I was watching this documentary on Discovery last night. It was about deserts in our planet. And I can't begin to describe the amazing experience of watching this excellent television show. There are scenes so mindblowing you wonder how on earth they were able to capture them. These people must have spent years just to capture one small event such as a rare flash flood in the middle of the Sahara. This documentary leaves you in awe of our planet and of man's commitment to create a true
television work of art.
This is amazing television. Don't miss it. Playing on Discovery.

Definitely agree! I've already watched the 'Mountains' and 'Oceans' episodes. (I TiVo'ed last night's 'Desert' episode). The first two were spectacular as well. I believe the filmmakers spent 5 years recording these. In the 'Oceans' one, divers were in the water with sharks swimming around them and no protection whatsoever!!
It is one of the best series i've seen. If you saw Blue Planet, this is far more ambitious. There are shots from the air that capture the animals at a whole different perspective. And the filmmakers have also gone to where no other crews have gone to film animals that have never been seen on a screen. It is truly amazing. And the fact that it is HD, with slow motion capture, its awesome, you can see EVEryTHING!
