The Discovery Chanel

[stdreb27]

Hey I'm not sure if it is ok to talk about TV shows here, But if you haven't watched Planet Earth on the discover channel you are missing out. This mini-series is spectacular! It really does a great job capturing the beauty of nature! And their episode on the oceans are spectacular. Watch it!

HD is awesome! I'm just awestruck. the 1080 vs CRT is just not a contest.

I really want to catch that but I never know what time it's on. Did you hear about the supposed "Osama" hiding amongst the leopards? That made me laugh, thinking of watching all the leopards and having his fat head in the backround talking gibberish to them.

Did you see the part when the fish were schooling to protect the nurse shark from the tuna only to have the nurse shark eat some of them?

Not sure what you mean here, but there are 1080 CRTs..

 

[stdreb27]

really? I didn't know that I thought there were only 1080 projection, lcd, and plasmas. I didn't think the CRT was capable of the definition. I guess i mean the 460. Is that what they are. I know it is 400 something.

The CRT HDTV are not as deep as a conventional CRT, but can still put out a 480, 720 and 1080 picture..Not as crisp I agree, but still fully capable of a great picture...LCD is the best hands down

I thought it was amazing that there could be such life at the ocean floor. The picture of the crabs and eels eating that rotting sperm whale. To the bone. And those rays that were 20 feet across.

I like seeing the little hopping bird. I wish I could get a desk toy with that same exact scene.
The cave jump is one of my favorite pieces of film ever recorded. I hope to one day be able to do something like that.
