Through 'Prehistoric Planet,' David Attenborough guides us through a series that folds time in on itself, in more ways than one.
The new Apple TV+ docuseries, Prehistoric Planet, is a work of stunning cinematic time travel. It takes us back millions of years into the age of the dinosaurs, making use of incredible special effects that bring the beings to life and provide insights through the most up-to-date research into what their existence would have been like. It melds the two to create vibrant worlds and even more magnificent creatures.

For decades, he has been desperately trying to bring our attention to how dangerous the trajectory our planet is on will be to the most vulnerable living on it.
The whole experience serves as one of the more profound yet tragic shows Attenborough has done. As we hear him reflect back on the past that will all too soon become the present for creatures living now, we can feel a rising tension amidst the timelessness of the series. It is a remarkable work, riveting in its depictions and dedication to detail, though this just makes it all the more painful to know such loss is coming.
