Troy Patterson The New Yorker 05/09/2020
The resources (and drones) of the BBC Natural History Unit are deployed to full effect here, and there's a sober sense of fortitude in its tone toward climate change. David Attenborough's voice-over invites polite astonishment. Go to Full Review

4/5
The title may sound like a marketing motto dreamt up by the World Bank, but - focusing on a different continent each week - it otherwise bears the hallmarks of a suitably dazzling BBC/Attenborough operation. Go to Full Review

This was wildlife documentary as high-stakes drama. We're in for an autumnal treat over the next six weeks. Go to Full Review

Seven Worlds, One Planet will blow you away with its visuals and its unprecedented access to certain species, even if the presentation itself can be dry at times. Go to Full Review
David Bianculli NPR's Fresh Air 01/17/2020
Every episode includes sequences that will make your jaw drop -- and the variety of subjects, which in these seven episodes range from polar bears to fireflies, is astounding. As a work of television, this nature series is astounding, too. Go to Full Review

Rose G @Rosegg 6d Amazing! I thought it was AI, camera work was so good. Although I cried almost every 10 mins, it is such an emotional documentary. See more 03/05/2020 By now, we're all used to the amazing docuseries coming from the BBC Natural History Unit and David Attenborough but this takes it to a new level and manages to wow afresh. See more 02/17/2020 Great cinematography and a few interesting facts though we've seen much of it before in the many shows of this variety that have aired before. Not much on the 'ways' and 'hows' of the planet and it's continents, but more of a quick overview of pinpointed areas that then focuses on a few animals in these areas and how they live and survive, especially in the dire situation of deforestation and climate change. (A dark and worrisome theme throughout many episodes). More of a new version of the vintage "Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom," than a in-depth series like BBC's 'Planet Earth' or 'Blue Planet.' Though like those, it is narrated by the great David Attenborough. It is listed on TV as season one, so maybe it will benefit from additional seasons that when combined will give us a more thorough overview of our world's continents. I was hoping more for a thorough look into everything about each continent, from their land, the forests, deserts, rivers and climate, to their societies and people. Instead we just get some selected tales of how a selected animal hunts and struggles in about an hour's run time. Still an important series to understand what man is doing wrong to this planet. See more 02/15/2020 It's Sir David doing what Sir David does, and that's showing us how fantastic and awe-inspiring our world is. 5 starts for Sir David, his crew and our planet, we're lucky to have them. See more 01/27/2020 Absolutely stunning. Just a perfect nature documentary: the narration, the footage, the music - everything is just on a top level. See more 01/21/2020 Sí es con sir David Attenborough y de la BBC ya es seguro que será de lujo y esta serie en efecto es otro éxito mas. Siete capítulos llenos de imágenes asombrosas y que muestran como el humano ha destruido el mundo salvaje, con mucha ayuda del cambio climático que originamos, a un punto de casi no retorno. Las historias son muy tristes pero vale la pena verlas para estar al tanto de todo el daño que le hacemos al planeta. See more Read all reviews
