I'm a bit disappointed with it because they cram so many diverse things into each episode that overall it leaves more to be desired. On that note I wished I would have remembered that their was a jungle episode on this evening..probably stay up late to see that one.

It's a groundbreaking series that uses cutting edge technology to deliver never before seen images of our planet.

I've seen all of them so far, and they are each amazing in their own right.

It's a family show, they're not going to show the money shots. If you think about it, hardly any animal shows show the actual death of the animal. They always cut straight from the animal falling down to being half-eaten. I'd have to assume because the 10 seconds or so where the animal dies horribly screaming and wailing after getting its throat torn out is a little too rough for most viewers to want to see.

If people can't accept the reality of nature they have no place existing on the Earth.
