In 'Planet Earth' series, TV achieves its potential
3 of 3 found this helpful Simply put, the BBC's "Planet Earth" series (aired in the U.S. on the Discovery Channel) is one of the two best things ever produced for TV. The other is Ken Burns's epic "Civil War" series for PBS. And Planet Earth may have the edge because, unlike "The Civil War," it's entirely in glorious color and widescreen format.
Years in the making, Planet Earth is an astounding feat of film-making by an outrageously dedicated (make that obsessed) group of film professionals who combine the latest in film technology (super high-speed, time-lapse, long telephoto lenses, etc.) with unimaginable patience and an acrobats dexterity to capture fascinating and never-before-seen vignettes of life in the natural world, from pole to pole, from seemingly lifeless desert to teeming rain forest, and from ocean bottom to the tops of our highest mountain ranges. Simply stunning!
No one person, no matter how intrepid or widely traveled, has ever seen in person one-tenth of the spectacular snippets of life Planet Earth treats us to in our very own living rooms. It is TV at its finest.
