Planet Earth
I really wish they hadn't dubbed over Sir David Attenborough's voice in the US version of Planet Earth. The photography is great, but the narration is garbage.

that was a seriously odd marketing decision.
I'm pretty sure that at least the BluRay US release has Attenborough's narration. I definitely don't remember hearing Sigourney Weaver when watching it.
correct! The blu-ray version does have Attenborough VO.

The inane stupid belief that Americans only want to see and hear other Americans.
It is horrible. One of the things that makes those series stand out is Attenborough's love for nature and his ability to communicate the beauty of biology no matter what it is. How they went from a biologist experienced in documentaries to some American actress is beyond comprehension. But then again, we are talking about the Discovery channel.
