I've personally never cared too much about these types of shows, and have rarely ever watched the Discovery Channel except for maybe Mythbusters, but their new special that starts tomorrow night at 8PM ET looks pretty interesting. They've supposedly got 5 years worth of unique video from all over the world, showcasing rarely seen footage of nature. Using HD and High Speed cameras, as well as numerous other new filiming techniques to capture amazing videos. The trailer on the page looks good, and some of the commercials I've seen for it look pretty impressive. I may have to check it out, and see if it can hold my interest. Anyone here know more about it, or plan on giving it a try? Here is the official site, with the trailer and a few clips: http://dsc.discovery.com/convergence...99-502-ah-1017

Re: Planet Earth special on Discover Channel
wow, looks interesting. i may watch this with my daughter. thx...I am glad I got the Buell- I love riding it, I love the oddball looks I get on the road- I love people asking "What IS that thing?" I love flying into a corner WAY too hot, scared spitless and sure I'll never hold it at this speed- and hearing the bike whisper "Sissy!"... -

Re: Planet Earth special on Discover Channel
Discovery Channel is great. It's always finding ways to have an interesting special.
I'll catch this along with my FOX shows."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: Planet Earth special on Discover Channel
I've been anticipating this for a while. When you don't have the internet and literally can not get into any trouble at all, you end up watching the Travel Channel, the history Channel and Discovery Channel a lot. At least I do.Comment
