Console best movie i've ever seen.

dwissba I don't care what anyone says about not liking this program I feel it's one of the more original programs to come out of the History Channel in a long time. And now all new shows of Life After People starts 1/5/10. It is fascinating to see what would happen to our cities and beloved landmarks once people where no longer on the planet to tend to them. How fast nature would re-claim what is hers. Not only do they show what would happened to such places and things as New York, London, The Golden gate Bridge and GM's Head Quarters but they also show examples of places already in decline on the planet because people are not there to look after it. An example is parts of Detroit that is completely void of humans and we are shown buildings crumbling after just a few short decades. Also what is interesting is the environment in which the city is in would determine how fast it would completely vanish. For example, New York would be gone long before Las Vegas being that Vegas is in more of a dry climate. I would like to see more of environmental damage being covered on this program and how it might affect change after humans are gone. But in any case a very smart enjoyable program that I highly recommend.

paul david This was a very watchable documentary and will be useful in schools and colleges, though I do think, like the Secret, it was a little too documentary like. sure to be a winner on the cable channels. i thought an angle was missing on how we should end up with life without people and yet other forms of life exist. the bit about Chernobyl and the neighbouring deserted ghost town was riveting and a real insight; if we originated from monkeys and apes, why was this not explained more/ ape life not mentioned at all until towards the end. are we really interested whether cockroaches will survive? We want the film to give us a better understanding of how we are abusing our planet and development of it. Certainly makes me wonder whether space exploration is in vain. Too American-ized again for me, only brief mentions of London Paris and italy. The visual effects are however excellent and should get further rewards for that at least

MitchellXL5 Impressive visuals, but this is as much science fiction as science fact - the level of speculation that goes on mars it. It routinely ignores non-degradable garbage and nuclear waste in its prognostication, there are huge leaps in logic - for instance, involving zoo animals. They present the only issue as whether they can get out of the zoos, not if they can actually survive the wild, they will actually mate, if there is enough diversity to even create a gene pool for the species to survive. In essence, this show takes incredibly complicated issues with multiple factors and boils them all down to more simple ones. Plus, they misrepresented an area of Chernobyl in order to make their point! There was something vaguely Republican about the whole thing, the idea that no matter what we do to the Earth, it's okay, because it's going to turn back into a pristine Garden of Eden anyhow! Enjoy this for what it is - a science fiction documentary.

verbusen OK I am a nuke war movie buff, mainly for the human drama I now realize but this one caught my eye when the History Channel advertised it so I watched it. It's kind of cool but the thing is I was wondering what the motivation was to even make this? I said to myself immediately it was made for tree hugger/human haters, and we al;l know there are a bunch of them out there now. Looking at the sparse comments here on IMDb.com AFTER my deduction, I nailed it. A place I'd l;ike to visit, good riddance, lol, bunch of human haters are into this show. I also thought who would really be into this show? Civil Engineers must love watching this, I bet they are saying to themselves yeah I earn my government pay keeping your city livable! Anyway, if your in any of those three groups (post apocalyptic movie buff's/human haters/civil engineer's) you will be interested, if you are not in any of those groups, this is pretty pointless viewing. I did have a comical thought, in this make believe world there were three people that were left, Burgess Meredith (Time Enough to Read-Twilight Zone), Bruce Willis (Twelve Monkeys), and Peter Ustinov (Logan's Run), I don't know what happens when they all get together but that would have have been a lot more fun to watch then to see building's crumble, lol. I guess you could have thrown in Robert Duvall (THX 1138 ending) and Rod Taylor (The Time Machine), and a couple of women from Roger Corman end of the world films to spice it up more, maybe not. 3 of 10, maybe more if your really bored with what's on TV.
