    Yet another masterpiece from BBC Nature & David Attenborough

    What to say about Planet Earth II which has not already been said about so many other fantastic productions from BBC Nature?

    I've no idea.

    However: the production values are as always the very best in the business, the photography is likewise unmatched and it's all tied together with masterful insight and authority by David Attenborough, the man who through more than four decades has taught the planet more about the natural world than any ten others put together.

    Simply superb.

    The actual content? That you need to see for yourself.

    One of the best documentaries I 've ever seen

    One of the best documentaries I 've ever seen. Every episode is a new wonderful experience,getting to know the world that surrounds us. David Attenborough is the best narrator out there and this is his latest masterpiece. The crew has worked hard and managed to capture a large aspect of wild life whether it lives on a remote island in the arctic ocean or deep in one of the large human cities in India or United States of America. It shows that they put a lot of effort and time filming this under harsh conditions,but the close up captures of wild animals in their natural environment was worth the effort. Watched it already twice and will watch it again! This is something to watch again and again with your children, until the next Planet Earth arrives. Well done!

    Best thing on TV since last Planet Earth

    This is without doubt the best thing I have seen on television for years. The photography, narration and general story telling of the lives of the animals is simply breath-taking.

    Episode 1 was animals that live on islands. As others have mentioned I have never seen such a more terrifying piece of natural-history photography in my life. I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't seen it or caught it on YouTube but I never thought I would be shouting at the TV for Iguana's to run.

    Episode 2 was mountain living wildlife from Grizzly Bears coming out of hibernation to Snow Leopards.

    This programme is one of the few examples which envelopes you in its documentary telling. You are seeing things for the first time and you are left with wanting more. Roll on episode 3, jungles.

    Dangerously beautiful

    Hello this is my first written review. Note that I haven't watched the first season (2006) so I can't compare both.

    This series will get you the feels when you read a good book, watched a good movie, or played a good game, because this is more than good.

    THIS IS A VERY BEAUTIFUL MASTERPIECE and of course with the danger of nature itself included.

    I don't know how they got those shots and the audio, even the music just like the rush when you first meet your crush, and the story with narration slaps you with the cold harsh of reality and the mesmerizing it gave. You are watching a book of life with enough drama and some bitter truth in every paradise, because life is never perfect.

    I'm very thankful for whomever people that makes this show to be realized, from the smallest task to the most dangerous.

    Thank you very much for this ineffable experience.

    Excellent

    The opening image of Planet Earth II contained the promise of everything to come. It was spectacular, it was beautiful, it was magical.

    A hot air balloon floated like a snowflake, two miles above

    an Alpine.

    The theme of the episode was "Islands", and we got off to a winningly cute start with a visit to idyllic Escudo, off Panama.

    Its star attraction is a three-toed pygmy sloth spurred into slow motion action by the cry of a potential mate. But no doubt what most people will remember, and talk about today, were the baby iguanas running the gauntlet of swarms of racer snakes on the Galapagos island of Fernandina.

    how beautiful our world and its living thing .....

    and how beautiful and big the creator of this whole universe ....

    I think people have to watch this types of films which is real one .
