We saw one episode of this BBC produced series on the Discovery channel several months ago and we were sold. This series is a beautifully depicted narration on the wonderful planet we call home. The documentary is filmed almost exclusively in High Definition and the cinematography is simply stunning in Blu-ray.
We are using a 1080p 120Hz Toshiba Regza as our reference and the picture quality is at times breathtaking. The producers went to great lengths to capture amazing images of the entire planet and just watching the scenery alone is worth the price of this set. There is one shot taken as they flew over Victoria falls that almost makes you feel like you are soaring over the falls on your own personal set of wings.
While the Discovery Channel series is narrated by Sigourney Weaver and the Disney edited version is done by James Earl Jones; this original series is narrated by David Attenborough with the BBC and he is by far the best of the three. The only issues I had with the physical Blu-ray discs is that Mr. Attenborough's voice is slightly hard to hear over the higher volume musical scores and scenery sounds.
This set comes in a nice box for display and has 4 discs inside. The length is approximately 550 minutes and is divided into 50 minute themed segments.
I should also note that there are a few references (maybe 4 or 5) to evolution and global warming for those of you who may have issues with these types of views. However, the focus is not on politics or religion, rather the main focus is on our amazing planet and I do not believe the commentaries would be offensive to anyone who is solid in their own beliefs. In my opinion the stunning imagery reinforces the ideas of creation by design and the entire series would be an excellent educational resource for any type of school or home.
The wonder and awesomeness of this planet really shines in this series and I highly recommend it.

Planet Earth has a lot of amazing images displaying beautiful parts of this world. It is incredible how vast, beautiful, intricate and varied the creatures and landscapes of our planet are. The thing that disturbed me about the video series is its unscientific talk of millions of years and the possible origin of places and species without any conclusive scientific evidence. The vastness, beauty, intricate and varied nature of this world's creatures and habitat are a powerful witness to an Awesome Creator God. I missed the praise of the Creator of the Universe in this series. For God alone is worthy to receive all honour and praise.

Love the series but did not like the narration by Sigourney Weaver for the U.S. version. Got a chance to see the BBC version and loved the narration by Sir David Attenborough. Anyone who has a Bluray player has got to get this.
