About
You’ll probably like Planet Earth III if you enjoy majestic wildlife stories with hope and urgency, and don’t mind frequent sad moments; Not for you if you want purely upbeat nature viewing or dislike strong climate- or humanity-focused themes like in Blue Planet II or Planet Earth II.
Pros: stunning wildlife; heartfelt hope; engaging variety | Cons: emotionally heavy; distracting human angle; mixed pacing
