life on earth November 24, 2002

This has to be the most comprehensive visual aid to the evolution of life on earth. This will prove an invaluable aid to students of the biological sciences and to avid amateurs alike. This definitive series is ground breaking in its excellent photography and portrayal of of the species concept. A must for all natural history enthusiasts

What can i say, they no longer make tv programmes like this ... The best of all (IMHO) of BBC + david attenboroughs natural history programmes (which is to say the best in the world). I first saw it when it came out and was spellbound, it sparked an interest in nature/biology that has lasted with me until this day ... my degree was in biology. Buy this, watch it, show it your children ... the like of it will never be seen again.
This show set the standard for future documentaries January 3, 2001

Being "young" myself, born in 1973, I was only 6 when the Life On Earth series was being aired. However, I attribute, at least partially, my lifelong desire to learn more about the natural world to this show. I still remember the feeling of being immersed in whatever environment that David Attenborough was describing. The incredible attention to detail and the most amazing motion photography set this series, in my mind, at the forefront of natural documentaries. Quite possibly some of the scenes in this series no longer exist after 30 years of 'progress'.
