common sense media says
A stunning armchair tour of our largest state.
parents & educators say
What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this impressive nature series is well suited for family viewing. Both adults and kids will be inspired by the majestic scenery and shots of wildlife like bears, caribou, and bald eagles in their natural surroundings. There are learning opportunities as well, as host Jeff Corwin gives thorough background on the scientific factors (glaciers, earthquakes, volcanoes) that formed -- and continue to reshape -- the land. If your kids are very young, you might need to explain some animal behavior, like occasional scenes of creatures eating their prey.
Violence & scariness:
Occasional scenes of animals killing and eating prey. Also, the host often discusses the potential dangers of what he's doing; in one segment, for example, he likens falling out of his canoe in a treacherous stretch of river to the effect of a potato meeting a grater.
