Underdogs

Where is the line we can't cross? Right there? Can I put my baby toe over it? No? How about my overgrown big toenail??

And that's all you need to know LOLLLLL Hilarious, sassy, maybe not for your kids and all you expected from a nature series narrated by Deadpool. Everything I'd hoped...my cheeks hurt! :-)

Also, I actually learned about some creatures if never heard of in all the other David Attenborough shows I've ever watched. Enjoyed every episode, all the jokes, and believe it or not it is filmed REALLY well!

This show was awesome, I'd totally recommend it to the 13+ nature show enthusiast!

Let me start off by saying I am a HUGE fan of nature documentaries. Some are better than others ( hello David and Bertie) but all serve an incredibly important purpose - transporting us to different ecosystems and their inhabitants so we may have a better understanding of how crucial their role is in the grand scheme of life on this planet. Having said that, some of these documentaries can be very dry, academic and downright depressing. But not Underdogs. Just seconds into the intro I began laughing out loud. It's audacious, hilarious AND informative. PLEASE Ryan, create more of this fun-filled exploration of Underdogs. Parents: getting ready to do a lot explaining.

Well, what can I say?

Just watched the first episode and it's everything you'd expect with Ryan Reynolds narrating - witty, engaging and effortlessly entertaining. His storytelling, laced with humour, perfectly complements the breathtaking visuals. The curated music and sound effects elevate every scene, while the slick cuts, smooth transitions and impressive CGI add even more polish. Can't wait to dive into the rest of the series!

If you're a film junkie like myself then you'll appreciate the time and effort that Tom Stephens and everyone else put in to make this happen.

I enjoyed it. Not my place to say where it could have been improved. It is what it is.

Thank you.

It's not a bad nature show. I learned several things I did not know. It is interesting, and the cinematography is amazing! However, there are some, more than some, unnecessary sexually suggestive content. In Disney fashion, they pander to parents and their children but allow the most ridiculous trash on their app. The narration of this nature show is no different. "This guy is tripping balls," is a prime and one of the more subtle examples. It's not Deadpool, but in my humble opinion, it is not appropriate for children under the age of 13. I will say that 8th grade boys will get a kick out of the crude humor.

Ryan Reynolds narrating - funny, engaging and entertaining. His storytelling, laced with humour, perfectly complements the visuals.

The series itself ranges from the large animals of Africa, to cuter ones in Bali, India sea creatures and also insects.

The Carnivorous larvae of the fungus gnat in New Zealand (pretty glow worms), spiders (of course) and other small life forms.

You'll never look at child raising the same way again.

Some of it is funny, the brutal attempt by jackals to dismantle and eat Barry the Honey Badger, the fall of the baby artic geese from 800ft up, the sh***y defense (literally) of male hippos, it is NOT for the squeamish.

We all know about vultures meals and the cat iron stomachs but did you know all the different vulture specialities? The Bu** eater for instance?

It is a fascinating and well produced documentary, perhaps not all suitable for the children though.

It starts with meals, and defence, seeking a mate, sex practices, moves on to birth, child rearing, and covers the grossiest habits of the gross creatures around the planet finally.

Eeeww.....but very very interesting. One of the best ones and highly recommended.
