It is a fantastic series, by why change the narrator when David Attenborough is the tops?

Presumably Attenborough himself decided this...he runs the BBC.

Is there something wrong with David Attenborough?


Do Americans need the tones of Oprah in order to pay attention to something?

Actually Oprah's popularity is increasing. Her ratings are up 39% this season:

Why don't you build yourself up instead of trying to tear others down?
