CourtTV (TruTV) has a new series starting Dec 25 called "Tiger
Team". They will air the first two episodes back-to-back at 11 pm
and 11:30 pm ET.

It follows a group of penetration testers hired to test the
security of organizations through social engineering,
wired/wireless penetration testing, and physically defeating
security mechanisms (lock picking, dumpster diving, going through
air vents/windows). They attempt all of this while avoiding
organizations' defenses (and local law enforcement). Think "To
Catch a Thief", but better.

They don't have an official website yet, but hopefully that will
change soon. For now, there is a digg thread started here (feel
free to digg it to increase this show's exposure):

They also did a one-hour radio interview and Q&A call-in. They
start talking about the pilot episode around the 16:50 mark. It is
available here (commercial-free):
