Nature

This is one of the most honored series ever on U.S. television. It lost its way for awhile after creator George Page left in 1998 due to a serious illness, but it's back now. Even though there are fewer programs per season (probably due to spiraling production costs), the reruns are so good you don't mind. 'Nature' is the main reason I've contributed to public television stations for nearly thirty years.

According to the official 'Nature' website at pbs.org, "The series has won more than 450 honors from the television industry, the international wildlife film community, parent groups, and environmental organizations - including 10 Emmy Awards, three Peabody Awards, and the first honor ever given to a program by the Sierra Club."

Best Series that conects is in the world universe.

Right from the Introduction snippet, to the Beautiful intro music, the amazing content captured in varied locales of the world to the Closing Music Love every bit of it. I feel this is the "one" show that all kids must watch - to learn about nature and their environment. I have downloaded the Intro and Closing credit mp3s (and the remixed version) from the PBS.org site and can listen to it endlessly in a loop! Some of my favorite episodes are listed below 1. In the Valley of the Wolves 2. Animal Odd Couples 3. Love in the Animal Kingdom 4. Super Hummingbirds 5. Snow Monkeys 6. An Original DUCKumentary 7. Birds of the Gods. 8. Black Mamba

Not 100% accurate!! Brown Peninsula Bears are NOT Grizzly Bears!! "Grizzly bears" are also "brown bears", but as their habitat is on mountain slopes, tundra plains and inland forests they are typically smaller in size than coastal bears. They should really get their facts straight before making a documentary.........and the narrator is a bit annoying; sounds like she has a mouth full of food.

NATURE's "The Polar Bears of Churchill with Ewan McGregor" finds the actor in a remote Canadian outpost on Hudson Bay, where he investigates the annual invasion of hungry polar bears that threaten to raise havoc in their haste to get out on the newly frozen ice and hunt for seals.

The documentary features Ewan in some sticky situations with up close encounters.

A very good documentary and lots of Ewan viewing time!

Worth the 19.95 to buy it!
