Summary: Best X-mas gift in 35 years!
Comment: My husband is a huge nature documentary afficionado. Last Christmas I got him the "Planet Earth" DVD set which he loved. This year I got him "Blue Planet" set which he thought was even better. We've watched it together and found never a dull momment, fascinating shots of deep sea creatures or coral spawning. Attenborough is a superb narrator and the special features are well worth a look. Only caveat is that the last DVD in the set is just a hodge podge of other, inferior, nature documentaties.

Summary: One of the top BBC nature productions
Comment: This is a sensational documentary of life in the sea. Certainly the best I've seen in a long time. Well organized and incredible photography.
I use parts of it in a class on oceanography to demonstrate life in the ocean in a way that is impossible to describe in a lecture.
Spellbinding and good for all ages.

Summary: Blue Planet..Awesome and uplifting
Comment: I hesitated for a long time before making this purchase...now I know I should have bought this instead of something else. I can ignore the 'facts' about the age of the corals etc...this documentary is truly inspiring, uplifting and eye-opening. Sea creatures I never thought possible, amusing mating styles, and much more...and the narrator is excellent. Relaxing end of day edutainment for me...I'll be watching these over and over again. Thanks BBC.

Summary: Beautiful but preachy
Comment: The potential of this beautifully filmed show is seriously tarnished by the preachy 'humans suck' message. I get enough of this in my daily life. I'd rather not have it fed to me in every single movie, TV show, etc... that I watch. I watch these things to get away from reality for a few minutes...
