Die Erde bei Nacht

For those reviewers who wrote this series is not innovative or doesn't show any new perspectives. I'm pretty sure, they saw this on a classic LCD screen. On an OLED the visuals are breathtaking. The perfectly captured night shots showed me totally new perspectives on wildlife. The mixture of darkness with colorful "highlights" makes this a unique piece of art. Do yourself a favor, your next TV should be an OLED. Then watch this series again and get the proof that your money is well invested.

The photography is 10 out of 10. The narrative is excellent. What ruins this series is the melodramatic voice of the narrator. She's incredibly distracting and annoying.

The documentary itself is great, fantastic camera work and decent background information throughout.

However they do shine lighting in many scenes despite their claim to the contrary.

What bothered me was the dramatic female narrator and her over the top facts which make it unnatural to the ear.

I watched one episode, it was better than I expected. Well, it is not National Geographic's or BBC's. But it is deserves watching and thumps up. Don't compare the young narrator to Attenborough's because in my opinion he is out of comparison in this field (again, it is my own opinion).

The visuals are gorgeous. I was perennially covered in goosebumps and streaming tears over the beauty, the fragility, the wonder of it all. BUT that required an extreme exercise in blocking out the narrator, in fact several times I muted the TV and played classical music instead. She nearly put me into a depression bordering on coma. She sounds like a severely depressed robot even during delightful or high action scenes. She could not possibly drone on more uninterestingly if that had been her plan. In short, gorgeous nature show ruined by the narrator. Can't imagine who she auditioned for that thought she was even remotely a good choice, much less the "winner" for the job. As you can see, this review barely mentions the beautiful visuals and carries on all about the narrator... THAT'S HOW BAD SHE IS.
