The series was announced by the BBC in 2013 with the working title Oceans, but the title was later changed to Blue Planet II as was revealed on 19 February 2017, making it a follow-up to the 2001 series The Blue Planet. It was credited with increasing public and political interest in issues affecting marine life, in particular marine plastic pollution, which was dubbed 'the Blue Planet effect'. It had the highest viewing figures of any television programme in the United Kingdom during 2017, and was so widely watched in China that it reportedly caused internet issues. The series received almost universal critical acclaim. In the United States, the series premiered on January 20, 2018, as part of a five-network simulcast on BBC America, AMC, IFC, Sundance, and WE tv. The series debuted on 29 October 2017 and was simultaneously cast on BBC One, BBC One HD and BBC Earth, making it the first natural history series to premiere on the same day in the United Kingdom, Nordic regions, Europe and in Asia. The musical score was composed by Hans Zimmer, Jacob Shea and David Fleming, and English rock band Radiohead reworked their 2011 song 'Bloom' with Zimmer specifically for the series.

Īfter being announced in 2013, filming took four years in 39 countries over more than 125 international trips. Like its predecessor, The Blue Planet (2001), it is narrated and presented by naturalist Sir David Attenborough. Given the sluggishness of recent episodes, I'm hoping the reverse is true this time around.Blue Planet II is a 2017 British nature documentary series on marine life produced by the BBC Natural History Unit. Last year, the show's first half was much better than its second. The second best is that it forces the show to build certain stories to a climax and take a bit of a fresh start when it comes back in the spring. The best thing about the split season approach ABC has taken of late with “SHIELD” is that we'll get “Agent Carter” back next month. Brett Dalton's definitely been a more interesting performer as a villain than he was as a hero, but I don't see enough in the guy for the show to keep bending over backwards to keep him around and give him the Fred/Illyria treatment from the final season of “Angel.” And even the satisfaction of that moment only lasted a few minutes, until he re-appeared on Earth, now controlled by Malick's beloved monster. Coulson using his robot hand to crush Ward, when he could have just left the guy behind on the planet to suffer Will's former fate, showed a degree of commitment, even if Fitz for some reason seemed upset to see Phil do it, despite his own oft-stated desire to murder Ward. That said, I have to give the show some amount of credit for realizing it had kept Ward alive and in play long past the point where it made any sense. I appreciated Mack acting like a grown-up on this mission who had to keep everyone else in line, but even the big moment where everyone thought he was dead until the containment unit flew out of the castle ruins felt rushed. (Even “4,722 Hours” couldn't resist turning itself into a Fitz/Simmons cock block halfway through.) But most of the characters and relationships are so fuzzily-defined (Daisy and Lincoln are now a couple because of reasons) that the emotional component to each mission makes everyone seem like a high school student with a gun.

There are isolated moments of note (May shooting Andrew, Coulson reacting to Rosalind's murder), but even they fall victim to the show's need to give every story and every mission some kind of This Time It's Personal hook, as if they don't trust the mission of whatever SHIELD is supposed to be this week to be compelling enough on its own.

This half-season has featured probably the best “SHIELD” episode to date, but on the whole has been the least I've felt engaged with the series since the fumbling early episodes that were marking time until “Winter Soldier.” As I said in that “4,722 Hours” review, the show is at a point where it does a lot of things decently, but few of them very well, and for the most part this season has landed on a bunch of story ideas and character combinations that have never really clicked. A quick review of the “Agents of SHIELD” mid-season finale coming up just as soon as I compare this place to Tatooine…
