Hardwood
A fly-on-the-wall exploration of sons coming to terms with their father. Toronto filmmaker Hubert Davis sets out to confront his father Mel Davis about the abandonment of Mel’s first son, and the emotional and practical fall-out of his actions. Mel was born into an urban black Chicago slum, was abandoned by his father, and transcended poverty by excelling at basketball and enjoying a career as a celebrity Harlem Globetrotter for 18 years. Now, his two sons from different marriages want to excavate the family history and repair psychological and emotional damage.

Eureka! continues to be one of TVO's best-selling series ever. These humorous, information-packed programs bring "boring" physics concepts to life. Each of the 30 five-minute programs takes a simple and direct approach to the subject matter. Constant review and reinforcement make the message clear; as a result, the study of physics becomes easier and accessible — even to viewers without a solid background in the subject.
