Life After People

I am not sure that the series doesn't just use snippets of the original show, I have seen some episodes where I think I saw the same thing on the show. It is entertaining, and shouldn't be taken too seriously. I have a problem, as many have already argued, that the scenario for the absence of humans is not given any thought. Therein lies the problem with the show and series, you can't really speculate on what happens the hour, week, month after people if you don't explain what happened to neutralize humans around the world at the same time. If we do become extinct, it would more likely be phased out. Anything drastic enough to destroy us all would certainly destroy other forms of life too. Anyway, sometimes when channel surfing, this is about the best thing on, and worth a watch or two.

Loved first two seasons but the new seasons have lousy CG and AI. It is so fake looking. The dogs don't even look right when they show them eating...how hard could that be to do right? Sad to drop the quality so much from the original. And, they are claiming catastrophic changes in just a couple of weeks. In the first seasons it took years for building collapses. So far I am disappointed in the new version.

One of my all time favourite documentary tv shows. The show much like National Geographics Aftermath Population Zero was inspired by the book The World Without Us by Alan Weisman. But to bad that this series only ran for 2 seasons. I Love seeing how nature could make a comeback in a big way if humans just somehow stop the destruction. But just as in Aftermath and The World Without Us, In this show it is if humans all disappeared for some unknown reason. Love how they back up their beliefs with evidence.

I enjoyed watching this because I think that it is very interesting and cool to know about what would happen. I don't like on how this was a very short series.

An interesting concept of how the earth would look if all humans disappeared and the planet went back to its natural state, unimpeded by the modifications of man. It quickly went from very interesting to mildly interesting to boring and repetitive to not even worth finishing. It only took a couple of episodes to get it: internal systems fail, buildings start to break down, nature creeps back in, once mighty structures crumble, etcetera etcetera and so on until not a trace of man's existence remains. The first time it was a great watch but then every other episode was variations on a theme. We didn't even bother watching the last few episodes and skipped series 2 altogether.
