Rob Lowe is a man of many talents: He’s devilishly handsome, a member of the Brat Pack, and a six-time Golden Globe nominee for work including Thursday’s Child, The West Wing and, more recently, The Grinder. But did you know that the celebrated actor is also a paranormal junkie?

Rob’s curiosity for the unexplained began during his childhood, and in A&E’s new reality series The Lowe Files (Wednesdays beginning Aug. 2 at 10pm ET/PT), Lowe and his sons Matthew and John Owen travel around the country and explore infamous unsolved mysteries. In each episode, the Lowes investigate a spooky legend and, after meeting with top experts and conducting scientific experiments, debate the validity of the story.

A few of the missions into the unexplained include: exploring an alien base located 2,000 feet underwater off the coast of Malibu; working with a renowned shaman at an abandoned boys reformatory; and training with a top-secret government operative in methods used for identifying images taken from great distances. And Rob is OK if he and his sons can’t prove the unexplained — his real goal is to spend time with his beloved boys.

There’s an old sheriff in town, and his name is Walt Longmire.

Set on the rugged, unforgiving Wyoming frontier, Longmire follows the middle-aged, recently widowed sheriff of Absaroka County as he seeks to work through his pain and revitalize his life and career. Helping him along are a big-city transplant deputy, Vic (Katee Sackhoff), and his longtime friend Henry Standing Bear […]
