Is this the name of this new show? I haven't actually seen it, but have heard good things. Including but not limited to, one mother on my mom's board...the most consumer driven mother I know in fact, has been inspired to start trying to go green at home. I can't imagine what the show must be like if this mom has changed her ways....can anyone comment on it?

We've seen several of the programs, and I hope to watch some more as it re-airs here.

The "American" version has been causing some raised eyebrows in the press here, as the Discovery Channel decided to remove David Attenborough's voiceover and replace it with that of Sigourney Weaver. Tsk tsk tsk.

There's a lot of info on this page:

I watched one episode on Discovery Channel. I wanted to watch more... it was some really interesting new footage.

I didn't notice the Sigourney Weaver bit...

I like her, but her voice is a bit distracting in the series, for some reason.

I watched the whole series, and will be getting it on HD-DVD soon. I highly recommend this series, the cinematography is stunning especially in HD.
