Am amazing series will worth watching. Can't stress enough how well produced this is. Many thanks for giving us this unique look into the animal kingdom. This is visually stunning. Still in awe how they were able to capture such intimate moments. The narration is one of the best I've heard. Basset's soothing voice leads you through this captivating journey. I hardly ever write reviews but I felt compelled to give credit where it is due. Haven't been able to stop watching. It's always nice to watch a documentary that teaches you so many new things about these remarkable creatures. I see many awards in the horizon.
It's an all female produced, edited, and narrated documentary that spotlights female animals which I can only assume provoked the 1 star reviews. How sad that such an amazing piece of work is overlooked due to sexism. The cinematography is thrilling. Capturing these clips takes extreme talent and experience and we see that here, but what I absolutely loved is the soundtrack and editing. It worked so well with the shots and I have rewatched the end of the hyena episode over and over. I've never had a documentary evoke the emotion this series made me feel. Angela Basset is a force of nature and her narration seals the deal for me.
Some seriously amazing cinematography and insanely brutal moments captured. They don't hold back on how cruel nature is and how animals can be to one another.
But the music ruins the show. That's not an exaggeration. Who is their target demographic here? It's as if they were trying to appeal to the urban TikTok generation, but it doesn't work at all. Whoever supervised the music should be fired. It's that bad, and for that reason alone I cannot recommend this show.
The story-telling of a few episodes also seemed forced, particularly the insect episode. Try an episode to see if you like it, the Lions and Elephant episodes are good. But you'll probably hate the music and it ruins the whole vibe.
MY RATING:
5: AVERAGE- Not bad, not good. Overall, it is probably forgettable. A few aspects kept me engaged enough to finish, but my attention likely drifted throughout. I wouldn't necessarily dissuade people from watching it, but also cannot recommend it. Wish I had watched something else instead.

Do not miss this! The powerful voice of the narrator, the filmography, the amazing soundtrack and all the trivia learned are great! Watched it all in one day and I need more, can't wait for the next documentary narrated by this incredible woman!
The world needs more inspiring people like the ones we learned about from this series. There are still people who appreciate and love nature just how it should be. And the fact that we can learn from them...thank you for your hard work!
Please, National Geographic, make more documentaries like this one, full of powerful stories and music so you can feel like reading a great story.

The main problem of this documentary serial is the narrator, whose voice is way to low, vague and spiritless without energy. Even by increasing the volume, her low tiresome voice still became so difficult to catch sometimes. To tell the stories about the queens in the wild animal kingdoms, you need to use clear, strong and energetic voice to deliver the powerful, sometimes predictable, sometimes not quite predictable situations when those queens of the different species become weak and old and inevitably ousted by the young, upcoming and more vicious ones who come to take over and become the new queens. Yet this weak narrator's voice simply failed to deliver such wild animals' world.
The other weakness of this documentary is the random editing that jumped around. Often when we just got into that specific animal's world, it suddenly cut it short and began to tell another animal's stuff. Besides, all the contents of this documentary are already well-known and old information that we don't really want to renew or relearn. This is a very boring fact finding documentary that we could do without, especially with such terrible choice of a weal, seamless female voice just because the documentary needs to tell, that in animal kingdoms, the female ones usually reign over the males and the other females. Sounds more like a feminist's production, don't you think?
I could only watched the first episode and decided to quit in the middle.
