A rare, stunning look at the beautiful chaos that is our home planet. Never before captured images of the rain forest floor, the deep sea, the split second a shark captures a seal, slowed down from 1 second to 45...more dramatic and imaginative than any movie could hope to be. ($79.95 at the Discovery Channel Store) UPDATE: Someone got this for me for my birthday. Thank you so much!

I am completely fascinated by this series. What better way to celebrate Earth Day than marveling at the wonders, both animal and geography, that surround us. This is some of the best cinematography I have ever seen. I can watch this over and over again because each and every image is so beautiful. Watching this I have learned about unique animals and places I never knew existed. I have recommended this to everyone I know and I recommend it to you, too!

Dad's will drool over this boxed DVD set. Not just because they love the discovery & history channels but because it will be magnificent on their HDTV's. Trust me when I say this will be a hit.

i love planet earth. and yes, even with the blasphemous narration by sigourney weaver. and if you have any interest in nature or are a fan of ridiculously awesome footage, then you will too. but come on people, why change something so perfect? it's just not right, DAVID ATTENBOROUGH IS THE SHIT, go for the original, on blu-ray if possible, and for ideal viewing, on a 52 inch with high contrast ratio.

It's interesting...when you aren't forced to learn or study something, how much you want to learn about things. Hence, the popularity of the Discovery and History channels. Oprah deemed this as one of her favorite things and I diddo that. Also a great gift idea!

Simply gorgeous, unmatched photography, unlike most other "nature" video. You really can't help being inspired to do something to protect this beauty.

I don't understand the difference between the two PE editions, the narration by Weaver and Attenboroug. Seems like they are different. Someone please enlighten me. Thanks, Sher

I want to see this :) I also love Sigourney Weaver, so that's an added bonus.
Excuse me, but Ms. Weaver's natural and engaging narration is much more inviting and comfortable than David Attenborough's voice has EVER been. What really disappoints me is that the DVD and BD producers couldn't bring the BBC and Discovery productions together and LET THE VIEWER DECIDE who they want narrating this exquisite series. Particularly with the memory capacity of Blu-Ray discs, that SHOULD HAVE been a 'no-brainer'!!! SHAME ON YOU ALL, VIDEO PRODUCERS!
As beautiful and engaging as the videos are, they are enhanced immeasurably by Sigourney Weaver's narration. If you are old enough, you might agree that her performance is right up there with such vocal luminaries as Winston Hibler (the Disney nature shows of the 50s) and Alexander Scourby. Also the late, great George Paige.
