Planet Earth: Complete Collection (5 Disc)

This is one of the best DVD sets I have ever bought (and I like to buy 'em)! I watch all of the Discovery Channels, Travel Channel, Learning Channel, National Geographic & etcetera, whenever I have time. This collection still showed me many, many things I had never seen before, or could have ever imagined. I have watched animal and eco documentaries all of my life and I was amazed at the information new to this series. I highly recommend this collection for anyone. This would also be a great set for schools. I would think that teachers would love showing this series in the classroom. I don't own a Bluray DVD player just yet, just a progressive scan, but I watched the series on Discovery HD before I bought it. I might have to buy a Bluray now.

Just read the pros and cons section. This is some of the most beautiful photography you will EVER see for a documentary series like this. These people spent so much time and effort capturing this stuff on film, and it really shows. Also, they go in depth and tell you and show you a lot about this planet you never knew. AND, check out "The Blue Planet" if you get a chance...equally AMAZING!

I bought this as a Christmas Present for my girlfriend. We watched it the first night she got it. Wow! This is an amazing series. We only watched one of the DVD's but it is truly worth the money that I paid for it. I am looking forward to watching more DVD's like this series.

Truly the most spectacular, unbelievable film I've ever seen compared to any movie, TV show, music, live concert, that you have seen or can imagine. You cannot appreciate the earth you live on until you see this. A must see for every human being. I'm buying it as a gift for everyone on my Christmas list because I don't want them to miss it.

I am not a fan of buying series or even documentaries, I bought this for my wife who's a teacher, to use it in her classes. What a shock! Amazing! This is like having a small encyclopedia on Earth science in your dvd player. I am glad that we purchased and discovered this amazing BBC 11 episodes story, especially for my daughter - there could not be a better way to learn about our natural heritage, but by watching it.
