Legendary wildlife host Jack “Jungle Jack” Hanna’s TV franchise library, including 400 episodes of “Jack Hanna’s Into the Wild” and “Jack Hanna’s Wild Countdown” has been acquired by Hearst Media Production Group.
Hearst is the longtime distributor of Hanna’s series, previously owned by Into The Wild, LLC, and already held ownership of “Jack Hanna’s Animal Adventures” and in 2021 launched the Jack Hanna Channel, a Fast channel showcasing hundreds of episodes of Hanna’s adventures in the wild.
Financial terms of the deal to acquire the libraries for “Into the Wild” and “Wild Countdown” were not disclosed.
Nominated for 15 Emmys and winning five, Hanna’s decades-long career in wildlife programming spurred from his background as a conservationist and his position at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium in Ohio. A frequent TV guest of David Letterman, Hanna’s also authored several books, won many awards, and received multiple honorary doctorates.

“Wild Kingdom” is roaring its way back onto NBC more than 60 years after it first debuted on the broadcast network. The iconic wildlife show will return to the Comcast-owned broadcaster this fall in a new iteration produced by Hearst Media Production Group in partnership with the original show’s sponsor, Mutual of Omaha.
Titled “Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom Protecting the Wild,” the new version will be hosted by wildlife expert and “Wild Kingdom” alum Peter Gros, who first appeared on a version of the series in 1985 alongside then-host Jim Fowler. Fowler was the second expert to host “Wild Kingdom,” taking over for the show’s original narrator, zoologist Marlin Perkins, after acting as Perkins’ sidekick from the start.

Like many of his generation, Dan Cogan, the producer of “Becoming Cousteau,” vividly remembers when he first became familiar with the French filmmaker. “I was seven-years-old and sitting on the floor in front of my television and being wowed when I shown his ‘World of Sharks’ and ‘The Story of the Whales.’ Every Sunday night was ‘Wild Kingdom’ and Jacques Cousteau,” Cogan tells Gold Derby in our Meet the Experts: Film Documentary panel (watch the exclusive video interview above). The thought that many might not know who Jacques Cousteau was served as a catalyst for making this film. “It was just shocking to me when I realized that that incredible legacy was disappearing. That’s what began a six year journey to make this film…and to see if we could bring Cousteau back into the cultural conversation of this important moment.”

Jacques Cousteau was an adventurer, filmmaker, inventor, author, unlikely celebrity and conservationist. But for National Geographic’s “Becoming Cousteau,” director Liz Garbus focused on his legacy as an explorer.
Garbus chronicled the highs and lows of Cousteau’s life as an adventurer who was a dedicated conservationist and was highlighting climate change half a century ago.
To tell this story, Garbus partnered with editor Pax Wasserman to comb through Cousteau’s archival footage, and rather than use talking heads, Garbus and Wasserman let the explorer narrate this timely documentary.
Garbus and Wassterman spoke to Variety about their collaboration.
I grew up in the U.K, but wasn’t familiar with Jacques Cousteau, what did he mean to you growing up?
Liz Garbus: He certainly was on in the U.K. I think in some ways, that’s exactly why we made this film. For me, and I think people who...

Months into an expedition through the Amazon in the early ’90s, the Kratt Brothers — as Chris and Martin Kratt are known — were on the lookout for giant river otters, German shepherd-sized animals also known as “lobos de rio,” or “wolves of the river.” A sudden snorting sound had tipped them off to the presence of the endangered predators feisty enough to chase off jaguars, so they hopped into their little boat, video camera in hand.
“We were so into it, and they were just right there,” recounts Martin. “We were getting great stuff. Then suddenly, Chris and I realized our feet were getting wet. We were so excited [that we didn’t realize] we were both on the same side of the pontoon boat … and we were already going down.”
They scrambled to protect their video equipment in a waterproof bag as the boat plunged into the river, where the brothers soon found themselves face-to-face with several giant otters.

Jim Fowler, the naturalist and longtime co-host and host of the TV show Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom, died Wednesday at his home in Norwalk, Connecticut, his family announced. He was 89.
Fowler, an Emmy winner for his work on the nature program, also made more than 100 appearances on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, served as a wildlife correspondent for the Today show and showed up (with a hawk) as a guest on a talk show hosted by Kramer (Michael Richards) out of his apartment on a 1997 episode of Seinfeld.

On Monday, July 26, famed rock producer, manager, and lyricist Sandy Pearlman died at the age of 72. His Wikipedia page says he "was the recipient of 17 gold and platinum records." He managed that despite not actually producing many bands, or even albums -- but he left a big imprint on every one he worked on.
Born in Rockaway (Queens), NY in 1943, he got a college degree at the State University of New York at Stony Brook on Long Island in 1966.
A year later, still in the Stony Brook area, he recruited a band so he could have a series of science-fiction poems he'd written (the Imaginos saga, about a group secretly controlling world history) set to music and performed. He named the band Soft White Underbelly after Winston Churchill's epithet for Italy, but changed its name to Oaxaca after Soft White Underbelly got a negative review at a big concert.

Snoop Dogg loves nature - especially when it’s smokable or edible. But it turns out the Doggfather’s love for the great outdoors extends well beyond cannabis, and he’s brought it to YouTube. The legendary rapper behind such hits as “Gin and Juice” and “Who am I?” has launched a video series called Planet Snoop on his Merry Jane channel. It was no doubt inspired by his "Plizzanet Earth" sketches on Jimmy Kimmel Live! and furthered by an online petition encouraging Snoop to make the show. To date, it’s gathered more than 65,000 signatures. In the first episode, Snoop offers commentary as a squirrel and a snake battle for supremacy. The profanity-laced play-by-play is delivered in a style only he can provide. Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom, it’s not. It’s better.

In the rundown of “Wait! What?!” questions raised by the premiere episode of CBS’ new summer thriller, Zoo, “Why are lions waging an organized war against humans?” barely cracks the Top 5.
For starters, after seeing his best friend seemingly mauled to death by a lion in the back of a van, how come handsome safari guide Jackson Oz (The Crazy Ones‘ James Wolk) isn’t a blubbering, wild-eyed mess, but instead apologizing for the quality of the coffee he’s serving to a pretty/traumatized Frenchwoman?

Like those old episodes of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom where the straggler impala gets picked off by the hungry lioness, The Voice‘s Battle Rounds are compelling (though not necessarily comforting) viewing.
Only the strongest voices — or at least those attached to the youngest, doe-eyed-iest, most social-media-approved bodies — survive the two-person, one-song contests.
And while I understand those who wince at the inherent cruelty of whittling a pool of 48 singers down to 32 (eight Battle “losers” get second chances via The Steal), it’s nevertheless a necessary evil. I mean, let’s be honest: After three consecutive weeks of Blind Auditions,...

Adjust your documentary-watching gauge closer to “Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom” (or, for the kids, Animal Planet) and further away from “Werner Herzog discovers one of the last unspoiled places left on earth,” and you'll have a perfectly enjoyable time watching “Deepsea Challenge 3D,” the kind of no-nonsense, by-the-numbers doc that captures a rather extraordinary feat: film director James Cameron and his team submerging a vessel (sole passenger: the director of “Titanic”) miles downward into the Mariana Trench. It's the kind of film that should be screened in schools as a reminder that math and science are important, and that.

It wouldn’t be an episode of True Blood if there wasn’t somebody trying to kill Sookie. So the surprise in this week’s outing, “F— the Pain Away” (“Flap the Pain Away”? Huh?), isn’t that our heroine’s life is in jeopardy but who puts it in jeopardy. Of course, since this is a recap, not a preview, even that surprise probably won’t exactly shock you. But let’s pretend you don’t already know the identity of the fairy’s attacker and run through the hour’s highlights, anyway, shall we?

Should we be counting it as a victory that the National Enquirer is gossiping about gay celebrities just like any other? Because now they're reporting that Lance Bass is marrying Lorenzo Martone with Justin Timberlake as his best man.
The 2018 Winter Olympics will be held in Pyeongchang, disappointing my copy editors immensely, because they know I'll never be able to spell that consistently. It's also bad news for NBC, who owns the TV rights to something they won't be able to air live due to the time difference.

In the least surprising news of the year (and in a year that's already seen the revelation that Schwarzenegger has an illegitimate kid and that Donald Trump doesn't Actually intend to run for president, that's saying something) the Rapture didn't happen yesterday. I don't know anyone who genuinely believed it would happen so no one I know is disappointed or betrayed or anything like that. (Also, is it just me or is it massively presumptuous to believe that you as a person are holy enough to be taken in the Rapture? Wouldn't that count as being overly prideful and disqualify you from being Rapture-worthy? Thoughts for another day.) Now we can all relax until some new cultural zeitgeist grabs our attention.

Sunday has been one of those days that I find confusing to refer to, because I consider it the end of the week but calendars and some very wrong people consider it the beginning of a new week. It's certainly not the kind of difference of opinion to fight wars over or anything, but just a sort of mental perception. Are you spending your whole week looking forward to "The Killing" and other Sunday shows, or do you start your week off with them and then spend the rest of the week waiting for a new episode? Then again, since I'm currently unemployed and job hunting it's really just another day in a series of days that I get to wear pajama pants and spend most of my day on the couch in front of my computer. Actually, that sounds less like I'm unemployed and more like I'm a successful blogger.

Trailers are an under-appreciated art form insofar that many times they’re seen as vehicles for showing footage, explaining films away, or showing their hand about what moviegoers can expect. Foreign, domestic, independent, big budget: I celebrate all levels of trailers and hopefully this column will satisfactorily give you a baseline of what beta wave I’m operating on, because what better way to hone your skills as a thoughtful moviegoer than by deconstructing these little pieces of advertising? Some of the best authors will tell you that writing a short story is a lot harder than writing a long one, that you have to weigh every sentence. What better medium to see how this theory plays itself out beyond that than with movie trailers? The Legend Of The Mighty Soap Trailer When I was a kid I watched HBO relentlessly. Whenever there wasn't reairings of Fraggle Rock, Braingames, Heartbeeps,...

Sunday night always makes me sad that I can't afford the premium channels because I'd love to be watching either "The Borgias" or "Game of Thrones." I'd probably be able to follow "The Borgias" a little bit better, but "Game of Thrones" looks extremely pretty and people keep talking about it and I just wish I could be one of the cool kids who actually gets to watch it. I mean, yeah, sure, DVDs will be coming out later but that's Forever from now and then I won't have anyone to talk to about it because everyone else will be all "Yeah, way ahead of you." Maybe there should be "book clubs" or something similar for series that have come out on DVD so there's a way people watching them for the first time can have somewhere to talk about the show without having to worry about spoilers, or annoying their friends.

Well, Sunday night TV keeps getting better and better. Tonight we have the premiere of "Game of Thrones" which is based on one of those book series that seems to divide people evenly between those who adore it and those who haven't read a single word. I'm in the second group so that's all I'll say about that and leave the real discussion to those of you who know what you're talking about. "The Killing" is on, which I'm enjoying so far though I have no real theories as to who is guilty. To me, those conversations defeat the point of these shows where the real fun is watching the whole thing unfold rather than turning it into some sort of competitive guessing game. I also find guessing who the killer is makes you less open to new information and hints because you end up just looking for clues that confirm your conclusion.

This column is late tonight, for reasons I'm not at liberty to disclose, but it's a shame because there's actually a lot of good TV on tonight. Although it's bittersweet, because some of it is due to mini series that are ending, and despite there being more good TV on, there's still the usual amount of awful television. But it's much easier to avoid when you've got something that will distract you from that. Anyway, here's your Sunday night TV and apologies for being late in posting it:
7:00pm: "60 Minutes" on CBS
"Dateline NBC" on NBC
"Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom" on Animal Planet
7:30pm: "American Dad" on Fox

While growing up in the late Sixties to early Seventies, one of the favorite television shows in our house was Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom with host Marlin Perkins. We loved watching wild animals in their natural habitat along with the challenges faced by Perkins and his field correspondents Jim Fowler and Peter Gros. Similar in nature was the classic film Born Free (1966), which told the story of female lion cub Elsa raised to maturity by a Kenyan game warden. Elsa is re-educated so that she can be released back into the wild. Both Wild Kingdom and Born Free left out the violence experienced in the wild, a pattern followed by IMAX documentary Born to Be Wild.
Directed by David Lickley and narrated by Morgan Freeman, Born to Be Wild focuses on two inspirational women, primatologist Birute Galdikas and elephant expert Daphne Sheldrick, who both work with orphaned animals to...

There are several large television events happening tonight, unfortunately most of them are happing on premium channels (premiere of "The Borgias" and the first segment in "The Kennedys" mini-series) or on a pay-per-view basis ("Wrestlemania 27" hosted by The Rock which is probably the only reason to watch). So that means unless you can afford the Starz networks, Showtime, or feel like spending somewhere around $65 dollars, there's actually not too much to be excited about on TV tonight. Sorry. Here's your Sunday night TV:
7:00pm: "60 Minutes" on CBS
"America's Funniest Home Videos" on ABC
"Dateline NBC" on NBC
"Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom" on Animal Planet. Ninth season premiere.

Today’s short is a spot-on parody of wildlife programs that would make the creators of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom tear up and applaud. Beyond its humor, the animation is clever and crisply done, and the educational value is immense. If you find yourself stranded in the desert, this video could save your life. Why Watch? It’s funny, yeah, of course. But it also uses an iconic movie monster as its scientific specimen. I would love to say which one, but the impact of that oh-so-British narrator’s voice saying it for the first time is far too good to ruin. What Will It Cost? Just five minutes of your time. Does it get better any better than that? Only if we gave you an ice cream sandwich to eat while you watched.

It’s Week Nine on The Bachelor, and how is our protagonist doing? “I’m terrified of ending up alone,” says Brad. Hrmm. Approaching your search for a prospective marriage partner from a place of pure panic and desperation? That doesn’t sound very healthy. But since Brad is no longer wasting time on weekly sessions with his “as-seen-on-tv” therapist, let’s assume everything’s coming up roses.
“I am ready to talk to these women on a very intimate level, individually, and see if there’s a future here,” says Brad, and while I applaud his use of the...

The diminutive designers show a fabulous and furry Fall 2011 collection!
Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen may have been labelled “The Trollsen Twins” by PETA, who famously fumed: “Mary-Kate and Ashley have ignored pleas to stop wearing fur and are still using it in their fashion collection,” — but it does not seem to be effecting these mini moguls one bit! The tiny twins Fall 2011 collection for The Row, shown by private appointment in NYC Feb. 14, felt like an episode of Wild Kingdom! Fabulous fox furs in black, caramel, and even turquoise blue as well as a shiny crocodile top and backpack from their super expensive debut handbag collection.
While all this fur is likely to cost fans of the label a pretty penny, they may still be able to pick up a pair of luxurious shoes the pair have created. The duo’s cashmere Toms shoes they made in collaboration with the buy-a-pair,...

On this episode of Rehab: Party at the Hard Rock Hotel, Matt still hates Sharon, the feeling is still mutual, and everyone else is still caught in the middle. Actually, I’m pretty sure that describes all of this season and most of last.
It’s nine in the morning and there’s a really big snake poolside that apparently only one guy can see and no one else can find. This is not Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom, but Sharon and her security team are dispatched on a snake search anyway. Meanwhile, Matt goes to his pre-shift meeting, where he warns everyone that it’s going to be really, really hot. Wow, he’s actually concerned about someone’s well-being. I am stunned.
Sharon tells her security officers about the fiasco with the door host from last week, and warns them again about the phantom snake. “Do we...

Oh my god, did you hear what Tenley said about Elizabeth? She like, totally, called her out for doing "it" with Kovacs in the shower. I know, right?!
Wow, what a crowd of overgrown high schoolers. Using language like "the outsiders," "the cool kids" and the ever popular "clique," the remaining Bachelor Pad dwellers devolved into vicious, unruly teens last night as they jockeyed for social supremacy within the house. It was like that Wild Kingdom scene in Mean Girls, only with giant fake breasts, oddly hairless, overworked torsos and Chris Harrison as the befuddled principal....

How Is It May?!? God, this spring is just whipping by for me and now my classes are all over and I've got to start thinking about packing and storage spaces and finding a place to live next year and it always sneaks up on me. Anyway, it also means we're headed into the time of year when shows start ending, unless you're a fan of "Friday Night Lights" like me and remember that it starts this Friday! Awesomely! Same day "Iron Man 2" comes out! So there's a lot to look forward to this first week in May as long as you like the same things I do. And if you don't, well, it's my column.

I'm currently caught in one of those evil cycles where there is no winning. I took my last test in one class! So now I can devote more energy to that project due this week. I got the final reading done for that other class! Which means I have a little more time to practice for that opera I'm playing next week. Any accomplishment is swiftly negated by the fact that there is just so much else I need to get done that free time is something I have to schedule rather than something I can stumble across after a particularly proactive afternoon. Here's a list of all the TV I won't be watching tonight because I'll be too busy working, playing my bass, cleaning up the disaster that is my room, or some combination of all three:

I tend to consider my Sundays successful if I can stay in pajamas for the whole day. I will go out of my way to push errands onto Saturday or Monday to ensure that I can spend Sunday being a hermit. I use it as an opportunity to focus my energy on all the things I need to do that don't involve leaving the house. It's not my fault that my house just happens to have my bed in it, and that as I'm being totally responsible and productive it just sits there, reminding me of the nap I could be taking. Especially considering that I wouldn't even have to change, because I'm already in pajamas. I don't start out planning to be especially lazy, but that's how it usually ends up. And I'm cool with that. Here's what's on TV tonight:

Against all odds I've actually managed to be marginally productive this weekend despite sleeping way too late both days and the associated hassles and time suck of making a police report because my bike got stolen. I'm looking forward to the end of the semester so I can go back to having weekends that can be spent doing my best impression of someone with narcolepsy before I get bored with that and start seeking out new projects to fill my time. And after next week I won't have any more "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" to watch on Saturdays for a very very long time, so I'll have to find something to fill that gap. Here's your Sunday night TV:
7:00 p.m.: "60 Minutes" on CBS.
"America's Funniest Home Videos" on ABC.
"Dateline" on NBC.
"Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom" on Animal Planet.
"'Til Death" on Fox.
8:00 p.
