ETV's film "Raging Water" explores the effects of the historic "1, 000-year flood" on South Carolina. As a potential rain event turns into a catastrophe, South Carolina is faced with overwhelming rainfall, 19 deaths, the breach of manmade structures, the failure of water systems, and floodwaters that swept into an already engorged river system. The water traveled downstream through nearly half the state, where floodwaters caused agricultural devastation and the destruction of entire neighborhoods including Clarendon, Berkeley, Charleston, Georgetown and Horry counties. Boat and helicopter rescues, compromised roadways, threatened archeological sites, damage to the famed Cypress Gardens, loss of housing, and the threat of mold become subjects of the story, as do "lessons learned" and recovery efforts faced by the city of Nashville after their similar 2010 flood. "Raging Water" is by Emmy Award winner Mark Adams. His previous documentaries for ETV include The Vanishing Generation, Over Here, A Look Back at NatureScene, Carolina Caught, and Space Heroes.
The 130 programs are designed to air daily, Monday through Friday. The 15- minute segments are frequently coupled together to fill a 30- minute time slot at the option of local programmers. The first three shows demonstrate and explain three to four new postures or exercises per show. The last two shows serve as review so the viewer has a chance to make certain they followed and understood correctly. In addition, if the viewer missed a show, the Thursday and Friday review days bring them up-to-date. At the onset, the program is strictly teaching the "building blocks" of yoga exercise. As the series progresses, the work becomes more demanding.
