The History Channel

Go cruising with the Pawn Stars as they check out a classic 1932 Lincoln roadster. Exceptionally maintained, will Rick and the Old Man strike gold and ride off in this vintage beauty or is the seller not firing on all cylinders? Then, the guys nearly lose their pants when a Civil War Confederate belt buckle walks into the shop. With a lifesaving bullet lodged in the front, will the guys lay down some cover fire to seize this deal or will a tough negotiation have them sounding a retreat? And later, a man comes in hoping to sell his first edition copy of Ernest Hemingway's "For Whom the Bell Tolls." Will Rick play this negotiation by the book and strike a deal or will this story have a tragic ending?

The Pawn Stars go gangster when they check out a 1937 Oldsmobile. Allegedly owned by mobster Bugsy Siegel, will the guys go to the mats over this rare luxury ride, or has this classic car seen its last drive-by? Then, a guy comes in with a genuine Olympic torch. Carried in the opening ceremonies of the 1984 summer games, will this piece burn a hole in Rick's pockets, or will a marathon negotiation make the deal flame out? And later, Rick and Chum reach for the sky when the world's smallest pistol pops into the shop. Will this tiny Austrian gun aim its way onto Rick's shelves, or fail to make a big impression?

Press play with the Pawn Stars as Chumlee checks out a gold video game cartridge from the 1990 Nintendo World Championships. Considered the "holy grail" of video game collectibles, will Chumlee drop enough coins to win it for the shop? Then, Rick and the Old Man eye a set of keys to Al Capone's jail cell. From Capone's stretch at Cook County Jail, can the guys nab this artifact, or will it evade capture? And later, the guys discover that the Old Man is a bit of a hoarder, but it's what he's hoarding that raises eyebrows.

Huddle up with the Pawn Stars when they eye a football signed by the 1967 Chicago Bears. The final season for famed coach George Halas, can the guys break down the seller's defense for the win? Then, Rick and the Old Man duel for a 1925 Gibson banjo. Will they get this piece for a song, or will negotiations hit a sour note? And later, some props from the movie "Child's Play" inspire Chumlee to make a movie. Is he bound for Hollywood stardom, or will Rick pull the plug on the project?

Noah endures God's wrath; Abraham reaches the Promised Land but still must prove his faith in God; Moses leads the Israelites out of Egypt, and his faith in God is rewarded when the Red Sea parts to allow the Israelites to escape Pharaoh's chariots; Moses delivers his final message from God--the Ten Commandments.

In this two-hour special historian and weapons expert Mike Loades will take us on a high energy, action filled, fact rich rampage through the medieval world. Along the way Mike will separate myth from reality and find out what it was really like to live, work, and fight through this extraordinary time.

It began like the common cold. Then fever, baseball-sized black swellings on the neck, coughing of blood. Few lived more than two days. The year--1347. It was history's worst biological disaster and almost half of Europe's population died within three years. Visit the plague ships' rat-infested holds, witness the terror that swept through the towns, and walk with the religious flagellants. Follow a princess as she travels into the center of the plague, a doctor who struggles to understand what is happening, and a Jewish merchant caught up in violent attacks. Hear the actual words of the victims, taken from diaries and journals. From the Pope's palace to the humble huts of medieval peasants, watch as people live and die in the unforgiving grip of fear and death, and wonder how we would act if such a terrible event happened today.

The Roman Empire, rotten to the core by the fifth century, lay open to barbarian warriors. Europe was beset by famine, plague, persecutions, and a state of war that was so persistent it was only rarely interrupted by peace. These centuries are remembered today as the Dark Ages. Beneath this cloak of darkness were people like Charlemagne, St. Benedict and the Empress Theodora who helped to bridge the gap of civilization between Rome and the Renaissance. Ultimately, these points of light would illuminate the darkness, and Western Europe would rise from the Dark Ages to a level of cultural and political power unseen for a thousand years.

The Pawn Stars are presented with a mysterious pocket-sized sundial believed to be from the 16th Century...complete with a concealed secret inside. Will the gang be able to shine a light on this puzzling piece of history, or will the seller darken their day by shooting for the moon? Rick and the Old Man have a chance to buy a photo album of famed union organizer Jimmy Hoffa. Will they wheel up a deal for this item, or will it be sent back to be hidden and buried away for ever? Then later Corey and Chumlee set their sights on a rifle sharpshooting arcade game from the 60's. Will Corey target a good price for this vintage game, or will his plan backfire?

The Pawn Stars fasten their seat belts when a 2003 Lamborghini Murcielago speeds into the shop. Originally purchased for $400,000, will Corey keep the negotiation on track, or is this 200 mile-an-hour super car more than he can handle? Then, Rick is presented with a true one of a kind, when a guy brings in a set of Saddam Hussein's fingerprints. Taken in Baghdad by the FBI, will Rick try to capture this rare piece at all costs, or will he play this one by the book? And later, Rick and Corey check out a sterling silver Tiffany Walkman originally owned by a member of the rock band "The Who." Will the guys try to win this one for a song, or is this antiquated device worth its weight in silver?

Get your kicks with the Pawn Stars as Rick and Chumlee check out a massive collection of Nike shoes. With an asking price of $1 million, is this deal a slam dunk or an air ball? Then, an Arnold & Son longitude watch finds its way into the shop. Used for navigation on ships since the 1700's, will Rick offer a boatload for this rare timepiece? And later, Corey and Chumlee eye a vintage handcuff collection. Featuring some of the most painful, and illegal, restraint devices ever made, do the guys try to lock this deal up, or does something rub them the wrong way.

We find out what goes on in Adam's head as he takes control of the show and gets to do whatever he wants. First he tries to teach Tanner and Rut how to play football--with an automotive twist. Then he reveals his own concept car designed to protect you against the worst things on the road--other drivers. Finally, he gets behind the wheel of the legendary Ford GT40 and puts a bizarre twist on the classic Le Mans race where Ford beat Ferrari, with an unsuspecting Rutledge at the wheel of the Ferrari.

The incredible tale of how Gutzon Borglum created the world's largest sculpture by carving the faces of four US presidents (George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln) into the Black Hills of South Dakota. The four figures carved in stone pay tribute to the first 150 years of American history. The hour chronicles the "swiveled pointer" that Borglum put in each president's "head", and how workmen hung like spiders 6,000 feet above the ground to blast away 450,000 tons of rock.
