just wait a few years until it's 3-d HDTV. i believe either espn or the NFL(could be both) and for sure discovery will be the first channels broadcasting it.

they shoulda got the old guy from planet earth to do the voice over not oprah, she kills it for me, however, placing it on mute and putting some chilled music in the background is really the best way to watch it

triggamike, oh I never thought about that. All this time I was watching it to learn about our planet. Probably just as rewarding without all the facts I'm sure.

Shoulda had Sean Connery do the narration... Or maybe Morgan Freeman, but I'd ask Sean Connery first...

i dont think that oprah was the best choice to narrate, but to say that her voice ruined such unbelievable documentation of nature is pretty heavy.

nick: i can hear sean connery narrating over a pride of lions now ...

originalfake, David Attenborough has been filming nature for the past fifty years, your telling me you think Oprah was a better choice for the American version? WTF does she know? Luckily theirs the BBC version of life that's narrated by David Attenborough online and I think its coming to dvd this summer

Morgan Freeman is the voice of God though.. He should come first.

do me a favor and point out the part where i said "oprah was a better choice for the american version" ............... dont put words in my mouth Evil or Very Mad

maybe it was a mistranslation of what i actually said, which was "i dont think oprah was the best choice to narrate..."

what i was disagreeing with you on is your exact words, which were "Oprah ruined it". I feel that a more appropriate narrator could have been chosen, but in no way, shape, or form is this incredible series ruined. you would be hearing the same script being read regardless of the narrator, so how is it ruined? did you and oprah have a bad breakup or something?

Oprah's voice combined with the fact that they seem to dumb it down like a middle school educational video makes me just want to mute it. Planet earth was more breathtaking and the narrator was not constantly talking. I do think the footage is incredible though. I can't imagine how many hours of throw away footage they have.
