Lars W @RT37575372 May 27 Ob am helllichten Tage oder spät in der Nacht, diese Serie hat mir viel Freude gebracht. Langeweile gibt's nicht mehr die Natur gefällt mir sehr. Menschen sind absurd, Tiere doch auch, das bringt mit sich der Lebenshauch. Darum eine Serie, um dies zu zeigen, doch Vorsicht: nichts für die Feigen. Darum, wer sie noch nicht kennet, ich empfehle absurd planet! See more Jeremy J @RT98816013 03/24/2025 I regret letting my son watch this. It’s American pop culture garbage. Likely to make your kid less intelligent, less educated, and to speak like a TikTok addicted fool. See more johann m @Johann33 11/08/2021 A funny science series that offers an inside look into the lives of the planet's most intriguing animals, with narration provided by a cast of quirky animal creatures, as well as Mother Nature herself. However, it is also incredibly cringey and not very family friendly despite the fact it says it is. See more 06/22/2020 Absolute crap. Not for kids. Full of sexual innuendos. Dont waste your time. See more Sean G @RT76886129 06/06/2020 Very funny writing and visuals. Not everyone will get the sense of humor but my daughter and I really like the show See more 06/02/2020 This is a great series!!! The commentary makes it the greatest nature series to watch!!
