Planet Earth

Now usually I don't talk about non-fiction, reality is after all so very dreary, but I'll make an exception with this documentary showing right now on Danish television. The documentary is Planet Earth, made by BBC of course. In these times, when Danish TV seems mainly to be about programs that humiliate, degrade and stupefy, it's so very nice to see that's it's actually possible to learn from watching TV. And while learning about nature and animals, in the most beautiful and impossibly amazing shots you ever knew, you also experience a wide range of emotions from fear and repulsion to comedy and awe by this real-life drama. The series is about halfway, but if you get hooked you can always by the DVD's pretty cheaply, or even get them in glorious Blu-Ray which I plan. Another advantage of the DVD/Blu-Ray's, besides being in much better quality than TV, is that they are narrated by Sir David Attenborough himself.
