Serengeti

Incredible, beautiful, powerful!!! This is a great show you don't want to miss! The camera work is phenomenal!! It is a relaxing show that will move you. If you like animals you will love this show!

I have watched every episode of this TV series and was always compelled to watch the next show and, for the most, found it very enjoyable. Photography here is as beautiful as any natural world documentary seen on the BBC and John Boyega does a great job of narrating the show and brings a passion to the writing but that's where this show falls down. The narrative is that of a story of a family of several different species and is pure fiction to fit the shots captured. If you are keen eyed you will even notice that the animals which they use a certain name for will suddenly have some differences (such as a zebra's stripes) and is blatantly a different animal. I love nature and wildlife and the photography pleased me but I felt patronised, it is bordering on mockumentary. Give me Sir David Attenborough with his factual explanations over this any day.

I'm really enjoying this and although some reviewers are not enjoying the storyline type part I actually think it adds a slightly different twist to other animal documentaries. I am a huge David Attenborough fan and you will never beat his programmes but it's more facts and figures which is what makes Serengeti slightly different. The only thing I'm not too keen on is the music they use.

Stunning footage..to the point on our newer 4k it almost looks unreal. As far as the bad reviews due to "humanizing" the animals and saying "animals don't have human feelings," I say how dare you! If you believe that animals do not feel, love fear, sadness, loss, etc then you are part of the problem in the world's abuse, neglect and exploitation of animals. The production crew Im sure spent a considerable amount of time with these animals, witnessing their everyday triumphs, failures, and hearbreaks. I find giving a voice to the animals..telling us a story from their view..was a beautiful touch to the unbelievable footage.

I found this series refreshingly different from other wildlife series, and I think it's unfair to keep making comparisons to David Attenborough. The camera work is really good this series brings a different perspective on social life of the animals featured
