you should see the squids with shells and the otters that piss off crocodiles

If you're not watching Planet Earth on the Discovery Channel, you should punch yourself in the ear. I recommend the lions hunting the elephant clip, though the videos available don't really do the show justice.

I've been watching it the last few days because there are reruns on demand!

Did you see the salamander with no face?! Or the freaky infections the insects get in the jungle?!

There are reruns on demand?? You just made the next couple days of my life amazing. Thank you.

Yes! And I think they are slowly adding more episodes...I hope.

Yeah those mind-controlling bacteria were fucking amazing. I nearly vomited when they just started exploding out of that thing's head.

And what amazes me the most about that cave salamander is that you can see that he used to have eyes and other facial features, but he stayed in that cave for a few millenia too long. He just let himself go. It's sad, really.

I love how the ants know when they are infected, and they carry them away.

Or what about the birds of paradise that impress the females?! Like the one that fuckin' tap dances around her?!

It doesn't get old.

The dancing bird, oh my god! Oh my god I have to watch these again. Greg has them on DVD (I think) in New York and they blew me away. I'm excited to watch them again. You should be paid to promote this stuff.
