Life - On Discovery

draco sky · April 2010

Has anybody watched the "LIFE" series on Discovery Channel? It's on now. It's pretty rad (although narrated by Oprah, I'd rather have Mike Rowe tell me a story). The pictures are simply amazing.

I'm not watching it now, but I did watch a bunch of them. I was not a fan of Oparh narrating though.

draco sky · April 2010

Yeah, Oprah can stick to her talk show. Storytelling isn't her forte.

laurenclaire1386 · April 2010

I've watched nearly every one of them, and they are indeed, awesome. Oprah narrating it is proof that the 2012 theory is true. Oprah is going to show you how neat the planet is before she destroys it, and she can, because she's the antichrist. Srsly.

Yes, I was watching the Birds episode the other day. I feel quite fortunate, as I was able to picture the mating dance of Nugget's FI as that of a Spatuletail hummingbird, instead of a crazy naked guy dancing around the house.

I will say that I don't like it as much as Planet Earth, though.

That is an awesome theory!

draco sky · April 2010

I guess the one on now is the first one? I'm not sure. It's about starfish eating a dead baby seal.

laurenclaire1386 · April 2010

A few of the episodes really grossed me out, like the sea snake one. Fvck a damn sea snake.

mandybear7 · April 2010

I love the series. The "hunters" episode was my favorite.

I like Planet Earth better also.

draco sky · April 2010

Hmm, I still have yet to see Planet Earth. As long as Oprah isn't telling the story, I'm in!

draco sky · April 2010

These spider crabs are creepily cool. Their "dance" is amazing!

laurenclaire1386 · April 2010

Sigourney Weaver does Planet Earth. I liked her narrating. She has a soothing voice. Oprah thinks she's funny and she's not and it bugs me.

Sigourney Weaver narrates Planet Earth. She is a good narrator.

That's it.. I could not point my finger on it but I just did not like Oparh. I think you are right it's her attempt to by funny is really annoying.

draco sky · April 2010

Makes you wonder if she approached Discovery or if they approached her. I'm sitting here thinking "shut up already!".

She probably called Discovery and made them do the whole thing. It's part of her apocalypse plan. I've thought about this way too much, clearly.

draco sky · April 2010

HAHA! That's funny!

shellydiane820 · April 2010

I have not watched Life. We lack cable. I'm watching Spinal Tap instead.

I love you. Also, I want my obituary to say I died in a bizarre gardening accident. No matter how I die. I had my boss notarize a document I wrote up stipulating this, so it should happen.

shellydiane820 · April 2010

I hope I choke on vomit when I die...somebody else's vomit.

Maybe its better left a case unsolved.

laurenclaire1386 · April 2010

Shelly, have you ever seen Best In Show? It has some of the same writers and actors from Spinal Tap and I think that's why I loved it so much.

shellydiane820 · April 2010

Of course! I loved Best in Show!

WHERE'S THE BUSYBEE!?

NuggetBrain · April 2010

That series is awesome, and not just because they had an entire episode about monkeys.

Okay, it totally was because they had an entire episode about monkeys.

Parker Posey plays a bitch better than anyone I've ever seen.

shellydiane820 · April 2010

its true.

have you seen waiting for guffman?

laurenclaire1386 · April 2010

No, but when I double checked to make sure I had my facts straight on BIS and SP, that came up. And I'm going to see if I can stream it on Netflix like right now.

shellydiane820 · April 2010

Add Guffman to your list!
