(Ed. Note: This Discovery HD Theater special does not show up in my EPG
for tonight (3/15). If anyone reading this has it in their guide, please post.)
I am sure it will be beautiful in all its HD glory. But I fear it is also going to be full of environmentalist and global warming bull crap. Why do they always have to make political points. Just show us nature and leave out the commentary.
Like every single animal show on any channel ends with:
"But the sharks are not the dreaded species we make them out to be, it is MAN who is to blame for ..."
or "It is human beings who kill more...."
Oh yes, we are so evil, why don't we just leave this planet and let it exist on its own without us. In case they forgot, um, a few species died out on their own before man got here, like a million of them. Ever heard of the dinasaurs? Did man cause their extinction. One volcano causes more pollution in the atmosphere than all of mankind's history.
I agree with most of what you are saying, Ebaltz, but please save it for another
time and place. I'm just giving a heads up on new HD programming that may
be of interest to others. Also, I'm trying to find out if anyone has the program
listed in their guide.

Ebaltz, Why can't we all just post about good HD content and not about anti environmentalist bull crap? Why do people always have to post political points? <sigh>

I was agreeing with you but I guess you missed it........but what's wrong with staying on topic?
Planet Earth is still not in my guide via DHDT but I did a search and the program is listed in several SD channels.
