Planet Earth

Is anybody watching this series on the discovery channel? And what do you think so far? I think its amazing and the shots they get are outstanding. I can't wait to see Jungles.

omg i wanted to watch it because i saw the preview commercials. when is the next one?

I saw the title of the thread and the first thing i thought of was.... I like that place! haha

no i haven't seen any but i really want to when is it on??

Yep, it's incredible! The footage is unreal. I've only seen some of it, but I have it recorded on my DVR. :)

It's amazing, I gotta see more when I get time

Watch Discovery channel(pretty sure), it's been advertised a lot.
I thought some of the shots were AWESOME. Dunno that I care that much for Sigourny Weaver as narrator.. makes it sound kind of dull even. But the shots ... whooo.. and there is a lot of pats on their own back too. "This is first time captured on film.. " "Never before seen in the wild.." I feel like saying "Yeh, I get it, it's wonderful, how about more of it, less of the gloating?"
The wide shots, the overhead stabalized shots.. just stunning. The jungle birds of paradise were just WEIRD!! I laughed pretty hard, since one looked reparkable like a big black smiley face when he was displaying.
I can't wait to see more.

They are on sunday nights (not that it even matters to me. i love you tivo :D )

Great show!!!! :carrot:

Is this the Planet Earth series broadcast on the BBC last year, also produced by the BBC. If so, i encourage you all to watch it. Not too sure about the Siguorny Weaver narration, we had Sir David Attenborough narrating the british showing, probably one of the greatest naturalists to grace this earth

Is this show where thier using the infared HD camera.......if so the picture is amazing! i can't stop watching it ......

:eek: Sigourny Weaver! WTF? why cant she just bugger off and mess up another Alien movie or something.
what happened to good ol David Attenborough??
he was narrating it when it was on tv over here last year and it was awesome

i was so psyched to watch it and got throught maybe the first five minutes until i look out the window to watch my car getting towed. i did see some of it later, but that took quite a while. anyway, what i saw was incredible, anyone should definitely watch it if they get a chance.

yeah i enjoyed it... some impressive stuff.

that has been my favorite so far.. the birds are hilarious!!!
I loved the one that did a little dance after cleaning off his 'dance floor'

It's absolutely stunning. We just got a new huge HD television screen, and I swear it looks like you could reach out and touch the animals. We're DVRing them all so I can watch them again. :-D The footage is awe-inspiring.
