There's a book that goes with that. I've never seen the film part but the book is pretty good.

I've enjoyed watching these. There is some amazing fossils shown. However I found it odd that he pointed to the swimmerets under the lobster's tail and said those were it's gills. Kind of makes me wonder what other info wasn't 100% accurate.

Thank you, I enjoyed it, my only complaint is they jumped around talking about ages too much for the non-geologist or advanced amateur. They commented on Ammnoids while talking about Cambrian and jumped to Sea scorpions of the Silurian as they were all together other than throwing in a date or two. I also was hurt that they skipped the main predator of the Ordovician, the Nautiloids. A 15 to 20 foot straight Nautiloid would have been pretty scary. It was a very entertaining and informative program. Thank You!!
