Nos océans

I do not agree with the criticism that Obama's narration is boring. I loved his narration. The knowledge of the production is amazing and the photography is astounding. In addition I truly enjoyed the music. I would highly recommend this series. My only criticism is the anthropomorphic references.

My daughter and I watched this together and looked up some oceanic details while watching. We only watched one or two at a time but still an enjoyable series.

I do not have a lot more to say except that I did learn a lot and appreciate our oceans and the amazing creatures who live there even more so than before.

Visually is stunning and a great documentary to watch but I am just not able to like the narration from Barack Obama.... I just doesn't sound exciting at all... More like someone reading the newspaper and trying to make an effort to make it exciting but it simply isn't. I think it was a bad choice even though the name stand out.

English is not my native language so I switched to German and thank God the voice is exciting and nice to listen to. In German 10/10 but in English I just can't listen to the voice without feeling a bit disappointed considering that there are so many great "voices " out there for documentaries , so a 7/10.

The filming, the visuals and the amazing animals is all A+, but the lack of dramatic and "pull you in" narration is something to be desired. Someone with a more commanding and attention grabbing voice is needed to make this an all around outstanding series. The current narration is quite boring, but the visual excellence will keep you watching.... I definitely recommend watching, it is really good. Unfortunately, the narration is a 2 star attempt and really drives home how much Attenbrough is missed. Maybe they can somehow get Morgan Freeman to do a new voice narration and bring this from a 6 star production to a 10 star docuseries..

I love nature documentaries and was so looking forward to this series. Although the imagery is stunning, the narration was so painful and hard to get through. Obama constantly pauses and his cadence is just so slow and even sometimes sounds "goofy" for a lack of a better word. I would have given anything for Attenborough or Freeman to have narrated. In fact, in order for me to make it tolerable, I changed the audio to a Spanish speaking narrator with English subtitles and continued the series. Much better this way.

Other than that, the footage is fantastic and wonderfully educational which I really appreciate.

The visuals are stunning, many never seen before. I laud Obama for his support and voiceover. Even more appreciation goes to the people who designed these underwater equipments. Lastly, the highest level of appreciation for people on the ground. The overall effort and outcome is superhuman, I'm amazed sitting at home and watching it on netflix as to how this coverage is humanly possible, special appreciation to the southern ocean episode. A must watch for everyone, to induce a sense of self righteousness to preserve our oceans & environment and keep it clean. Earth is too magnificent to destroy for temporary joy/ gains.
