doctors remove foreign objects (or pus) from personal places. We shouldn’t look, but we must because any of these conditions and injuries, no matter how unusual, could befall any of us at any time. So binge-watching This Came Out of Me falls under research and morbid curiosity. But there’s only one season because none of the foreign objects were haunted.

Outrageous 911 | TLC | True Crime

Outrageous 911 explores the whimsical side of calling emergency services. In reenactments based on real 911 calls, four-year-olds report a Nana for withholding ice cream, drunk drivers turn themselves in, dead deer wake up in someone’s backseat, and a cop overdoses on pot brownies. With so many heavy reality shows highlighting the true trauma behind 911 emergency calls, it’s refreshing to watch one that leaves us laughing.
