For all those night owls who like seeing how amazing this planet is.

Great series.

Planet Earth in HD is drool-worthy.

The Pacific ones are truly amazing. To see how this ocean food chain cycles is especially spectular during the feeding frenzies.
Of course the floods of Africa was fantastic as well.

Just to think, we as a species have learned so much on the patterns of this planet, yet we are hell bent on destroying good portions of it. Thats why I love these programs, they remind me of just how fragile these cyclical systems are.

Great series, Great documentary's, Great learning.

Best Nature Series Ever Done.

Actually, probably the best quality I have ever seen out of anything. Nature is truly amazing. It is truly fucking amazing all of the little intricacies environment and sex have placed into evolution.

If you get the chance, get ahold of Wild Pacific narrated by Mike Rowe.

In some aspects, I like that series even more than planet earth, as it seems to have a logical order and talks about the formation of the land and the ensuing civilization, beginning with plants that can grow right on solid rock formed by volcanos.

Breathtaking photography, and Mike Rowe's narration is just awesome. I consider him to be the Rick Jeanerette of narrating.

Great, great series.

My favorite documentary ever. I can't wait for their new one, Life, to come out next year. Only downside with that one is it's going to be narrated by Oprah.

WHAT?! :lol: :lol: :lol:

In context, it looks like you were making a joke, but I know that you were being serious. Oh goodness.

I cannot stand Oprah. The woman has no tact whatsoever, much less compassion.
