Overview
Sir David Attenborough narrates this critically acclaimed series that dives deep into the marine environment of Planet Earth. Although two-thirds of the world's surface is covered with water, scientists know less about the oceans than they do about the surface of the moon. This limited series travels from various coasts to the poles to examine watery denizens ranging from the gigantic blue whale to microscopic coral polyps.

Overview
"Amazon Abyss" explores the world beneath the surface of the Amazon River. Until this feature was filmed, no one had ever explored the depths of the Amazon due to the harsh conditions. The Amazon's swift and treacherous currents and dark water, stained by sediment, conceals ¼ ton Cayman alligators, stingrays, piranhas and anacondas. Veteran divers and naturalists braved the challenge to explore this new frontier.
