First, only a few episodes of this series are based on established scientific facts and knowledge, most of the others have gone into the realm of science fiction including computer-generated images of alien worlds and possible alien life forms and, and future sex in space CG effects?

The drums and bass sounds in the background and all the booms, bangs, hundreds of images coming in and out and shaking the screen in all episodes completely unnecessary and REALLY ANNOYING!!! Sometimes you cannot even hear the narration over the beats and bangs!

It's really tiring to watch this because of the shaking images and loud sudden unexpected sounds, the whole series is like a carousel of disaster!!!!

Also, the examples / demonstrations used to explain the phenomenons are repeating on an on, several times, practically the whole series time can be cut in less than half of actual scientific content.

It’s also irritating (as other users said) that the producers of this series have interruptions predicting death and destruction on Earth!! On all episodes, every few minutes - again and again and again and again....

History Channel! Redo this, put all series together and produce one great series out of these, by cutting out off the rubbish!!

I've seen the show on TV few years ago and it's been OK. Unfortunately the bluray picture quality is really poor here. Animations look blurry and some parts are dvd quality pasted into the episodes on BR.. Not surprised whole season cost around 5GBP...

This did not disappoint. I had Season 1 on Blu-Ray and will be getting Season 3 in March. They are really informative and have good quality graphics in the blu-ray format. A must for anyone with even the slightest interest space, the planets and the Universe.

Great series, everybody should watch, but no UK narrator!

This is a brilliant series, you will learn so much about the forces out there and you will develop an appreciation for the true neighbourhood our tiny little speck of a world is living in with the spectacular visuals, fascinating analysis and illuminating experts interviewed. I don't think there's ever been such a complete series about the Universe that analyses all sorts of fascinating subjects about it in such complete depth, but there is one small gripe with this DVD release. I began watching this series on the History Channel UK and the narrator is localised for the UK, and he does an excellent job. Unfortunately even though this is the Region 2 edition and therefore released for Europe you don't get him, instead you get the original US narrator, it just doesn't feel the same, it feels a bit more sensational and not as authoritative a narration because of this. So I would ask them on any subsequent releases to include the UK narration version at least as a separate audio track then the set would be perfect.
