Parques da América

This docuseries plays like "When Animals Attack." The narrator's voice is beyond irritating and rather than seeing the beauty and majesty of the national parks and their inhabitants, we see animals killing each other as the narrator ensures with his tone that it's all very dramatic. Very disappointing.

This could have been a great series but they absolutely ruined it with the background music and commentary. I couldn't get past the first episode and I'm a nature junkie and a national park fanatic.

Starting off watching Episode 1 of the series with hopes to learn more about the beauty & history of Olympic National Park. This turned out not to be the case with the majority of the video quickly going past information on the park and focused much more on animals killing each other. After this happened a few times, we noticed the trend go from beautiful views of the park, then straight into a narrative of another animal about to die. Really a shame the storyline focused on that aspect of nature, instead of actual information about the National Park as the images shown are still quite impressive.

The Grand Canyon episode was pretty good.

The one on the Smokies was dumb. Not enough about the beauty of the scenery and things to do & see... too much about one family of bears. Told us about how they relocated Manitoban elk to the park, then used this transplanted elk as an example that "you can come home again." Odd. The worst part was describing fish laying eggs as "an orgy" ... weird and ridiculous.

Some of the best animal filming I've ever seen, but really hard work to watch when you have to listen to the commentary and backing music - toggling between the ultra dramatic and ridiculously cliche and corny.

Such a shame, could have been an outstanding series, but really can't be taken seriously with this narrator.
