Obsession of the Day: Discovery Channel's presentation of "Life"


I absolutely loved Discovery's presentation of BBC's "Planet Earth" last year, so of course I'm very pumped to see their presentation of BBC's "LIFE". Its another beautiful HD Nature docu-series focused more towards evolution and the existence of life. It was produced by Michael Gunton for BBC and premiered in the UK back in Oct 2009. Capitalizing on the success of "Planet Earth", Discovery is now bringing BBC's latest documentary series installment stateside and I couldn't be happier. Well, that's not completely true... I really am more excited for the "real" sequel to "Planet Earth" (which was produced by Alastair Fothergill) that will debut in 2011 called "The Frozen Planet" (also by Fothergill). But it is nice to see that BBC documentary series can be successful on this side of the pond, let's hope they keep 'em coming. "LIFE" premieres tonight at 8 on Discovery, Animal Planet, Planet Green, and TLC.
