    I watched this in 5th grade and Did NOT like it. On the last Friday of the year, I had to read my big Nate book out in the hall (that was before I hated big Nate) and the show overall is stupid. The narrator speaks like an idiot. Not a very good documentary. It’s not a children’s doc. I can let my little cousins watch this. It’ll give them nightmares. And a lot of ugly images, made me throw up. This documentary has a lot of frightening scenes and ugly images. Inappropriate for all ages. Dear parents, don’t let your kids watch this. It’s not suitable for children.

    The imagery is very nice but I finish an episode wondering what I learned. Seems to have a repetitive theme of look at the nice place... here are animals killing each other there... here is another nice place and more animals killing each other.
  • Attenborough is the best!

    Its crazy how hard it is to find good documentaries on itunes but this is worth purchasing to watch over and over. Excelent value. Also, cant wait for Planet Earth II to come out, hope they dont make us wait too long and especially hope they continue to give us the origional version with David Attenborough, no watered down version made for the US market!
  • Must watch

    Nature & documentary lovers this is a must watch. Attenborough is simply the best and one of a kind.
  • No Sigourney Weaver! :(

    Such an breathtaking serious, but I wish they had the US Discovery Channel Edition narrated by Sigourney Weaver. I don’t like this guys voice.

    Best documentary ever! It can get a little slow at times, but is still incredible. I didn't want to at first, but, even though it's expensive, the HD version is beautiful, and I would recommend getting it. And for those of you asking, the narrator is David Attenborough, the original narrator. I would much rather have him than Sigourney Weaver.
  • Best documentary ever, but...

    The HD version looks absolutely terrible on a 60" LCD TV. Looks terrible on a 27" iMac, for that matter. What gives?
  • Great for Small Kids
