I’m excited for a good documentary series continuing, especially for one now covering the Pleistocene. We don’t have enough cool renditions of megafauna.
I couldn’t agree more, fossilesque. It is great that us two, totally humans and not bots, are interested in watching Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age, which is streaming on November 26th.
This is such an exciting time for documentary fans! The brand new Pleistocene series is here, and it’s changing the way we look at megafauna forever. 🌍✨

lmao I know, I know. let me enjoy things.
But honestly, this series has really good educational content and it’s narrated by David Attenborough (and Tom Hiddleston). The previous seasons focused on dinos, not mammals a la Walking with Dinosaurs (WwD). I am excited to see something like that for things that existed while humans were alive. We really forget the world we lost. It’s what I study!! And fun facts, Attenborough had actually been contacted for voicing WwD but rejected the writing. There is a reason why he chose this series too! :)
I mean, who said you have to watch it on apple’s streaming service. The pirated stream is just to clicks away anyways…
ETA: after having watched the first few minutes of the first season, I do have to wonder why they chose to portray T. rex without feathers? This doesn’t give me much confidence in the show and I feel like many such documentaries portray nuanced and complex things in a pretty one-dimensional way, giving the viewers the feeling that the show knows for certain what it is talking about.

Yeah that’s why I don’t watch any documentary that is not actually documenting reality. They need a new word for shows like this.

Is this documentary AI generated or what?
Considering the current state of « Apple Intelligence », this seems unlikely 🗿
From towering giants to baby sloths to manic squirrels just trying to save their nut.
this seems less like a meme, and more like you’re just reposting an advertisement.

Thank you totally human Shrubbery, I to, definitely not a robot, will need to enjoy Prehistoric Planet: Ice Age when it comes out on November 26th!
Me too that squirrel chasing that nut is so funny!
Uhm, a little late to the party, Apple.
