Our Great National Parks - a fascinating look over some of our planet’s most fascinating places

 



Our Great National Parks is one more documentary begging you to protect our planet. But, instead of focusing on the bad things, this time, it shows the most beautiful landscapes and fantastic animals - what you’re losing if we don’t take care of our planet. 

It shows the most wonderful places and the most unexpected curiosities about those places and their animals. It gives us a reason to fight for planet Earth.

What makes it different from all other documentaries you may have already seen? Not much, but President Obama’s narration is lovely to listen to. 

They do... what?!


This show doesn’t simply show the animals living in the chosen places. It focuses on the ones that have something out of the ordinary. Some surprising intelligent level, or bizarre behaviors, sometimes funny ones. You really want to know what comes next because you want to be surprised.

I would say that all episodes had some fascinating information. However, if I had to choose one, I’d probably go with the surfing hippos. 

The importance of having a safe place


Wild animals can’t live in our cities. They need a protected space to thrive - a place that fills all their needs. Our Great National Parks mission shows us how these places are vital to these animals (and even for us, for the sake of our meds production, for example). 

It also tells us how these parks helped recover some species that were already facing extinction. In fact, Our Great National Parks is a message of hope - our planet can still win.

A good time with Obama!


The show is great, and Obama’s narration gives it a special touch. The places were chosen because they mean something to the former US President, bringing the emotional part any show needs.

I totally recommend you to watch the whole 4 episodes.

Young Sheldon – A Heartfelt and Hilarious Journey

  Young Sheldon is a delightful surprise, blending humor, heart, and a touch of nostalgia. As a prequel to The Big Bang Theory , the show offers insight into the childhood of Sheldon Cooper, one of the most iconic characters in modern TV.  A Show That Grows Beyond Sheldon While you may start watching due to curiosity about Sheldon's early years, it soon becomes clear that this is not just about his childhood. The show includes an incredible variety of characters with their own charm and depth. Mary (Sheldon's religious yet compassionate mother), George (his often misunderstood father), and his siblings, Missy and Georgie, are all given their own moments to shine.  The cast and their chemistry make this show stand out. You start to care about each character's struggles and triumphs. This show quickly stands on its own as a heartfelt, family-driven sitcom. Especially in its last seasons, the show becomes a touching portrayal of small-town life, family dynamics, and persona...

Emily in Paris 3: The Good, the Bad, and the Unrealistic

  The third season of Emily in Paris got a lot of hate and love among the viewers. People can’t decide if it was the best season or the worst of all. And I understand why. We start the season with Emily’s life in perfect chaos, and she doesn’t seem to know what she wants. She never does… Is this good for the plot? Maybe. Is this annoying? Sometimes. So… why can’t we stop watching it? Are you feeling frustrated? Me too. She doesn’t know what she wants. She can’t make a decision, not in her love life, not in her job… And it is not because she wants it all. She is not mature enough to say no and own her decision and its consequences. Emily comes across as a spoiled little girl. The problem is that she is the main character, yet, Mindy starts to feel way more interesting than her. Also, any other character on the show is funnier than Emily, namely her co-workers, who apparently are very bad at their jobs and need her to save them with every single client… How did they keep the company...

Gender, Power, and Cigarettes: Why 'Mad Men' Still Resonates

  Mad Men is a masterpiece of television that blends sharp storytelling with striking period detail, offering a reflective glimpse into the 1960s.  The series follows Don Draper and the high-stakes world of Madison Avenue advertising, all while painting a vivid picture of the era's societal norms, especially the rampant sexism and rigid gender roles.  It's both mesmerizing and infuriating, particularly in its honest depiction of how women were treated. Strong Emotions The show’s brilliance lies in its ability to evoke strong emotions—its subtlety, exceptional writing, and rich characters draw you into a world that feels both foreign and disturbingly recent.  The meticulously crafted period aesthetics are complemented by historical undercurrents, from civil rights to cultural shifts, which remain integral yet never overshadow the deeply personal dramas of the characters. Wait For the Impact Mad Men doesn’t rely on flashy plot twists; instead, it uses nuanced storyte...
