Exalt: Maybe the Nostalgia goggles are in play, but Planet Earth 2 was not nearly as good as the first one, imo.

tyrannasorus: It’s because we are skinny and don’t have much fat on us, which is in contrast to their typical prey items so they don’t really bother with us

Exalt: Beats me, but supposedly sharks and orcas don't like how we taste.

Supercommunist: A mammals diets is ofen influenced by what it's mother feeds it. Man eaters don't tend to live very long and pass down their man-eating tendencies to their offspring.

Supercommunist: Humans look larger than they actually are due tom their vertical bipedal stance. Most animals are quadrupeds. Even though a lion is way bigger than the average man, most people are much taller than a lion. Humans are also good at mudering stuff.

dinosauria101: But at this point I guess I should be putting this in threads and not the shoutbox lol.

dinosauria101: If PP makes new seasons in the Cenozoic, they can increase the sadly-short-relative-to-talking-head-docs list of substantial-CGI Cenozoic documentaries (which for aired documentaries is WWB, WWC, Sea Monsters, Prehistoric Park, and maybe Wild New World).

dinosauria101: For another, in the Cenozoic specifically, the nature documentary-style portrayals we want are shockingly uncommon. Most Cenozoic palaeodocumentaries have brief and repeated CGI with 95% talking heads - which I find even Planet Earth style preferable to.

dinosauria101: For one being set in another time fixes their gargantuan problem with only being in the Maastrichtian (which I guess theropod would agree with me on given the discussions we had). This is true whether it's the Cenozoic, Palaeozoic, or earlier Mesozoic.

dinosauria101: And as for Prehistoric Planet specifically, Forgotten Bloodlines reminds me. Should PP make future seasons outside the Maastrichtian (ie: the Cenozoic like FB) like they wanted to, I might actually be able to say that I'd enjoy those at least a bit.
