Discovery & BBC present PLANET EARTH
A landmark 11-part high-definition television event by the Discovery Channel and BBC Video that captures life on earth like never before. Airs on consecutive Sundays from March 25 through April 22, 2007 on Discovery Channel and in high definition on Discovery HD Theater.
PLANET EARTH was created by the team behind the award-winning natural history series BLUE PLANET, with an unprecedented production budget of $25 million. Sigourney Weaver narrates the series which took more than five years to create.
"PLANET EARTH is natural history for the 21st century," says Discovery Channel Executive Vice President and General Manager Jane Root. "The sheer scope of the locations and brilliant clarity of the images, captured using revolutionary film techniques, will immerse viewers into a majestic world that only Discovery Channel can deliver."
The preview clip I saw showed a starving pack of 30 African lions hunt and kill an elephant at night ~ sent chills through my body. The series also raises important environmental issues and what the future may hold.
