This month on History sees a brand new series focused on the art of weapon craftsmanship, the return of a familiar figure for another adventure, a leader’s journey to his coronation, and the latest season of searching through “trash” for treasure. 

The History Hustle

Simon Yin is back, and he’s going to the streets, surprising strangers on the fly, and hanging out with the locals to find out what they know (or don’t know) about the place they call home. In History Hustle, airing Nov. 8, Sunday at 10 p.m., Simon cruises Manila and Hong Kong, quizzing homies on various factoids he’s researched all summer long. From learning about an ‘ancient Chinese secret’, to improvising a scene from one of the Philippines’ national heroes, Simon says, “This ain’t yo mama’s boring history lesson.”

Forged in Fire

The best bladed weapon-makers in the country go head-to-head in History’s exciting new series Forged in Fire, premiering Nov. 19, and airing 10 p.m. Thursdays.  Four contestants battle it out every episode, building everything from Viking axes, Samurai swords, to Indian claw daggers, and they’re doing it by hand too. Contestants compete over a series of elimination challenges, each focusing on fabricating a component of the weapon, using only the “garage” of tools provided. It’s an against-the-clock battle of wits, with competitors having to prove their craftsmanship, resourcefulness, and ingenuity to an esteemed panel of unimpeachable weapons experts.

Storage Wars Texas S4

Sultan Ibrahim Ismail has been the nominal ruler of the Malaysian state of Johor for 5 years. He’s won the hearts of his people, but hasn’t had his coronation. Premiering Nov.22, and airing Sundays at 10 p.m., History Asia: Countdown to Coronation documents the intricate preparations of the Sultan as he strives to give his people the celebration they deserve, while juggling being a leader and father.

Storage Wars: Texas stages a comeback with Season 4’s fast-paced, action-filled episodes. Witness the Lone Star state teams face off as they search neglected storage spaces for valuable memorabilia and collectibles. Who will ride off into the sunset with the biggest haul? Find out beginning Nov. 24, 9 p.m. Tuesdays.
