Two New CNN Original Series Debut, Sunday, March 1st

Two new CNN Original Series will premiere Sunday, March 1st with Finding Jesus: Faith, Fact, Forgery (produced by Nutopia) airing at 9pm ET/PT, followed by the The Wonder List with Bill Weir at 10 pm ET/PT (produced by CNN).

Loved and worshipped by billions, Jesus of Nazareth is, unquestionably, the most famous person of the last 2,000 years. His influence on culture, politics, education and literature continues to this day. But he left no physical trace. Or did he? That's the question at the forefront of Finding Jesus: Faith, Fact, Forgery. The series features the latest scientific and archaeological research along with a first-class panel of contributors who will provide expert commentary and investigate the authenticity of six objects which could shed new light on Jesus.

The series will air across six, one hour episodes, culminating on Easter Sunday.

In The Wonder List with Bill Weir, storyteller Bill Weir and renowned filmmaker Philip Bloom go on a quest to tell the untold stories of extraordinary people, places, cultures and creatures that are at a crossroads.

Across eight, one hour episodes, Weir and Bloom will take viewers to Vanuatu; the Galapagos Islands; Ikaria, Greece; the Taj Mahal in India; the Alps; the Dead Sea; the Everglades and Venice. While in these visually stunning locations, captured by Bloom's unparalleled cinematography, Weir explores the forces of change that effect so many lives, and discovers what can be done to save them.

Finding Jesus: Faith, Fact, Forgery and The Wonder List with Bill Weir join CNN's successful Original Series lineup that includes This is Life with Lisa Ling, Somebody's Gotta Do It with Mike Rowe, The Hunt with John Walsh, Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown and Inside Man with Morgan Spurlock among others. 2015 will also see the premiere of the new Original Series High Profits and The Seventies.
