Frozen Planet DVD Collection, Review and Giveaway!

by // 43 Comments

If you love exciting, educational TV…then you will love Frozen Planet!

Frozen Planet airs every Sunday night at 8 pm on the Discovery channel.  I had never watched it until recently, we were missing out for sure.  I was sent a 3-disc complete series collection.  We have not made it through the entire series yet, but what we have watched so far has been phenomenal!  

The series is from Emmy® Award winning Executive Producer Alastair Fothergill (of Planet Earth) and is narrated by the legendary Sir David Attenborough, hailed by The UK Telegraph as “the father of natural history television.”

The camera work was nothing short of amazing!  The time and effort put into the filming is evident.  Beautiful time lapse video showing you just what happens.  I was truly amazed by what was captured!

The kids were enthralled with eyes riveted to the screen the entire time it was playing, their little minds just soaking it all in like sponges.  This is a great educational tool.  Something that made them feel like they were right there experiencing it first hand.

We had a little viewing party!  We cooked on the grill and even had themed cookies!

I am anxious for this evening to come so that we can watch more episodes!

Frozen Planet Overview
A BBC/Discovery Channel co-production four years in the making, Frozen Planet is ambitious and epic in scale and provides the ultimate portrait of our earth’s Polar Regions, capturing the power of natural elements and the fragile, jaw-dropping beauty of scenery unlike anywhere else in the world. This landmark high definition series brings to the screen the frozen wilderness of the polar region for what could be the last time before they change forever.
Featuring the incredible wildlife cinematography that made Planet Earth a worldwide success, Frozen Planet has taken new technology to the most extreme and remote parts of our planet capturing groundbreaking imagery above and below the ice.
Encounter spectacles that few of us will ever witness first hand. Go deep under the sea-ice into a magical world of giants, plunge into the heart of an erupting polar volcano and fly to the South Pole across the Antarctic icecap – the largest concentration of ice on earth – retracing the steps of the great Polar explorers.
Get closer than ever before to the lives of our best loved and most charismatic animal characters – polar bears, penguins, wolves and orcas, and witness the most extraordinary examples of survival against the odds that can be found anywhere on our planet.
