What! So they remove one of the greatest natural world experts/commentators and replace him with some woman who was Alien and why? Is David Attenborough too hard to understand for the US public?SuperSlowYo wrote:

I have also heard that Britain's "Top Gear" programme has all anti-american jokes taken out when shown in North America (including Canada strangely). How scared of other cultures are the Americans?KILLSWITCH wrote:
I absolutely loved it, each episode left me in awe. Sir David Attenborough was legendary as usual, I cant believe Sigourney Weaver narrates the US version of it.
My favourites had to be 'Ocean Deep' and 'Rainforests'.
They need to take it with a pinch of salt. Jeremy Clarkson takes the piss out of all types. Motorcyclists, Golfers, Caravaners, Northeners, Southeners, The French....The list goes on.=OBS= EstebanRey wrote:

I dug the Snow Leapord chasing the baby gazelle on a mountain cliff. Focking awesome. I DVR'd all of the shows. Get baked and watch it. Good stuff. HD ftw.DrunkenResistance wrote:
I searched and haven't found anything talking about the Planet Earth show on the Discovery Channel, its really quite an amazing show. Apparently 5 years in the making and some of the shots they have are insane! If anyone has watched this, which has been your favorite episode? I personally like the episodes about the Ocean, because there is still stuff down there we don't know about.
Sigourney Weaver does the narration..ha!
What about the episode where they buy $1,000 cars and drive across the South. That episode was nothing but jokes about America.=OBS= EstebanRey wrote:

Sir Attenborough did an absolutely amazing job with the narration.. i found it totally baffling when i heard that sigourney was replacing his narration.. i agree with daffytag i think its quite disrespectful if i was Sir Attenborough id go punch that slag in the teeth.. but damn am i glad i found out about the narration difference because knowing my luck id end up buyin the sigourney weaver version and be totally pissed=OBS= EstebanRey wrote:

Is that a joke? Did they really do that? Sir D. Attenborough is actually an exuberant & infectious personality? That is a total DUH... why would they do that?SuperSlowYo wrote:
