Consisting of 10 episodes, each 50 minutes long, this BBC masterpiece sets out with a very ambitious goal: to cover entire life on our planet in 500 minutes. Since it is BBC, they pretty much nailed it. Narrated by Sir David Attenborough, the series does a wonderful job of representing each major group in animal and plant kingdoms. The final episode deals with our closest relatives, primates. Life won an Emmy in 2010 for Outstanding Cinematography for Nonfiction Programming.
