I bought David Attenboroughs "The Life of Mammals" boxset last week, top notch stuff and in HD it just looks astounding.

Yes I DVR'd that entire series, absolutely breathtaking, amazing, inspiring. One of the best things I've ever seen. I may buy the HD-DVD set as well when I want to free up space on my DVR.

I implore all of you who have an HD-TV to check that out.

I did the same, but the HD shows take up tons of memory...totally worth it though.

none of this doctor who shite, planet earth is a proper program. Probably the best thing the BBC has done for a while. Never seen it in HD but I absolutely loved the series!!!

I've got them all on my DVR, too. Great series. I enjoy most everything on the Discovery HD.

Yep, Planet Earth is one of those rare shows that actually make me proud to say I work for the BBC.

Speaking of the BBC, not sure if many of you guys caught this:

Patrick Moore

And just to put it in context, this is what the guy has achieved with his life:

Yes and no. There is lots of great commentary that supports all the awesome video footage, so you learn more about what you're seeing.

The episode on caves was my absolute favorite.
