 I had the pleasure of watching these DVDs on BluRay.  Unbelievable.  The title of the series really sums it  up -- it takes you on a journey to almost every height and depth and climate on earth, and familiarizes you with so many amazing plant and animal species.  The footage is colorful and just magnificent.  Don't mean to speak in superlatives, but it's really very impressive.  An incredible, unparalled work that would be an amazing gift to give anyone.

It's very entertaining because so many of the scenes they show (like a slo-mo capture of a Great White attacking a seal) is just awe-inspiring.  Plus, it's educational.  Maybe more people watching it would encourage people to be more eco-conscious to preserve our precious planet.

We put this on the tivo.  It would have been SO MUCH BETTER If we had a nicer tv... *cough*... but it was breath-taking and amazing to watch.  I was considering getting it on dvd, but the price is even more staggering.  Maybe we'll have to rent it again sometime soon.  I hope if we get a nicer television set we'll watch this again.  Or we can watch it on my parents' HDTV. :)

I love everything about this video set.  I have the original BBC version, and am partial to the British narrator.  I recommend that everyone watch this at least once, it is a wonderful way to see the wonders of the planet. 

I got Planet Earth on Netflix and it was absolutely awesome.  I had to rent every part of the series because they were just so great.  The visuals were stunning, and they showed a lot of cool animals and provided a lot of fascinating information.  Even the clips at the end showing how they managed to film some of the animals was really interesting.  Just an awesome series of documentaries - I can't say enough about it.
