I watch this show last night and found it very interesting. I want to see more. I enjoyed watch the 4-D pictures.

I love tonight's Amazing Planet series. However, the explanation of the coriolis effect shows the earth's rotation backwards, which makes the circular rotations of the atmosphere seem counter-intuitive. It's like the old ABC or NBC News opening graphic of the earth rotating backwards.

I wish to praise Patricia
Clarkson on her narrative of "Born of Fire" and
the end that I saw of "Born
of the Ocean". Her commentary was expertly
delivered and the script
was witty at times. However, those spots of
witticism would be disastrous for us. Great
show.
