Anyone Watching Planet Earth?

I think my attention span isn't short enought for this program. What I saw was pretty, but the constant commercial interuptions and little messages zipping across the bottom of the screen were maddening. I eventually left during one break to balance my checkbook.

I found I also had a hard time with scale watching this. Is that satelite footage? is that an island group or a continent? Are those creatures huge or microscopic? The uberzooms help but I wish they'd provide a bit more context to some of the images.
