Just giving you guys a heads up since i've personally been waiting a couple months for this series, but the Discovery Channel DocumentaryPlanet Earth starts tonight at 7pm central.

It's an 11 part series that covers all manners of species in all manners of habitats around the globe. It looks stunning, and i've heard nothing but cult-like praise about the quality.

It looks amazing. Since all I do now is watch the Discovery Channel lately I keep seeing commercials for it. I might flip to it during the Simpson's commercial breaks.

A lot of that stuff just had my jaw on the floor and I got a bunch of laughs out of it as well [the baboons walking upright in the water looked like clumsy people]. Seeing nature in such a grand scope made me reflect a lot on life in general and how its all so connected and I wasn't even high like some people [although I could imagine that being the [censored]].

I really really wish I was at home with my HDTV instead of at college. Also, those commercials were killing me, soooo many it hurt after awhile. Overall, fantastic though. I can not wait until the DVDs come out.

you have to assume that the people at National Geographic are either really excited or really jealous of this series.
